When i was a child and we ran out of toothpaste we used salt to clean our teeth. I’m 87 years old and still have my own teeth. Lol
That’s awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you....
We used baking soda. Doesn't taste very good, but it works.
@@sharonoconnell7914 Same for me.
@@sharonoconnell7914 I've found that adding a drop or two of essential oil makes it taste better.
Stock up on whiskey. It never goes bad if unopened, it can be used as a bargaining chip, it can disinfect wounds, it can be a temporary anesthetic. Many uses.
I'm stocking vodka. I've never drank in my whole life, but it is important to have to make tinctures....and can also be used for the same as you listed
@@sarahmiranda7130 I also stock up on cigarettes when I can. I don't smoke, but cigarettes could be quite valuable in trading and bartering.
Pain-Killer My mother smoked so I know how she stored any extras. Be sure to keep them in the freezer, use Mylar or vacuum seal with an oxygen absorber. Otherwise these will get stale within a few month or so & taste nasty to a smoker. I've seen her throw old ones away.
I don't drink at all so I have no idea which brands to buy. I would be confused the moment I walk in a liquor store. I don't want top of the line but not cheap either. Any suggestions on whiskey, vodka or recommendations on which other types I should get for bartering & medicinal purposes? Thank you.
@@wifigrannyl.1354 For whiskey, I'd say Johnnie Walker and Jack Daniels. They are not too expensive, but not cheap either. They are also a brand that lot of people will recognize. I'd also say Jim Beam if you want to go a bit cheaper. For Vodka, get Smirnoff. It's a name most people recognize, is effective enough to disinfect wounds, and is affordable to stock up on.
I live a little north of Houston. I started my preppers pantry because I got tired of hurricane shopping.
add pure coco powder, superb antioxidant, magnesium source, comfort food.
You can also add that to homemade toothpaste. It works better than fluoride!!!
Olives biggest property is they are one of the most important fats….
I’ve watched hundreds of prepper videos with lists of “must-haves” and I’ve never seen anyone else include pineapple juice. That is genius, and I’m going to include it on my list now. We frequently have coughs and respiratory issues, so I really appreciate this information. Thank you!!
You’re welcome. Glad it was helpful
get a large jar of minced ginger. bottles of lemon juice, plenty of jars of honey. If you feel a cold/sore throat coming on. mix slightly cooled boiled watet add a spoon full of ginger,honey,lemon juice. Works for me every time. Keep healthy, and wise and prepared ♥️
You can dehydrate chopped garlic and it will keep for years. Just rehydrate with a little hot water.
Good point. We will probably add that to an upcoming video re additional preservation methods. Thanks.
Or just blend it in a food processor to make garlic powder.
Blend something that uses a lot of garlic right afterwards to get the smell of the blender, like hummus for example.
You can also ferment peeled garlic in raw honey. That will only get better in years (from 3 years old it will be the most delicious). Just make sure to stir it the first few days/weeks to keep garlic below the honey. It will sink and shelf life is really long. Also great as natural medicine.❤
Dried, ground cayenne pepper also stops bleeding. I sliced my hand on a mandolin and the bleeding just would not stop. Cayenne saved me.
I do have some. Picked from our garden and dried.
ouch. cayenne on a cut? wow. great tip but dang that musta hurt, too.
@@freethinker2976 nope you don't feel a thing...and it will clot. until you can take care of it.
Fine coffee grounds will stop bleeding as well. I grind my own beans. I pull the fine powder on the edges of the grinder and store in a glass jar. Have put the powder in cleaned glass spice shaker jars. Great for emergency.
Yarrow will stop bleeding too
I’m inclined to believe that too many preppers don’t have enough salt stocked up. It’s dirt cheap now but if shtf it would sky rocket again like in times past. Very valuable prep to have lots of; I usually put 50 pounds worth in five gallon buckets.
I agree 100%.
To season and keep the food from expiring?
@@meganslonesings that and also because the human body requires sodium. I believe it was either 5 pounds or 10 pounds per year that we need on average. Salt will be extremely hard to source if shtf and there were no more grocery stores.
I buy 50 pound bags of livestock "mixing salt" at the feed store for $5-$7 (depending on which store) Just fyi
@@tamrajohnson5174 yes I knew about salt from the feed stores. They usually even have trace minerals in it so it’s more nutritional. Only reason I don’t stock that type is because they don’t filter it as much as they do the regular table, canning, kosher, and other salts for human consumption. So often you will have dirt, dust and other debris in the feed store animal salts. Still worth it though I’ll agree with you, because when shtf you’re not going to care about that; just my preference.
