Grocery Store Junk Minerals - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Survival Food Nutrition Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

Let me begin by apologizing for not posting any new content for quite a while. The truth is that I've been moving my family into a new home and have been super busy getting all the moving done, the new home prepared, the old rental house cleaned, etc. Today is one of the first days that I feel like I actually have time to work on adding new content to my blog. Thank you for your patience and for not giving up on this important emergency disaster preparedness blog or website.

SPECIAL ALERT:

WHY MOST GROCERY STORE MINERALS ARE "JUNK"!

Most minerals supplements found in grocery stores are made from isolated or inorganic minerals. These types of minerals are not water soluble and are difficult for your body to absorb. According to experts, your body can assimilate NO MORE THAN EIGHT PERCENT of inorganic minerals you consume from these supplements. Just 8%! [Info. from TRC Nutritional Laboratories, http://www.trccorp.com/]

The best way to get the minerals you need each day is from plant-derived hydrophilic minerals. These minerals are 200 to 2,000 times smaller than inorganic minerals, plus they're water soluble and more easily digested by your body. In fact, almost 100 percent of a hydrophilic mineral can be absorbed by your body and made available for use.

The key phrase here is "plant derived" or "plant based." Yes, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and the thousands of naturally occurring nutrients found in plants, fruits and vegetables give you better nutrition than isolated synthetic vitamins - almost 100 percent. And as you'll see, The Feast [by Uri International] makes it easy for you to get this superior form of nutrition each and every day.

The above information was taken from a new and respected publication called Real Nutrition News Special 2008 Issue, Volume 1.

Sobering Words - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Survival Food Nutrition Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

GEORGE CARLIN SPEAKS SOBERING WORDS...

Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent...and so very appropriate.

A Message by George Carlin:

"The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stock room. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."

George Carlin

Emergency Radios - Disaster Preparedness Nutrition Survival Food Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

Emergency Radios for Natural Disasters and other Emergencies

Please take a few minutes and visit this link. You really need to do a little bit of research on the internet to find just the right kind of emergency radio for you and your family. This is one item you do NOT want to be without during a disaster, emergency, crisis, or national or regional emergency.

Corey Deitz shares the scoop on 7 different emergency radios, some of which are hand cranked.

I personally believe that every family should have some kind of emergency radio set aside for times of emergency, crisis, and disaster. I would recommend buying one that can be hand cranked that doesn't rely on batteries or electricity. It's better if you can find one that has several other functions on it such as a flashlight, solar panel, etc.

Check out this informative article on Emergency Radios by Corey Deitz.

Fuel Preparation - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Nutrition Survival Food Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

SEVERAL WAYS TO STAY PREPARED FOR EMERGENCY DISASTER SITUATIONS

These are some very practical things that you can do on a daily or weekly basis in order to STAY PREPARED for times of emergency.

#1. Always Keep Your Gas Tank Above the Half Full Mark

I confess that I'm notorious for letting my gas tank get all the way to empty and even below the empty mark. I often let the warning light come on and then continue to drive for another 20-45 miles. I realize now that this is a very bad habit and not good for my engine. In addition, when an emergency arises, I will not be prepared for it.

Why is it important to keep your gas tank on the full side? The reason is that when a disaster strikes, the gas in your tank could become extremely valuable to you. You may need it to drive your family out of a dangerous area that is threatened by hurricanes or tornados, or you may need it to run your car for a week or two if the local or state government shut down gas stations or enforce a quarantine in your area.

#2. Always keep your heating oil tank and/or your propane gas tank at least half full.

If you do this, you will be much more able to endure a long power outage when freezing weather could be a threat to your life. During winter blizzards, ice storms, hurricanes, etc., the power can be out for days or even weeks. It's always wise to have extra heating fuel or gas on hand to live through those long cold days and nights when no service truck is even able to reach your house.

#3. Always keep the propane tank to your gas barbecue at least half full. We did this when we lived in California under the constant danger of earthquakes. Having an outdoor gas barbecue is a good back up way to cook your food if the electricity goes out for an extended time or if the gas is shut off because of the danger of fire after an earthquake.

