Biggest Myth of All - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Survival Food Nutrition Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit


The Biggest Myth of All Disaster Myths is this:

"THE GOVERNMENT
IS GOING TO HELP
RESCUE ME."

If there was one very clear lesson that we should have all learned from the disaster, it was that you shouldn't depend on the government to rescue you from trouble when a disaster strikes.

Putting your trust and hope in your government to rescue you is dangerous and could cost you your life and the lives of your family.

I remember watching Hurricane Katrina from my cozy home in southern California while the disaster unfolded. I sat in shock as I saw the city of New Orleans flooded with water and people scrambling up onto their roofs to survive. What was most shocking to me was how long it took for government help to get to the families that were stranded on their rooftops and surrounded by the flood waters. I started counting the days and couldn't believe that three or four or five days had already elapsed without help. Then I saw a few brave souls in small boats going out looking for the living and helping to rescue them. I thought to myself that if I had had a boat, I would have headed for New Orleans and tried to rescue some of the people still stranded on their roofs without food and water to drink.

I just couldn't understand why these stranded people were not getting helped by the government or by hardly anyone else. I wanted to reach out and help but I couldn't from so far away. When I saw all the people stranded at the stadium, I felt the same way.

All of this caused me to evaluate how UNPREPARED we were as a nation, as a government, and as a people for major disasters. We simply were NOT prepared and did NOT act in time.

FEMA proved to be an empty hope for thousands of stranded and dying citizens. The government response was burdened down with mismanagement, red tape, confusion, and disorientation. Instead of a quick and effective disaster response, America watched as local, state, and federal government leaders did nothing, wrestled with authority issues, and blamed one another for inaction.

Fortunately, ordinary people from Christian churches and ministries were prepared to a certain degree and moved into action right away. After studying what really happened, it appears that the most responsive and fast acting people in the whole crisis were Christian churches that mobilized their members to go to the Gulf area and help with the disaster recovery process and the relocation of hundreds of thousands of .

Let me make an important statement right here on this important issue:

The Christian church in America has always been better prepared and equipped to help the poor and to help people recover from devestating disasters than the U.S. government, , and state and local governments. If you do your research, you'll find tons of Christian non-profit organizations, churches, and ministries, that are dedicated to helping people get through emergencies and disasters. One example of this is . These churches and ministries supply everything from food, water, clothing, blankets, medicine, medical care, counseling, pastoral care, reading material, sanitation facilities, shower and laundry facilities, etc. The reason the church is better equipped to help disaster survivors is because it is a part of the heavenly calling of the church to do so. It is one of their purposes here on the earth, so there is a special ability from God for the church to help people in this way.

I hope that you have learned the critically important truth that you should NOT depend upon the US government or FEMA to rescue you and help you during and after a major disaster. If you do, you will be greatly disappointed, let down, and angry, if you are still alive, that is.

Where does that leave you? It means that YOU and you alone must take responsibility to protect your life and the lives of your family and neighbors by taking the necessary steps to preparing NOW for future emergencies and disasters. NOW is the time to get prepared! Don't put it off another week. Start today to make a plan to gather the necessary resources, supplies, survival food, etc. that you will need to have stored close by for disasters that are sure to come. Stop believing the that the government will be there to help you or to resuce you. It won't!

Remember: the secret to surviving disasters is BEING PREPARED beforehand! Not next week, not next month, not next year, not when you have time, not when you think something bad is going to happen - but NOW.

Keep checking back with my postings as I will be providing you with a lot of more useful information and resources to help you get prepared now for the inevitable disasters on the horizon. You do NOT need to live in fear and anxiety - IF you are prepared to survive and overcome through whatever disasters strike next. BE PREPARED!

Our Motto: "Be Prepared to Survive and Overcome Disasters"

Avoid Liquid Juices - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Survival Food Dehydrated Meals MRE Pack Supplies Kit Bird Flu

Today I'd like to follow up my previous posting about with some additional information. I'm going to be comparing 's Beyond Berries supreme fruit and berry blend with some of its competitors on the market today.

MORE PROBLEMS with LIQUID SUPER JUICES

1. INGREDIENT QUALITY - Liquid berry products typically contain ingredients from a "juice concentrate" or "puree concentrate." Both are created through the use of head and/or vacuum. This denatures and compromises the nutritional integrity of the fruit or berry. In addition, these products may contain as little as 10% of the actual ingredient that the product is being marketed for.

2. EXPENSE - Liquid products are more expensive, particularly when you compare the nutrient content and serving size to Uri's Beyond Berries and the Feast products.