6:30 salt water (saline) is still used to clean wounds. It remains the best method superior to betadine (harsh) or peroxide (also harsh).
Awesome. Great point.
Now this is a man! A protector and provider
Thank you
bunie cords or protective slats to keep your shelves securedwill come in very handy to secure shelves,secure shelves to walls in case of earth quakes etc.
If I lived in an earthquake prone area, I would secure them with bungee cords and other methods.
Awesome content! The capsaicin in chillis also depletes substance P, a neurotransmitters responsible for transmitting pain messages to the brain.
Love your shelf set up btw, looks amazing!! 👌
Thank you, I appreciate it.
Thanks 😀👍
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for the information.
You’re welcome
Well thought out video. Thank you Sir.
You’re welcome. Glad it was helpful
Thank you! Great video!
You’re welcome
Great info!!! I now need to add some items to my grocery list.
Glad it was helpful
Thank you for spending your time to educate us 😊
My pleasure!
Excellent ! Thank you. Judi
You're welcome
Thank you for the great prepper tips!
Our pleasure!
Thank you for these helpful tips! Also add baking soda as a must have on the list. Not only for soaking your beans and chickpeas in overnight to make sure they cook faster and to make them softer but it is great for cleaning your teeth and general cleaning around the house including your greasy stove if mixed with dish soap 🧼 and leaving it on for a while.
You’re welcome. We have a ton of baking soda. I totally forgot to add it to the video.
I love your these golden nuggets!!!! Thanks a million.
You're welcome
Thank you so much
You're welcome
I do canning but I find that, unless you grow it yourself, it is not the lowest-priced way to go; canning equipment, energy, produce, extra additives, and TIME! If you have to buy the produce, and especially, if you have to buy canning equipment, lowest cost would be simply shopping the sales for pantry items at grocery store.
Plus I find pressure canned veggies too mushy.
Really nice shelf design. Nice and orderly storage pantry.
Thank you. We did a video on it here: ua-cam.com/video/dZv7NEnKQoc/v-deo.html
Wow great informative video, you really know your food and herbs!
Thank you.
What an amazing video ❤️😊
Thank you!!
I have started mine And I'm so excited!

Thanks for the info, looking forward to campfire bread.
You’re welcome
I'm a new subscriber and a new preppier...love your videos! Thanks for helping us all out...
Awesome Amy! Glad to have you here and thank you.
I am so glad to see new preppers. I think the craziness has made preppers out of lots of people. Every little bit helps.
Glad to see your Berkey! Yes, water 💧 is our #1 prep need!!
Absolutely!
Thanks from Alabama 😁♥️🙏
You’re welcome
Sincerely appreciate y’all!!
Thank you so much. We appreciate it.
@@CountryLivingExperience most definitely! As a New homesteader myself, any new tricks or information is always helpful! Thank ya
You're welcome.
This is a great video and great suggestions. My only thing is, you've got canned pineapple juice in there. The canning process destroys the bromelain. I learned this the hard way when I tried to make jello with fresh pineapple. It wouldn't gel! That's because bromelain inhibits gelatin from forming. Thus, they say you MUST use canned pineapple if you want to make pineapple jello. So canned pineapple juice actually has no bromelain because it's been killed off in the heat process. It's still pretty high in vitamin C and tastes great though. I certainly wouldn't turn it away in a boogaloo situation like we're talking about but maybe best to get a freezer and freeze some fresh pineapple juice.
Thank you. That is disappointing to hear. I guess I will have to grow some fresh in a greenhouse.
@Marie Doty great info!
@@CountryLivingExperience you can freeze dry pineapple and then vacuum seal it. Keeps the medicinal and digestive benefits for years that way.
If you decide you want canned pineapple or the juice, keep in mind the acid foods like pineapple and tomato products will eat through the cans in a few short years. Mine did. Now I can my own in glass jars.
@@melissaskaggs7229 we are looking into buying one of these
Your videos are always amazing, thought-provoking and fact-based. Thank you!
I appreciate that! Thank you!
Yes, thought-provoking is a good term. I agree.
I'm a new subscriber. I appreciate how you explain the medicinal properties of certain items. In these times now, and worse coming, we need this. Thank you!🌹
You’re welcome. Glad to have you here.
@@CountryLivingExperience AMEN, glad to be here. 🌹✝️
Anti inflammatory and some pain relieving as well
For sure
I learned alot watching this video. I recommend anyone to watch it.Very interesting.
Thank you
I had rice for supper tonight and to jazz it up, I took a can of soup and added to it with the cooking liquid to give it more flavor
This is my first time watching you & have subscribed ! I really enjoyed your video & was tickled to hear you are a vegetarian farm family like ourselves - I have to tell you , you are the 1st I’ve found on YT . Being on the farm & raising animals for food seem to go hand & hand . It’s how both my Husband & I were raised but we have chosen a different path . 😊❤️😊
Very cool! Welcome to our channel. Glad to have you here.
