Japan: Small Amounts Of Radioactive Iodine Found In Breast Milk Of 4 Women, Bernama (Malaysian National News Agency), April 21, 2011:

A citizen's group concerned about the impact on mothers and babies of the radioactive leaks from a crippled nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture said that small amounts of radioactive iodine have been found in the breast milk of four women living east or northeast of Tokyo.
Of the samples provided by the four women, the breast milk of the mother of an 8-month-old baby in Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture, contained the highest level of 36.3 becquerels of radioactive iodine per kilogram, but no radioactive cesium was found, reports Japanese news agency Kyodo News quoting the group. …
"We cannot yet determine safety, but infants drink breast milk. We want the government to conduct an extensive investigation swiftly," said Kikuko Murakami, who heads the group.
The samples of around 120 to 130 milliliters each were offered by nine women in Chiba, Miyagi, Fukushima and Ibaraki prefectures on March 24 and 30. The group had them analyzed at a private-sector radiation measurement company. …

Dangers of bio-accumulation

What to do to protect ones family and self?
The first priority is to ensure reasonably pure drinking water. For those new to this site, I have written in detail in the comments section of this site. I have posted my best recommendation on how to response to the threat of low level radioactive contamination in potable drinking water.

In this case it’s actually NO ZEOLITE FOR THE JAPANESE!! The medical Gestapo was recently spotted working in Japan getting the police to charge two people with the selling of zeolite. The substance, sold as “Premium Zeolite,” was billed as absorbing radioactive substances and allowing the body to excrete them within six hours. The two were charged with selling medicine without a license. A month later we hear that they are using tons of zeolite at the nuclear plant to