#4. Always store plenty of fresh drinking water for yourself and your family. Water is probably the most important and most valuable asset you will have during and after a disaster. Safe healthy drinking water is the most important as you and your family will need to drink it. You'll also need plenty of water for cooking, cleaning, and washing purposes. See one of my earlier postings on the best kinds of containers to store your water in safely.

Long Power Outages - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Nutrition Survival Food Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

ARE YOU PREPARED FOR LONG POWER OUTAGES?

Every year people have to deal with power outages as a result of snow storms, tornados, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms, earthquakes, etc.

If the power is out for only a few hours or part of a day, it's not a very big deal.

However, it is a big deal if it goes out for more than a day during extreme weather conditions such as cold or heat. If you have a lot of food stored away in your freezer, power outages can also cause you to lose your frozen food.

Are you prepared to live for 3 days or 7 days without power?

If not, you should consider getting a gasoline or kerosene generator that you can use to provide electricity to your house. Another option is to have propane gas on hand and have gas appliances. A third option is to at least have a wood stove stored away, along with some firewood to use to heat your home in the case of a major power outage.

These are just a few options for you to consider. It is something that you need to think about beforehand, so I encourage you to do some research now and make provision for this very probable emergency situation.

NOW is the time: 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.

Strong Immune System - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Nutrition Survival Food Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

Food for Thought that Could Save Your Life One Day Soon

If you're not taking care of your body today, in terms of what you are feeding it and in terms of exercise, what chance does your body have when a disaster or emergency strikes?

In other words, emergencies and disasters bring with them a lot of extra stress to your mind and to your body. Disasters are emotionally overwhelming because they suddenly and often without warning, alter or shatter our lives and daily routines. All of this puts an enormous amount of STRESS upon your mind, your emotions, and your physical body.

In order for your body to handle that stress, as well as your mind and emotions, you need to be prepared by cultivating a strong healthy body now based on optimal nutrition and plenty of exercise.

Think about it for a minute. How does a government prepare its citizen to deal with the incredible stresses of battle and war? They don't just draft a bunch of men and send them off to war. No, they first send them to basic training or "boot camp" in order to get them physically and mentally prepared for battle. In boot camp they shed excess weight, build strong muscles, get in top physical and mental shape, so that when they are eventually sent into battle, they are ready and their bodies and minds can handle the incredible stress that they will encounter and live under.

You and I need to think the same way about preparing for disasters. We need to enlist in the disaster preparedness army now, put ourselves through our own "boot camp" of health and nutrition training and physcial fitness, so that we are prepared physically and mentally to not only survive the coming disasters, but also overcome through them and be able to help a lot of other people who weren't prepared or who are weaker.

NOW is the time to get prepared. NOW is the time to change your diet. NOW is the time to start eating healthy nutrition. NOW is the time to claim health as your inheritance and create for yourself and your family a healthy and nutritious lifestyle. NOW is the time to get into shape and to stay in shape. NOW is the time to forsake the life of the "couch potato" and embrace the life of the disciplined new army recruit.

If you don't prepare NOW, then you won't be prepared when the disaster strikes. There will be no time to prepare once the crises hits. If you don't prepare NOW, your body will not be able to handle the stress and you will probably get very sick because your immunity level will be very weak from your undisciplined, unnutritious, and unhealthy lifestyle. You NEED to build a healthy immune system NOW. It doesn't just happen to you by itself; you have to work at it and feed your body what it really needs to be healthy and to fight off infection, illnesses, germs, viruses, etc.

DO NOT DELAY any longer! NOW IS THE TIME to prepare yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally. Now is the time to build a strong healthy immune system by feeding your body all of the good organic whole food nutrition that you can put into it.

NOW is the time: 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. BE PREPARED!

Store 3 Food Groups - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Nutrition Survival Food Dehydrated Meal MRE Pack Supplies Kit

Question:
What kind of nutritious food
should I be storing up for emergency disasters?

Answer:
You should focus on storing up healthy food from three basic whole food groups.

According to Dr. Paavo Airola, world-renown nutritionist, the optimum diet for superior health should be made up primarily of three basic whole food groups. These foods are universally adaptable and will supply adequate amounts of all the nutrients required for the maintenance of optimum health, including high-quality proteins in sufficient amounts. It is important to eat healthy and create your daily menu from foods of these three key food groups that are indigenous to your area and grown locally (on organic farms whenever possible). Make sure that your diet is composed of a variety of fresh whole foods from these three food groups.

