Lets just say out of ten items, numbers 1, 2 & 3 is a good water filter. You cannot store enough & surely cannot carry enough water. Many emergencies leave you surrounded with water but cannot drink any of it because of contamination. You will die from lack of water long before lack of food. Put your money into a good filter. There are a few good brands out there, just do your homework. I like the filter straws that filter as you suck. Do not use them for your main filter ut they are a great back-up filter & weigh nearly nothing & take up no space. They are made by Aquamira, I would not buy them off the Aquamira site however, I found them cheaper just by googling, Aquamira straw filter. Ipecac is a great idea to have around. What would you do if you or someone you know eats or drinks something potentially poisoness? It is just a good idea. Hydrogen pyroxide cleans wounds really well. Infected wounds can lead to illness, loss of limbs or loss of life. You will not always be where medical attention is available or where the environment is even clean. Simple cuts can turn into major life threatening events if not taken care of. It can also kill some bugs as a last resort in water. The main reason to store food or have food in a 72 hour kit or bug out bag is for nutrients & sustain life. When emergency strikes you need to drink water & have nutrients. Your body uses 4-10 times the water, vitamins & minerals under stress. Your immune system drops when you do not have the nutrients. Fatigue will also come quicker. A great product I stumbled upon is called Life caps. They have all the vitamins & minerals, iodine & even a touch of natural sugar to keep your blood sugar normal to keep you healthy. They are assimulated in your body within 20-25 minutes. I have used these capsules on a 21 day desert survival in Northern Utah. I would open the capsule & dump it in my mouth. They taste good. They are of the highest quality all natural vitamins & minerals. They are light & you can carry 4 months worth in a relatively small space. I purchased 25 bottles & then found a coupon code to save 33%. You can find out more at lifecaps.net. The coupon code is "healthcap". Anti-diarrheal pills are important just in case. If you are unlucky enough to get diarrhea, you need to stop it ASAP, because it can dehydrate you in a hurry along with wasting nutrition. I go on one or two survival trips a year. I hope these items help you complete your 72 hour kit or bug out bag. Any one of these items are potentially life saving. Whether it is a 72 hour kit, a Bug out Bag or in food storage, these items are a necessity.
