STRONG 5.4 EARTHQUAKE
SHAKES SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
This earthquake struck near Chino Hills, southeast of Los Angeles.
It was felt as far away as San Diego and Las Vegas.
Below is the link to this breaking story from Fox News.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,393781,00.html
I have precious family and friends living in southern California.
Whenever I hear of a strong earthquake hitting such a densely populated metropolitan area, I always fear that too many people are NOT PREPARED to survive and overcome the devestation that such disasters can bring. I pray that this one did not, but I also pray that more and more people would take serious precautions and start NOW preparing for what is sure to come in a much bigger and more tragic size.
NOW is the time to prepare for disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes,fires, etc.

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. Quite simply, the products prove themselves!

How to Choose Survival Food - Emergency Disaster Preparedness Dehydrated Meals MRE Packs Supplies Kits
WHAT KIND OF SURVIVAL FOOD SHOULD YOU STORE UP ON FOR DISASTERS?
This is a very important question that you need to answer. Is it enough to store up canned foods, bottle juices, and dry foods to prepare for the coming disasters?
To answer this question you would need to know something about good nutrition. I've studied nutrition and health for over 25 years, so I'd like to share with you some of the things I've learned that can help you make sure you're storing up the right kind of nutrient dense food and nutrition for a disaster or emergency.
Canned food is NOT nutritious or healthy for your body. It is loaded with sugars, salt, high fructose corn syrup, unhealthy preservatives, and "dead food." Canned food is NOT a good source of nutrition for you during a disaster or at any other time. Canned food is DEAD food and will leave you malnourished. It has been cooked or heated to a very high temperature during the pasteurization process, which means that any good nutrients have been killed by the heat.
What you need to eat during a disaster is live whole foods. You'll need to have access to grains, seeds, nuts, fruits, berries, greens, vegetables, etc. However, you need to plan as if you will not have any access to live fresh fruits and vegetables from your own garden or from a supermarket. Nevertheless, your body still needs them, so where can you get them in a dehydrated form that has a long shelf-life so that you can store them up for an emergency or disaster?
Your BEST CHOICE is to store up on low-temperature dehydrated powdered super juices that are made with live whole food based nutrition from fresh fruits, berries, greens, vegetables, seeds, nuts, and sprouts - all with no pasteurization, no preservatives, or no synthetic isolated vitamins or inorganic minerals. In this posting I would like to teach you HOW TO CHOOSE A SUPER JUICE nutritional product from the marketplace.

QUESTION: HOW DO YOU CHOOSE A SUPER JUICE NUTRITIONAL PRODUCT FROM AMONG SO MANY IN THE MARKETPLACE?
There are sooooooo many products and companies out there now selling healthy nutritional products, supplements, and super juice. I'm sure you've heard of many of them such as Xango, Himalayan Goji, MonaVie, Noni-Juice, Juice Plus, Mango-Xan, Thai-Go, etc.
My friend, if you're trying to decide which product is best for you, I'd like to share with you some insight that could help you make the wisest decision.
SEVEN THINGS YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHEN CHOOSING A SUPER JUICE PRODUCT
The biggest nutritional problems I've found with most of these products and companies include the following 7 issues:
1. Most of them are selling a liquid "super juice" that has been pasteurized and treated with preservatives to keep the product from becoming moldy on the shelf. By law, the FDA requires all liquid "juice" products to be pasteurized, which means that the fruit and/or berry juice has been processed by heating it to high temperatures to kill all bacteria. The process of pasteurization not only kills all of the bad bacteria, but it also kills most of the good bacteria and good nutritional compounds found in the juice. The original raw fruit and/or berry (such as mangosteen, wolfberry-goji, noni fruit, acai berry, etc.)certainly has a lot of powerful nutritive compounds in it, including antioxidants, vitamins, phytonutrients, etc. However, after undergoing the intense heating involved in pasteurization, the value of those fruits and/or berries have been greatly diminished and destroyed.
Now, let me ask you a question. Do you really want to be drinking a liquid super juice product that has been pasteurized with high heat, that has lost most of its nutritional value, and that has added chemical preservatives? I DON't.
2. Most liquid "super juices" sell you their product in a flashy heavy glass bottle that makes it look very appealing, but is very expensive to ship. However, the down side of this is that if you become a distributor for that product, you will end up having to pay a considerable amount on shipping and handling fees because, as everyone knows, glass is very heavy and expensive to ship. Can you imagine ordering a whole case and the exhorbinant cost of shipping? Even if the company doesn't use glass bottles, and instead uses plastic bottles, every one knows that shipping a heavy liquid product is much more expensive than shipping a light powdered product. Question: Do you really want to be buying and shipping heavy liquid products all over the country? Someone's going to be paying for that expensive shipping - either you or your poor customers.
3. Most liquid "super juices" are centered around one dominant super fruit or super berry. For example, whole companies have been built around noni fruit, or goji juice, or mangosteen, or acai berry. Granted, each one of these are truly "super" fruits or berries, but one super fruit/berry can't possibly have all of the 1,000s of nutritive compounds that a person needs in their diet. Yes, it's a great fruit or berry, but it's not enough. It's just one good food element. What about the many others that we need? Some of these companies have realized this point, and they have recently added additional fruits and/or berries to their formulas for this very reason. Now, instead of having just one "super" fruit or berry, they added 3 or 5 or 9 more to give them a more balanced and rounded product. Good for them, but it's still not enough. Question: Would you prefer getting the nutritional health benefits of 15 or 30 fruits and berries, or benefit only from 5 or 9? How important to you is variety and diversity in your super juice?
4. Most liquid "super juices" offer their customers a daily serving size of only 2 fluid ounces. In other words, a bottle of their super juice is a month's supply, and the daily serving size is only 1 fluid ounce. In my opinion, that is a very very tiny serving size that can't possibly have very much nutritional value over the course of a whole day. Question: Wouldn't you prefer having a daily serving size of 6-8 fluid ounces of your super juice? Wouldn't you feel like you were getting more nutrition from 6-8 ounces versus 1 ounce?
5. Most liquid "super juices" have compromised on the quality of their ingredients. As you're doing your research on various products and companies, make sure that they use all natural live whole food ingredients that are certified organic and/or are free of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. Also, make sure that they use NO PRESERVATIVES, NO FILLERS, NO EXCIPIENTS, NO ADDITIVES, NO DAIRY, NO GMO (genetically modified foods), NO PASTEURIZATION, and NO IRRADIATION. When it comes to your buying and consuming a super juice product, it's extremely important to make sure that you know what you're getting and where you're getting it from. You need to know what's in it and how it was processed. Ask lots of questions until you uncover the truth and the facts. Question: What's really in the product you're buying and drinking? Do you know all the ingredient and quality facts?
6. Some liquid "super juices" use processed sugars and/or artificial sweeteners that are unhealthy and cause all kinds of health problems. I was shocked to find that one very popular company puts high fructose corn syrup in their children's products. The only sweeteners that should be used in a super juice are raw honey, stevia, agave nectar, and naturally sweet fruit juices. Some of these companies actually put cheap "fillers" in their products in order to save money, resulting in the customer getting an inferior and less healthy product, so beware. Question: Are there artificial sweeteners and fillers in your super juice?
7. Most "super juices" only include fruits and/or berries, with very few if any vegetables and greens. Why is this? I don't know, but I can't see any reason for it. Question: Wouldn't you prefer getting fruits, berries, vegetables, and greens all mixed in your super juice for you and your children's nutritional health if it tasted good?
