The hypothetical cause could be accidental US detonation of a nuclear warhead but assigning blame isn’t their job disaster recovery is. It’s much better to have a plan than try to make stuff up on the spot so horrific but unlikely threats should be planed for.

Glutathione is also increased in the Liver with Nicotinic Acid which will also help the body in a nuclear attack situation.