#1. Grains, Legumes, Beans, Seeds, and Nuts - This is the most important and potent health-building food group of all. The good nutrition of these foods is unsurpassed because they contain the secret of life itself - the germ! The germ is the reproductive power and spark of life in all seeds, and it is essential to life, health, and reproductive ability. This food group contains all of the essential nutrients for human growth and maintenance of health. Even though all grains and seeds are beneficial, it is best to predominantly eat those that your ancestors ate and those that are grown locally.

Contrary to what you may have heard, buckwheat, almonds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and peanuts all contain complete proteins, which are comparable in biological quality value to animal proteins. This food group is also the best natural source of essential unsaturated fatty acids, which are necessary to maintain health. The vitamin content (especially vitamin E and the B-complex vitamins) of this food group is unsurpassed. Grains, nuts, and seeds are also a treasure chest of minerals and trace elements. Minerals also help balance the body chemistry, especially regarding alkalinity and acidity. This group also contains pacifarins, which increase the body's natural resistance to physical ailments. And finally, whole grains, legumes, beans, and seeds provide the body with necessary fiber and roughage content. This is critical to avoiding all kinds of colon and intestinal tract problems that currently plague our nation as a result of refined and processed foods.

The best grains to eat are buckwheat, oats, millet, and brown rice. Most other grains are beneficial, but be careful with wheat because it is one of the most common allergens today. These grains can be eaten daily in the form of cereal, porridge, breads, pancakes, soups, etc. or sprouted. Cooking grains or sprouting them actually helps release the vital minerals by breaking down the mineral-phytin bond so that minerals can be assimilated in the intestinal tract. The best seeds are flax seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds. Beware of sunflower seeds because they are extremely vulnerable to rancidity. The best nuts are almonds and hazelnuts. Do NOT buy roasted nuts and seeds because the high heat renders them carcinogenic. Always and only eat fresh raw nuts and seeds, including raw almond butter and raw peanut butter.

#2. Vegetables - This is the next most important food group to incorporate into your daily diet. Vegetables are a rich source of minerals, vitamins, and enzymes. Most green leafy vegetables also contain the highest quality complete proteins. Some vegetables, such as green beans, squash, yams, and potatoes, should be steamed or baked. However, most vegetables should be eaten RAW in the form of a daily salad. A few exceptions would be spinach and chard, which contain too much toxic oxalic acid, and asparagus. Cabbage-family vegetables should be either cooked or prepared in lactic-acid-fermented form. Garlic and onions are powerful health-promoting vegetables and should be part of your diet. Other excellent vegetables are Jerusalem artichokes, horse radish, black radish, celery root, and parsley. Be sure to also include root vegetables in your diet such as carrots, potatoes, beets, turnips, parsnips, and yams. Potatoes are extremely nutritious and are best baked or steamed. Keep in mind that potatoes must be kept in dark storage because a highly toxic chemical, solanine, develops when they are exposed to light. Also, be sure to remove the "eyes" (sprouts) of the potato before cooking.

#3. Fruits - Fruits are a powerful source of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, as well as easily digestible fruit sugars. In addition, they are an excellent cleansing food for breakfast, and they can be eaten between meals, but not with meals. It is best to eat fruits RAW, fresh, and in season, because they lose their vitamin content quickly. It is also beneficial to eat sun-dried fruits, but they must be unsulfured and preferably organically grown. Avoid all dried fruits with sulfur preservatives. The best sun-dried fruits to eat are raisins, figs, apricots, and currants. Now, two cautions about eating fruit: eat fruit in moderation and eat fruit on an empty stomach, by itself. Eating too much fruit will put too much sugar into your blood stream, and eating fruit with other foods will cause them to putrefy in your system and lead to poor digestion.

FOOD STORAGE OF THESE 3 MOST IMPORTANT FOOD GROUPS

The first group of grains, legumes, beans, seeds, and nuts can be easily stored in glass jars or metal containers. The grains and legumes can be easily cooked in water. The beans and seeds can be sprouted and then eaten raw. And raw nuts and seeds can be eaten as they are.