For example, one jar of Beyond Berries powder makes 180 ounces of reconstituted liquid juice, which equals 4-5 jars of any of our competitor's liquid products. The recommended daily serving for Beyond Berries powder is 10 grams mixed in 6 ounces of water. At this serving size, a jar of Beyond Berries powder lasts 30 days and is truly a month's supply.

Most liquid juice products suggest only 1 ounce of their product per day to create a 30-day supply. Did you catch that? Their serving size is ONLY ONE OUNCE!

According to information on the internet, here's how the other super juice products compare.

Monavie, MangoXan, Thai-Go, & Xango only have 24-25 ounces per bottle, all with a suggested serving size of only 1 ounce, providing 24-25 one-ounce servings per bottle.

Berry Young, Himalayan Goji, and Tahitian Noni only have 32-33 ounces per bottle, all with a suggested serving size of only 1 ounce, providing 33 one-ounce servings per bottle.
Now, compare the above numbers with Beyond Berries, which provides 180 ounces of super juice per bottle (300 grams of powder), with a suggested serving size of 6 ounces, providing 30 six-ounce servings per bottle.

In other words, Beyond Berries supplies SIX to SEVEN TIMES as much juice as its competitors per serving size and per bottle!

Beyond Berries is not only nutritionally superior and more cost effective ounce per ounce, but it supplies an adequate amount of each ingredient and recommends an appropriate suggested serving size to allow you to experience supreme health benefits.

3. PASTEURIZATION - Did you know that 98% of the liquid nutritional juice products on the market today are pasteurized? The pasteurization process uses high heat to kill bacteria and harmful microorganisms that create food-borne illness. While pasteurization appears to be a good thing, in reality it is not. The pasteurization heating process not only kills the bad bacteria, but it substantially alters or deactivates the majority of good, naturally occurring live nutrients that we consume the fruit or berry for in the first place!

Don't be fooled by terms such as "flash pasteurization." Pasteurization is just that - a process that always requires heat at a temperature higher than what the majority of live nutrients and enzymes can withstand. Many companies try to smooth over the pasteurization process by saying that their product has been "fermented," but in the end, after the fermentation process, pasteurization still must occur.

4. PRESERVATIVES - Many liquid super juice products contain preservatives such as sodium benzoate and/or potassium sorbate. Without such preservatives, these liquid juices could grow bacteria, naturaly decompose, and become rancid. While it is true that preservatives help prolong the shelf life of a liquid product, they are also known to cause a myriad of "mysterious" health problems. The FDA considers these preservatives "safe" in small amounts, yet anything more than a "small amount" is considered "unsafe and unhealthy." Because the majority of the processed foods we eat contain these same preservatives, it is not "safe" to say that we are getting "small amounts" when you take into consideration the fact that we are consuming these same preservatives on a daily basis throughout our entire lives.

Another commonly used preservative is Ascorbic Acid. Many companies use ascorbic acid in their liquid juice supplement to artificially and inexpensively increase ORAC values and vitamin C label claims, to preserve the product, and to try and compensate for the loss of nutrients due to pasteurization. This is known as "overdosing." You need to know that ascorbic acid is a synthetic, man-made version of vitamin C, and it is a poor substitute for vitamin C from natural whole food sources.

The addition of artificial preservatives and/or synthetic nutrients defeats the purpose of consuming an "all natural health product" in the first place. Our modern diet is already filled with depleted, over-processed foods. URI International believes that a natural food product should be just that - natural. Beyond Berries and the Feast both contain all natural, non-pasteurized berry and fruit powders from the whole food, without any preservatives or synthetic additives.

As you can see, Uri International's Beyond Berries (and the Feast) are far superior in every way when you compare them with the following pasteurized, preservative laden, more expensive, and inferior quality products made by: Vemma, Monavie, Xango, MangoXan, Thai-Go, Berry Young, Himalayan Goji, Tahitian Noni, as well as many other inferior super juice liquid products out there today. The best and only way to go today is with the live whole food based InstaFresh dry juice powders made by Uri such as Beyond Berries, the Feast, BarleyPure, etc.

I hope that the above information will enlighten you and help you make the wisest and healthiest choice when it comes to buying and consuming a super juice product for everyday use, as well as for storing up for that inevitable emergency or disaster when you will need the best nutrition you can get in a dry powdered form. All you need to do is to mix it with water. If you had to, you could eat it as it is. And the good news is - it tastes great!
