Thyroid blocker
text:
Potassium iodide (KI) and potassium iodate (KIO3) are called thyroid blockers when used in radiation protection. If a person consumes a dose of one of these chemical compounds, his or her thyroid may saturate with stable iodine, preventing accumulation of radioactive iodine found after a nuclear meltdown or explosion.
