Radiation levels were now declining and consume local products was "our way to support the area," he said.

UN nuclear experts also suggested dishes from the region was safe.

The comments came as Japan classified the nuclear threat to the highest level on a scale of nuclear accidents.

Officials say the decision to raise the rating on level seven which as a whole is release of radiation at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, rather than a sudden deterioration.

Level seven previously only on the disaster at Chernobyl in the Ukraine, where 10 times more radiation emitted was applied in 1986.

In a press conference on Tuesday, Mr Kan said: "people should not fall into an extreme restraint mood." You should life as normal.

Farmers in Fukushima region, but also outside the Government imposed exclusion zone around the crippled plant, have struggled to convince the Japanese public that their products are safe.

So a Geiger counter to check their point brought their food directly in the capital and available provided. A Government Minister has used his bit with all my heart to a tomato on the cameras.

The product sold out said within an hour, a trader, on the whole, grinning. But what works locally may not so effectively worldwide. China has again asked to Japan, providing quick and accurate information.

"Consuming products from the regions, which is affected also our way to the area to support."

He added: "Step by step the reactors at the power plant Fukushima Daiichi move in the direction of stability."

The IAEA Denis Flory says "The situation is all very seriously"

"At the moment, little public health outside the 30-km (evacuation) is zone."

The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant cooling systems damaged trigger earthquakes in North-East Japan and the tsunami in the last month.

Workers fought to prevent several reactors from overheating.

Officials have warned that it several months before the situation at the nuclear facility is fully brought under control.

Last month earthquake and tsunami triggered left it 13,228 dead and missing 14,529.
