I had a scare over the weekend that had the doctors at the ER concerned that I was either having a problem with my heart or possibly a blood clot in my lung. I got a chest x-ray and a CAT scan as two of the tests (the other tests were EKG, blood and urine testing). I know that CAT scans contain high doses of radiation. Is there anything I can do to mitigate my exposure after the fact? Dietary changes, etc.? Supplements?
 
Actually thats a good question lol. Ive been thru Radiation treatments,MRI"s and Ct scans so im just flowing with radiation so it seems but i will check into your question and get back to you. Other than that i would say just watch what you eat i guess. For myself i dont eat much fried foods,eat some veggies and fruits, that seems to hepl me so far.
