| amywood71605 User ID: 5923082 12/03/2012 06:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very good question OP! I'm curious as well. Specifically - what should I have for 2 adults and 3 children- 3 boys (right now they are almost 9, 5 and 1 year old)? I've done ok with stocking up on food, water, T.P. - now I'm working on diapers, paper towels/baby wipes, medical supply/emergency kit and eventually my first gun =) Amy Wood Proud mother, wife, student and homemaker.

I think it's laboratory vitamins, which I'd avoid if I were you. You want plant and animal based stuff: [link to youngevityshopping.com (secure)] It is just fine, cheap, easy to stockpile, and high efficacy. Get at least 1 pill per person per day. Even an off brand is fine on a budget as you need a lot of these - IF you are on a tight budget, this is the way to go. Then purchase as many antibiotics as you need. Most of the advice here is expensive, not portable, not efficient (needs a lot of water, etc), and not practical in any way. If, however, you have a lot of money - you can follow the other recommendations and assumptions that plant X or root Y will be available to you on a daily basis. |