Question: How do I best store up on fruits and vegetables which are so important?
Answer: There are several things you can do to store up fruits and vegetables.

First, you can store up sun dried or dehydrated fruits and vegetables in glass jars or vacuum sealed in plastic bags. These will provide you with a lot of nutrition and take no cooking, and they are naturally preserved by being properly dehydrated. Remember to avoid buying "sulpher preserved" dry fruit.

Second, you can keep a supply of several bags of potatoes and other root vegetables in a dark cool place. Just remember to periodically replace them (maybe every 4 months for potatoes and yams and every 6 months for squash). It's surprising how long potatoes, yams, and squash will keep if they are stored properly. I would suggest storing some potatoes, sweet potatoes, various kinds of squash, and yams. All of these can be cooked during a disaster by wrapping them in foil and putting them near a fire to bake.

Third, if you have the space and time, grow produce in your own garden. Be sure to plant plenty of root vegetables, along with other nutritious greens. If you have food in the ground, you'll be better prepared to survive a disaster.

Fourth, make or buy some healthy organic pickled vegetables or lactic acid fermented foods such as sauerkraut which are very healthy for you. Fermented cabbage is very nutritious and can be stored in glass jars for easy use.

Fifth, there is one other way to store up nutritious fruits and vegetables that I'd like to recommend. Find yourself a product like The Feast, by Uri International, that uses an InstaFresh low heat dehydrating proprietary process to take fresh and mostly organic high quality fruits and vegetables, turn them into a juice, and then in 30 seconds, turns them into an InstaFresh juice powder without ever going over 98 degrees. These live whole food based InstaFresh juice powders preserve the nutritional properties of the fresh produce without preservatives and without pasteurization. They have a shelf stability and long-term shelf-life of two years. In addition, it takes less than 30 seconds to mix them with water and drink them, and they actually taste great! Believe me, my kids love them and yours will too. The nutritional value of these InstaFresh juice powders is unsurpassed by anything else in the marketplace.

Here are several of Uri's live whole food based InstaFresh juice powders to consider.

"The Feast" contains 70+ live nutrient dense concentrates from fresh live whole foods, including 30 antioxidant rich fruits & berries, 30 powerful greens and vegetables, 11 nutrient dense seeds, nuts, and sprouts, 83+ active enzymes & fulvic mineral blend, and 22 resilient living probiotics. It is literally the most powerful, nutrient dense live whole food nutritional product on the market today. It provides a quality, quantity, and variety of ingredients that is superior to sythetic, pasteurized, or preserved liquid and powder supplements. The proprietary low-temperature drying process concentrates live whole foods and fresh, raw juices into nutrient dense, great tasting, juice powders for the ultimate in all natural convenient nutrition.

"Beyond Berries" is a supreme blend of nature's most nutrient rich fruits and berries. It contains 15 antioxidant rich fruits and berries, 11 active enzymes & fulvic mineral blend, and 22 resilient living probiotics. It has a typical ORAC value (antioxidant value) of 4,140 per serving. It also includes such super fruits and berries as noni fruit, mangosteen, wolfberry-goji, acai berry, blueberry, pomegranate, cranberry, and 8 others. One jar makes approx. 180 fluid ounces of juice.

"Multi Meal" is a nutrient packed high-quality meal replacement that provides protein, amino acids, enzymes, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals in sufficient quantities. All you have to do is just add water, mix, and drink, and it comes in three delicious flavors - chocolate, vanilla, and orange. Multi Meal provides 20 grams of protein per serving.

In order to meet your nutritional needs during a time of disaster, I would strongly recommend storing up some of these long-term shelf-life Uri International live whole food based InstaFresh juice powders for you and your family. I consider them the most nutrient dense low heat dehydrated survival food available on the market, and I wouldn't be caught without them. All you'll need to do is to remember to store plenty of water and have some mixer cups to shake them up in.

Simply try these live whole food based InstaFresh juice powders for 90 days, and Uri is so sure you'll be absolutely convinced they are the most powerful and effective nutritional products you have ever tried, that they back it up with their ironclad, risk free 90-day money-back guarantee! If you're not 100% satisfied for any reason, you will be refunded 100% of the purchase price. Experience the results for yourself. There is absolutely no risk whatsoever on your part.
