The Health Ranger's Preparedness Tips

He gives lots of good advice....

"Dear NaturalNews readers,

As the world seems to be getting crazier with each passing day, we're getting hammered with requests to offer more preparedness solutions.

So in this email, I'm sharing a collection of tips that can mean a world of difference in any kind of emergency scenario: Natural disasters, nuclear accident, social unrest, collapse of the dollar, etc.

Tip #1: The very best item for light + defense

People who know me also know that I always carry a flashlight. It's clipped into my pocket all the time so that I'm never without a source of light. But this particular flashlight, which I'm about to reveal here, is also a physical defense item because it has a "crusher" metal rim that can be used to beat back an attacker, if needed. The light is solidly built and runs on a CR123A battery (commonly available).

It's an LED light, so the bulb is virtually breakable. It's also super bright, putting out an astonishing 200 lumens of light. And yet, it's small enough to carry in your pocket 24/7. I've carried mine through South America, Central America and North America. It has never failed and has stood the test of time. The construction and engineering are superb.

What flashlight is it? It's the E2D LED Defender from Surefire. It's available on Amazon and many camping websites. It's expensive, but you only have to buy it once. It's rugged and reliable. I recommend this as my No. 1 "preparedness" flashlight. Here's the Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/SureFire-E2D-LED-Lumens-E2DL-BK/dp/B001QU6RTQ

Be sure to stock up on CR123A batteries, too. Amazon.com sells a pack of Tenergy CR123A batteries that cost less than a buck each. Yeah, that's major savings, because the same batteries can cost $4 - $5 if you buy them at retail stores. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-Lithium-Batteries-capacity-1300mAh/dp/B000OD7178/



Tip #2: The five best practical skills to master right now

What are the top skills for preparedness and survival? After reviewing numerous books on preparedness and survival, I've come to the conclusion that the top five skills to master are:

1) Foraging. How to find food in the wild, or turn weeds into a meal. (There's food all around you!)

2) Welding. Let's you repair and build all sorts of important things. 

3) Sewing and clothing repair. Shoe repair is also extremely valuable.

4) Barter. Crucial skill set for getting by when the dollar is long gone.

5) Food storage. Do you know how to store the products from your own garden? Canning, drying, salting and freezing... 

Each of these skills is not only valuable to you and your family, but also valuable in trade with others. Lots of people will need their shoes repaired, for example. But very few people know how to repair shoes... (in our throwaway society, we just buy a new pair!)


Tip #3: What's the No. 1 source for emergency vitamins and live foods? Sprouts!

Yes, if you have sprout seeds and water, you can literally "grow" your own live food vitamins, even without sunlight or soil! That's why I think every preparedness list should include a seed sprouter and a collection of sprouting seeds.

We offer the Easy Green Sprouter at the NN store (click here for the sprouter page). You can also find it at Amazon and other retailers. BTW, you can also sprout seeds using nothing more than a glass jar and a sprouting lid, if you want to do it on a small scale. You don't really need fancy equipment to sprout seeds, unless you're trying to do it on a larger scale.


Tip #4: Get your "Economic Survival" squared away

Are you ready for the coming collapse of the dollar? In this three-hour audio series, I join Robert Scott Bell in providing the strategies and tips you need to economically insulate yourself from what I call "the coming economic storm."

This three-hour course includes a downloadable PDF action document and a PowerPoint presentation to go along with the audio. Recorded LIVE on March 20th, and available now with instant access through Webseed.com (click here).


Tip #5: Storable superfoods

The typical storable foods (MREs and camping foods) are loaded with junk ingredients and chemical additives. Most are made with textured soy protein (yuck). I'm not sure I could even live on that stuff.

How do you get actual superfood nutrition in a long-term storable format? To answer that question, I created www.StorableOrganics.com where we pack long-term storable superfoods and organic foods so that you have some serious nutrition on the shelf in case there's an emergency situation.

We haven't even announced this on the website yet, and we've already sold out of the storable chlorella (for at least a month). But we do have storable spirulina and other superfoods available right now, and yes, this is the American-grown spirulina from Hawaii. It's packed in #10 cans (that's a number-ten can, not a ten-pound can, just FYI) that are mouse-proof.

Inside the cans, we use a BPA-free bag that insulates the spirulina from the enamel liner of the steel can. So your superfood never touches the can lining.

The shelf life is 8+ years if kept cool. That's almost a decade with some superfood nutrition on the shelf that you can turn to in a crisis.

Find our storable spirulina and other long-term storable superfoods by clicking here.

BTW, even though we're sold out of regular chlorella, we do have herb-infused chlorella tablets packed into two #10 cans. This collection features a total of 10,000 chlorella tablets infused with various herbs (Ginkgo, Ashwagandha, Turmeric, Tribulus, etc.) in two sealed steel cans. This is a unique collection that has never been offered anywhere else, especially not in a long-term storable format. Click here for details.


Also: Coming soon...

We have a new food security preparedness seminar coming out soon, featuring myself (Health Ranger) and Robert Scott Bell. In addition, we've filmed Daniel Vitalis in a "Surthrival" course that teaches all sorts of practical, real-world skills and items that can help you through any challenging scenario. That's coming soon to Webseed.com, the new how-to video empowerment platform.

Watch for those courses in the weeks ahead. In the mean time, we'll keep posting news and stories on NaturalNews.com that cover Fukushima, the collapsing U.S. dollar, GMOs, the food supply, the radical weather events and much more.



Please stay safe! The world needs you to stick around to help rebuild...