Same here 😉
Thank you so so much!! New subscriber here! Great and informative video
Welcome to the channel
Thank you. I just found your channel. Just subscribed 💥
You're welcome and welcome to the channel.
Congrats on your 100k subscribers!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it.
Beans also have a good amount of carbs with a great amount of fiber. Keeps the gut healthy and flowing! Salt is also an important mineral we need to survive. (Mixing a tiny amount in water is like taking electrolytes) good for when you've exerted yourself. A good idea too maybe having a local foraging/edible/medicinal book, to help identify plants in ur area.
Absolutely
I recently did a emergency preparedness kit. Ready to start a small preppers pantry, as don't have too much space, but I think its a great idea. This list is going to be my starting list... love that you focus on the health benefits and share that aspect.
I never buy canned goods apart from some soups & canned tomatoes as i like to cook from scratch and know what's in our food.. so a lot of canned goods sold in stores don't work for me. But you are definitely inspiring & looking forward to watching your other videos🙏
Awesome! Glad we could be inspiring and helpful. Good luck with building your preps and getting ready.
Please share your list. I need to start prepping.
Love this video!! Thanks so much! I am loving learning how to prep but unfortunately we live in a very tiny house. Would you mind sharing if possible where you got this shelf unit? I like this and think this might work. Thanks again!
Thank you. These are the shelves I used: amzn.to/3kAhAM5. We did a video on how to build them and the other materials here: ua-cam.com/video/dZv7NEnKQoc/v-deo.html Hope it works out for you.
Garlic is a must have for my pantry.
Absolutely
I like keeping cornmeal and grits also.
Cool
I store popcorn it lasts for 30 years and have a hand grinder to make corn meal. The more processed a grain is the less it can be stored.
We do a ton of canning every year. So far this year 523 quarts and 175 pints. One of our families favorite is banana peppers stuffed with sauerkraut. Love them during the winter.
Awesome
Thank you for the great video! Do you happen to have a link to the shelving we see behind you that looks perfect for mason jars? I love it!
You’re welcome. We did a video on the shelves here: ua-cam.com/video/dZv7NEnKQoc/v-deo.html
I hope I never have to clean out a wound with salt 😩. But I wound be glad to have it if I needed it! I dont cook or bake with oils, so keeping olives and a limited amount of nuts and seeds is important. Thanks for the suggestions! I look forward to watching more of your videos.
You're welcome and welcome to the channel.
Great information. I recommend using mineral salt instead of white table salt.
Thanks. I am in the process of adding Celtic sea salt
I have herbs in bulk! especially nettle it’s loaded with minerals. We also have super bulk of certain spices!!we have 5 gallon buckets of beans and grains and pasta sugar and stocking up on jam for sure for flavor for things! We do canning of cherries pears peaches chicken beef chili bacon apple sauce we’re doing tomatoes this year and probably salsa. I’m going to stock up on more honey and coconut oil soon too
Awesome!
I hope those that have freezers have solar powered generators. Also, fill that freezer up! If the power goes out it is a good thing to have cooked food in the freezer that all you have to do is reach in the freezer and heat it up outside or in the grill or whatever else you may have. But it's super hard to cook when you are under stress.
Excellent comment! Great point.
You are right i use beans quite often im not a prepper but beans have alot of protein and i make rice and beans for dinner once a weel meat has gone up so much chick peas i use as a protein for salad
Awesome
This is a great list, but I would also add several spices to it. Cumin is a flavor enhancer, even better than and obviously healthier than, MSG. Turmeric is loaded with micro nutrients and has even been known to aid in weight management. Dried minced onion, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder are all great for flavoring food and can reduce the need to add a lot of salt to meals. These food stuffs will keep for a number of years, if stored properly. Dried herbs may also be stored, but their shelf life is limited to a couple of years. Still, they can be useful while they ARE good.
Bromelian is found in the core of the pineapple.
Great list! I always think of what was used as currency in historical times, tobacco, salt, sugar, coffee, chocolate, alcohol. Also for trade people will need spices to season all the rice and beans they have, so bulk variety of spices is gold. things to make desert will be valuable for morale, cans of peaches, cocoa and condensed milk for hot chocolate, dried candied fruit.
What about when the electricity goes out during a storm?
Batteries, flash light's and candles are great if you don't have a backup generator .
Also, stock pile on hygiene it'll go hand in hand, put away about 5 months worth just incase.
