Recently, a wave of "anti-radiation health supplements" has been sweeping across the country. However, while people are eagerly embracing these supplements, they often overlook the anti-radiation foods that are readily available to us:
1. Red fruits, such as tomatoes, watermelon, and red grapefruit. These foods contain lycopene, the most powerful antioxidant among carotenoids, which is 100 times more effective than Vitamin E. It has an exceptional ability to scavenge free radicals.
2. Cruciferous vegetables, fresh fruits, and oils. Cruciferous vegetables include bok choy, mustard greens, cabbage, and radishes. Fresh fruits include fresh jujubes, kiwis, and oranges. Oils include soybean oil, olive oil, and sunflower oil. These foods contain Vitamins E and C. In addition to their antioxidant properties mentioned earlier, they can help create an "alkaline" internal environment, effectively dissolving and precipitating toxins within the body to facilitate their excretion.
3. Cod liver oil, animal liver, chicken, and egg yolks. These foods contain Vitamin A and carotenoids. Besides their anti-radiation effects, they also help protect vision.

4. Malt, sesame seeds, and Astragalus root. Because they contain selenium, they can block the body's peroxidation reactions and have anti-radiation and anti-aging effects.
5. Green tea and mung beans. Not only do they contain lipopolysaccharides and Vitamin A precursors which act against radiation, but they also promote the excretion of toxins from the body, thereby resisting various forms of pollution.
6. Kelp, seaweed, spirulina, etc. As an alkaline food, kelp can promote the excretion of radioactive substances from the intestines and reduce the accumulation of radioactivity in the human body.
