You can eat things rich in iodine, such as wakame (ワカメ), 
nori (海苔), and kombu (昆布), harvested before the tsunami, 
so that your body has all the iodine it needs and is not 
hungry for iodine from tainted sources. 

As others have pointed out, it looks like the risks for most 
people from radioactive iodine are presently low.
