1. Water
Without food, a person can survive for 1-2 months; but without water, life can only be supported for 10 days at most. An adult consumes 2-3 liters of water per day under normal conditions, and needs at least 500 milliliters of water per day under limited supply. (A large bottle of Coke is 1.25 liters, and iced tea is 500 ml, which can be used instead when there is a lack of measurements.) Water does not have to be stockpiled before the war, but can be stored when war breaks out and it is determined that the environment in which you are living is about to run out of water. At that time, all the large vessels that can store water at home all full of water (black, very strong plastic bags can also store water, pay attention to seal the mouth of the bag, stored away from light), and take rationing, and the opportunity to go out to collect water.
2, water purification equipment
Today's towns and cities near the water is basically contaminated, more so in special times, so the water purification equipment in wartime as a must, the specific supplies are:
Alum, bleach, gauze pockets, sand, charcoal, different sizes of pebbles, filtering buckets (with a red-hot metal bar in the bottom of the plastic buckets can be replaced by drilling holes in the filtering bucket, be careful not to burn your hands). Don't burn your hands).
The water collected outdoors needs to be settled, filtered, sterilized, and boiled before it can be consumed, and the above-listed supplies can satisfy the entire process of water purification, are inexpensive, and can be purchased anywhere.
After the water is taken, alum powder is first put in and stirred (at a ratio of 0.5 grams per liter of water or 500 grams per cubic meter of water), and then left to settle overnight (or visually inspect whether the settling process is complete within two hours if you are waiting for the water to be used).
The second step is filtration. The first sand into a gauze pocket, placed in the bottom of the filter bucket, all covered the outlet, the top of the charcoal particles of different sizes, and then in accordance with the smallest to the largest placement of pebbles, pouring the water precipitation (sand, charcoal, pebbles should be covered by 5-10 centimeters).
In the completed filtration of water in the proportion of 10 grams per cubic meter of water to add bleach disinfection, stirring to dissolve and placed 10 minutes. At this time the water is equivalent to tap water, such as drinking should be boiled. Domestic water can be recycled, do not pour out easily.
3, food
All food should be kept in a cool, dry, ventilated place, labeled, written storage date and shelf life, the first stored first, and the first to use, and the implementation of rationing in wartime, to eat to half-full, whichever (will not starve to death). Since Unrepentant cannot predict how long the war will last, please decide on your own the type and amount to stockpile.
4, salt:
Salt is necessary for the human body, according to age, physical condition, temperature, and labor intensity, a person consumes an average of 10-15 grams of salt per day, the reserve should choose iodized salt. Note that you can't dry swallow salt grains, which can damage the kidneys, and should be dissolved in boiling water and then consumed or made into a dish (if you can still get fresh food at that point).
5, sugar, vinegar, barbecue with a variety of seasoning powder:
Sugar for the body to provide heat, water can be drank, but also a good seasoning; vinegar can be stocked for the dry meat and other food to add flavor (eat a different flavor), but also can be used to disinfect and prevent disease; barbecue seasoning contains salt and a variety of spices, can be sprinkled on the food or make soup, stocking up on it! purpose was also to make wartime meals not seem so bad in flavor.
6, mustard:
Mustard has a very good disinfectant antiseptic antidiarrheal effect, buy toothpaste-like mustard need to be refrigerated, recommended mustard powder.
7, vegetable oil:
Vegetable oil for the body to provide fatty acids and vitamin E and other physical necessities, cooking is also essential. An adult consumes an average of 500 grams of vegetable oil per month, store it in large bottles and keep it away from light.
8, rice, flour:
Rice and flour are staple foods for the north and south, respectively, and their starch content is basically the same, in the absence of other foods, each person needs at least 500 grams per day or so. The general preservation time is two years, and if the package is not airtight at the time of purchase, then it should be put into an airtight package or poured into a container for airtight preservation (covered with a suitable lid, with the edges stuffed with a cloth, and then sealed with adhesive tape paper with a width of 5-10 centimeters).
9, dried sweet potatoes, fried rice flour:
Sweet potatoes when fresh provide about the same amount of starch as rice flour, sun-dried nutrition is more concentrated, can be eaten instead of staple dry chewing, if you have a relative in the countryside, then you can certainly get. The stuff can be stored almost indefinitely, but to be on the safe side, buy some strong, airtight plastic bags to seal it up. Since it's a dried and shrunken food, the daily amount can be reduced appropriately. Fried rice noodles are also instant food, a little less nutritious, and can be eaten dry in emergencies or flushed with water, but they are just more susceptible to moisture, so pay attention to airtight storage.
10, eggs:
Eggs are inexpensive, nutritious, easy to save (smeared with oil, and then placed in a cool, dry place), cooking methods and simple, if necessary, can be eaten raw, should be stocked.
11, raisins, shelled salt peanuts, dried bamboo shoots, dried cabbage, dried seaweed:
These things are generally sold in the city's supermarkets, you should choose to buy a large bag, closed packaging. Among them, raisins and peanuts are rich in nutrients and can be used as vegetables or coaxed to children. Dried bamboo shoots, dried moldy vegetables and dried seaweed are used to make soup, taste good, and cheap, can be stored for a long time.
12, dried meat, dried fish, dried shrimp or shrimp skin:
Dried meat first salted beef and beef jerky, they are rich in nutrients, taste first-class, can be preserved for a long time; dried fish category first sea fish, they are a wide variety of dried fish, inexpensive, easy to save; dried shrimp or shrimp skin is rich in nutrients and minerals, can be added to make soup.
13, canned food:
There are many kinds of canned food, the taste is good, the preservation time is very long, but the price is expensive. If you have extra money, then you can stock up on some.
14, vitamin tablets:
Hesitated for a long time, but still listed vitamin tablets as a food category, because it is difficult to get fresh food in wartime, and the human body in a state of tension vitamin consumption is very fast, so it is necessary to store it as food. Unrepentant recommendation is 21 gold vitamins (Amway's are too expensive), more than $80 for 6 bottles, each bottle can provide an adult's consumption in January, the breakdown is still cheaper