Japan Radiation Crisis Update

From www.NaturalNews.com  ... a good summary:

 

Here are the latest developments on the Fukushima catastrophe, including quotes from a well-known physicist who is now raising the alarm over "three raging meltdowns" at the Fukushima complex.

Please forward this email to those who need to see this information.

* As the Wall Street Journal reports (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703806304576233221749626458.html), the U.S. government has now admitted that radiation is being found in milk from Washington state. They say it's "safe" to drink, of course. That's the U.S. government for you: Irradiated milk is safe, but raw milk is dangerous!

* The battle to save Fukushima is now over, as Japanese officials admit the nuclear power complex must now be abandoned and entombed (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1371793/Fukushima-nuclear-plant-entombed-concrete-Japan-admits-lost-battle-crippled-reactors.html?ito=feeds-newsxml). The Dailymail published, "officials said it would mean switching off all power and abandoning attempts to keep the nuclear fuel rods cool." The problem with that, of course, is that there are already "three raging meltdowns" under way as Dr. Kaku explains (below). If you abandon efforts to cool the fuel rods, then an accelerated meltdown is "inevitable," says Dr. Kaku.

* Japanese nuclear experts now admit it will require 20 years to decommission the Fukushima nuclear reactors. (http://english.kyodonews.jp/news/2011/03/82090.html)

* Cesium-137 has now been found 25 miles from Fukushima at such dangerously high concentrations that they far exceed the threshold of land abandonment used by the Soviet Union following the Chernobyl catastrophe (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/31/world/asia/31japan.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss). This is raising questions of whether the evacuation zone around Fukushima should now be expanded.

* It has now been revealed that Japan's nuclear disaster preparedness plans were written by complete morons. [Didn't I say their nuclear industry was being run by Homer Simpson?]  The entire Fukushima power plant complex, for example, called for only one emergency stretcher to be on-site, and only 50 protective suits (even though hundreds of people worked there). Do you see shades of the TITANIC at play here? (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703712504576232961004646464.html)

* In a shocking video interview, physicist Dr. Michio Kaku explained, "If it goes to a full-scale evacuation of all personnel, it means that firefighters are no longer putting water onto the cores. That's the only thing preventing a full-scale meltdown at three reactor sites. Once they evacuate, then we past the point of no return. Meltdowns are inevitable at three reactor sites, leading to a tragedy far beyond that of Chernobyl, creating permanent dead zones in Japan." Watch that video at: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=604AB3FA803FF3647DF6E34EC5E8C8A0

* Meanwhile, the Fukushima denialists are in full swing, complaining that anyone talking about Fukushima's meltdown is "fearmongering." One especially idiotic journalist in the UK constructed a completely fabricated article today, claiming that "nobody has suffered or will suffer any radiological health consequences [from Fukushima]." How's that for a total denial of reality? This writer goes on to say, "The nuclear power plants in the stricken region have suffered less damage and caused less trouble to local residents than anything else that was there." (I'm not linking to this source because they don't deserve the attention, but trust me, this is from a major newspaper in the UK.) It just goes to show you that these spin doctors will stop at nothing to try to convince people that nuclear power is the safest thing in the world. There's little question that most of these denialists are on the payroll of the nuclear industry (or just hate the human race for their own twisted or demonic reasons).

* As reported by the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/31/world/asia/31japan.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss), "The level of radioactive iodine 131 in the waters off the Daiichi plant continued to increase on Thursday, rising to 4,385 times the statutory limit... The increases raise the possibility that contaminants from the plant are continuously leaking into the sea."

* Fears about radioactive seafood are growing as Japan's ocean waters are increasingly contaminated with very high levels of radiation, now even exceeding the 3,300 times recently reported (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Tainted-seafood-fears-spread-apf-166668369.html?x=0&.v=19).

Urgent Radiation Preparedness Action Items

From the Health Ranger:

http://www.naturalnews.com/031731_radiation_preparedness.html

Important action items to take right now

If you live in the western states or provinces of North America, it is extremely important to be prepared by taking the following actions RIGHT NOW:

1) Fuel up your vehicle(s) and be ready to hit the road for a possible evacuation (or hunker down if you're out in the country and feel like you would be safer there).

2) If you plan to stay put, go to the hardware store TODAY and buy large amounts of plastic sheeting and duct tape to seal up your windows and doors. This will help protect you from radioactive fallout. You will also need to store water, food, and all the usual emergency supplies because outside help probably won't be available.

3) If you plan to evacuate, have a "Go Bag" ready to go at a moment's notice. This go bag should include a water filter, emergency radio, flashlight, duct tape, emergency knife, spare cash, whatever medical supplies you might need, extra food and water, spare fuel cans and so on. Have it ready now in case you need it.

4) Significantly increase your intake of iodine-containing foods and superfoods starting right now: Seaweeds are a great source. We've listed our entire inventory of what we have available at our store (http://www.naturalnews.com/031730_i...), but I would actually prefer you to go out and get this locally TODAY at your local health food stores, where possible. You may not have time to wait on a UPS delivery. Fortunately, our store ships from Ojai, California, meaning that if you order foods from us today that are in stock, and you're in California, you could receive them very, very quickly (within 1-2 business days).

5) If you have potassium iodide pills (radiation pills), don't take them yet. Keep them ready to take if and only if a meltdown event occurs and a massive dose of radiation has been released into the atmosphere.

6) Have a plan for you and your family. Where will you meet if you need to evacuate? Don't count on cell phones working. Have a plan of where to go, how to get there and how to survive once you get there.