If you are single and on the verge of being completely financially wiped out, investing in a hammock or tent is a must, for temporary emergency purposes.
All those things are good but that is a completely different video.
You can also use Cayenne Pepper stems (or any hot pepper stem) to start yogurt if you don't have an active culture!
Very interesting. Thanks for the tip.
I did not know that about pineapple juice! I have anple supply of everything else as well as other items, but will add pineapple juice even though I am not a fan. For emergency situations, I will adapt and learn to love it.
Cool
U want or need bromelain purchase it in gel tabs the pineapple juice does not have any in it the cooking process kills it. Bromelain is what is used for breast cancer.
Honey, molasses, agave & maple syrup. I buy them by the gallon. I also can butter, shelf stable up to 5 years!
Very cool
Very similar to my preps (vegan/vegetarian prepper here). I also have a 5 gallon bucket of molasses. No flour.
Awesome! Glad to meet someone similar.
5:29 Homemade bread and butter pickles are also a great sweet treat that compliment beans. You can make tons of them and they store for a long time.
6:46 Ghee (which you can easily make) is also a great fat which if sealed in canning jars, will store almost indefinitely.
Good add on's
I grow my own dandelions..I make fresh tea every day with the leaves and yellow petals ... steep for 10 minutes, add honey if desired. Can also make dandelion salads , soups, dishes, cordials and wine.
That's awesome.
This was a fabulously interesting video...not horribly long...hate long videos. Tremendous comments. Liked and subscribed. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Jesus bless.
Bless you too. Welcome to the channel. I am curious (so I can make better videos) why are longer videos bad? People watch TV shows that are a minimum 30 minutes or 1 hour.
@@CountryLivingExperience Sorry about that...I guess 'hate' is a pretty strong word. Let's say 'definitely dislike.' I am single. I do everything the husband AND wife do on a homestead. I watch youtube for learning purposes. Usually people watch TV for entertainment or relaxation. I have learned it is paramount to watch MANY videos when trying to acquire new knowledge so that the knowledge I embrace and utilize is correct. I look for short videos so I can compare information. I might want to see what I need in my pantry, learn how to change the carburetor on the tiller and research how to repair a culvert that is washing out. All on a limited income. I want to learn what to do, do it and get it marked off the list. I have noticed some presenters get confused in either making a video that will transfer a block of information and a video that is almost a mini movie. I hope this is not a grouchy, cranky reply. I believe you wanted some honest input. There is a population of people out there in my same shoes who wake up everyday with an unbelievable 'to-do' list. Forgive me if this is not the answer you expected...feel free to delete it if necessary. Jesus bless.
@@sandrarichardson2713 Not grouchy at all. I totally understand.
With storing beans should you freeze it first to get rid of bugs like you do with rice to store in Mylar bags with oxygen absorbers.
That one method. You can also use heat and dry can them. We did a video on that here...ua-cam.com/video/37M76OwXMvI/v-deo.html
HEY all you prepper people beans are not a complete protein. The reason you combine them with rice is because THE TWO TOGETHER MAKE A COMPLETE PROTEIN.
Enjoyed the conciseness of the video with not a lot of bluster. Like Dragnet's Joe Friday said " Just the Facts ".
Cool
exceptional upload Country Living Experience: A Homesteading Journey. I broke the thumbs up on your video. Keep up the very good work.
Thank you so much. I appreciate it.
Cayenne is also good for ulcers!
It is a very powerful healer.
I have been using my dehydrator for onions, peppers, etc. It is so good for long term storage and is a space saver.
Dehydrated items store for a long time but since they still have moisture they can be susceptible to mold unless they are vacuum packed.
Thank you for ur video do u have a video on canning garlic ?
You're welcome. We actually don't can out garlic. We just hang it dry in the house. Maybe we will in the future.
I ferment mine in salt brine. It turns the cloves a gorgeous gold colour and it takes some of the heat without impacting the taste. I did few jars over a year ago and it's still keeping well so will work for long term storage, especially if you grow it yourself.
Look up pepper jam, delicious!
I have had it. Very delicious.
7:40 very interesting
I’m moving into an RV with my pantry so I’m keeping my beans and rice in plastic bags to keep the weight load under my limit. Glass jars May break in transit and they are heavier than plastic storage containers. But they sure look nice on the shelves! Where are the pickles? Thank you for your video!
You're welcome. Good luck on your journey.
I HAVE Had canning jars in my RV for years never broke a jar yet.. but if your unit is weight sensitive there are likly better options.. try lock and lock containers.. my think is RVs tend to be damp.. so you need good dry storage in them for sure Gasketed containers or jars work best..
