Which vitamins and supplements would you stockpile for when the SHTF with limited funds?

50,000 IU vitamin D3 pills for sure. Basically universe vaccine against many types of bacteria and virus.

Is that the daily dose for adults and what is the dosage for infants and young children?

Flintstones Chewables ......(the ones with the dye and aspertame are the best)!

Pro biotics, keep your gut healthy, and a good multi.

As many multi-vitamins as you can afford. Plan on 1 per day per person.

This simple stockpile, which you will keep sealed, will allow life when diverse food sources are scarce.

Anything after this basic stockpile is fair game, depending on your opinion, but at least have this.

If there is any money left over after the multi-vitamins, it should be spent on antibiotics.

If you are no limited funds, anything else would be a waste. You want to have basic health and basic drugs to fight simple diseases.

I already have the stuff to make colloidal and I am sold on it's benefits. Just wondering what else to add.

mostly i would concentrate on wild food plant and know
what the vit properties of each plant may be.

the exception is vit c although i know many wild sources
rose hips and pine needdles for example i want a good store
of the syuff ready to go.

ive been lacking vit c it happened quickly an i didnt like the results

Oil of Oregano is good for immunity as well as Vitamin C (also fresh oregano would work I guess, as well as pine needles for Vit C).

I use Tea Tree Oil and Colloidal Silver for external cuts/problems.

Wormwood extract and/or Papaya Leaf Extract - both work wonders against parasites and malaria. Papaya Leaf Extract also greatly increases your red blood cell count.

Kelp extract contains natural iodine that your body absorbs much easier than iodine tablets.

Activated charcoal absorbs lots of toxins as well, especially carbon-based toxins like benzene (by product of crude oil).


So depending of the nature of the shit hitting the fan, the vitamins and supplements would be different. Vitamin D3 is always a good starter for every situation.

A good multivitamin, (not the shit you can buy in Walmart, obviously) plus Vitamin D3 capsules rated at 5,000 IU.

Zinc, magnesium, selenium, calcium, and iodine (Lugol's Solution) to cover the essential minerals.

how many of you would want to take the old rancid supliments in you cupboards?

make your own with renewable weeds growing in your yard

rose hips, lambs quarters, horse tails, burdock, plantain, dockweed, the list goes on, you can juice grass, dry plants, grind egg shells etc. so many many things, clay
rocks

none. they have never been scientifically proven to do anything for you but color your pee

That made me giggle.

70% off and due to expire, rancid

get a bone density test, you may be surprised.

Vit D would be high on my list

But also get at least one large box of Mucinex-DM. I just got over some flue like thing and Mucinex-DM was worth it's weight in gold....

You have a point there and a very good one as like canned goods they only last so long and how one stores them matters a great deal so the only true way forward is to learn how to grow the herbals we need.

i like Cell Food.

vit D go out side and work

What the heck is a chock?

WRONG. The safe daily dosage for an adult is 400 IU of Vitamin D.

Then this ones just for you hehehe

According to a U.S. research study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, the cells of multivitamin users may have a younger biological age than cells from non-supplement users.

Really? You can make a lot more than 400IU stood in a pair of shorts and a T shirt for 10 mins in the sun.

Yes they do do something for you, if you really want results you have to buy the exp kind from the health food store. I knew somebody who cleaned outhouses, he said he could not believe all the undigested pills that were on the bottom.
A multi vitamin/mineral
Vitamin E
Fish oil
Vitamin C

Best to eat healthy foods to get your nutrition, nothing out of a can or box!
Hear is a interesting site about all the minerals in sea water, seaagri.com

purslain, one of the most nutricious like all the other wild weeds have the most vitamines and minerals, you do not grow them you go out and harvest them in the wild

Plant Moringa trees NOW

WRONG. Vit A and Vit D are fat soluble, meaning that if you take too much they will build up in your body and can cause toxicity problems. For example, too much Vitamin A can damage your liver.
