Not only is that false, it's also dangerous. In truth, iodine only protects from one radionuclide (iodine-131), which isn't anywhere near the most dangerous radioactive element unleashed in a nuclear war or nuclear accident.
To help educate and inform consumers about iodine and its legitimate uses, I've put together this iodine science article on IODINE.news which explains iodine's uses and limitations for nuclear fallout protection. As the Health Ranger, I'm the inventor of Cesium Eliminator, US Patent # 9526751, which eliminates radionuclides from the human digestive tract, so I've done a considerable amount of hands-on laboratory research involving elements with radioactive isotopes.
The article debunks several important iodine myths while explaining legitimate iodine uses. It also reveals seven surprising things most people don't know about iodine.
I consider it a must-read article for anyone buying, stockpiling or consuming iodine as a preparedness strategy. Yes, iodine is very useful and has its proper place in every prepper's list of items for nuclear events, but it's not a magical bulletproof vest against radiation. Far from it...

DISCLAIMER: My online store, called the Health Ranger Store, sells nascent iodine as a dietary supplement. That's why I'm so adamant that consumer know the full story on this supplement. I want people to use iodine safely and with full knowledge of its uses and limitations.
Mike Adams (aka the "Health Ranger") is the founding editor of NaturalNews.com, a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com called "Food Forensics"), an environmental scientist, a patent holder for a cesium radioactive isotope elimination invention, a multiple award winner for outstanding journalism, a science news publisher and influential commentator on topics ranging from science and medicine to culture and politics.
Mike Adams also serves as the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation.
In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.