Rice will most likely go bad in plastic bags and develop bugs
Can buy textured mylar bags on Amazon that works with FoodSaver machine.
First time viewer and now, new subscriber. Better depth level of information than I’ve been seeing. Impressed with your content. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
These bases are well covered in my pantry👍🏻
Exploring your channels offerings. There’s a lot of information I can appreciate
Thank you so much. Welcome to the channel!
Every yr I buy 20 pineapples on sale for .99 cents sometimes more and make juice jelly’s and chunks . We love it I get at the least 32 jars . And they go fast
Nice!
Tomatoes are a fruit? I did not know that. Great vid. Thanks
Yep. You’re welcome
I didn’t realize maple aureus grew a wierd mold that wasn’t harmful but it sure grossed me out. I wish I knew about this before hand and what to do about it maybe do a video?
I enjoyed this. Props to being vegetarian 🌱
Thank you
WOW!! Love the shelves. Did you use steel pipe and
fittings or could you use heavy PVC?
Thank you! Here is the video link for the shelves we built.....ua-cam.com/video/dZv7NEnKQoc/v-deo.html. Here is the kit we used: 3-Bracket 5-Shelf Pipe Shelf Kit: amzn.to/2xGyhiX. I am unsure of how pvc could carry the weight. I would have to experiment on that.
From Lil Giant Great list. I am a prepper and have decided to ad the braided garlic, olives, and pineapple juice. That last was really surprising to me.
You really need home canned tomato juice, sauce, and/or spaghetti sauce. Flavor for casseroles, lycopine, etc. Once your garden harvest comes in not as important. You can can/dry them. You also need applesauce.
You can use applesauce in baking to replace oil in baked goods. Also versatile-on top of pancakes or toast, in cakes, breads, donuts. Has bulk as well as nutrition. Does not need to be cooked. (Blessing sometimes.) Flavors your breakfast oatmeal. (Many 72 hour kits have starches like oatmeal). Provides a sweet as comfort food.
Complement to pork, for those who eat meat. (I NEVER eat pork. More difficult to store well without refrigeration. Takes twice as long to digest as other meats and putrifies in the gut once you have eaten fruit, sugars, etc. This is a danger to your health, particularly in crisis.) Applesauce is terrific. You should store it.
Cabbage products are also fantastic.
Those who prep SHOULD consider storing AND ALSO EATING WHEAT. Stored in a number ten can you can buy already filled, it lasts 25-30 years if kept at cool temps like under 70 degrees. You would need to get a grain mill. Handymen can buy a bike kit and attach ANY bike to the manual mill, to grind more easily. You could also buy parts yourself to connect to a standing exercise bike to assist in grinding. Of course, if not mechanically inclined can just use any manual mill and grind yourself. But hard to do unless high quality.
Online they appear to be $15-55. But I canning recommend any of them. Not familiar. 20 years ago I always used a friend’s old commercial A&P coffee grinder to grind my wheat.
I listened to a video and have ordered a mill that costs $96 with tax and shipping but suspect will be hard to grind. She claimed a Wonder Mill was one that would be better for those with only a manual (not electric.) Cannot recommend either one. Do not know. HOWEVER might be worth your while to research.
When grinding my own wheat a doctor did blood tests on my daughter checking for migraines. Each of the four test results, he said WOW! We ate homemade bread from ground wheat and alfalfa sprouts, cuz very poor. Wheat is fantastic for your health. You can sprout it. You can plant it. I use half and half with flour for bread, pancakes. Vietnamese chewed (slowly) grains like rice, wheat while on the run. You can cook it up whole for a bulgur breakfast with honey. Can replace rice/noodles in casseroles with bulgur. Make potatoless salad with bulgur to replace potatoes. Can dry-store like rice in canning jars. Egyptian tombs had honey and wheat that could still be planted, sprouted, when opened them. CAUTION: If you have not been eating wheat in your diet on regular basis, do not advise eating wheat as your MAIN staple. Such use without other foods can cause dysentery for those not accustomed to eating wheat. That could be dangerous without medical help in a crisis. But if you will start using it now, it can be one of FOUR basic staples to get a minimal storage -1) wheat & flour, 2) powdered milk, 3) salt, 4) sugar &honey. (Honey is better.)
I heartily recommend everything this video host has given you, however. He has good, basic ideas. They are doable-especially for beginners. These things could save your life.
Thank you.
My son has celiac, we never eat wheat or any gluten containing grains. Actually we eat few grains and are very healthy. Were your daughters headaches linked to gluten? Hope she feels better.
@@nancy9478 From Lil Giant No. My daughter’s headaches were from allergy to corn. First thing I fed her ( over 40 years ago, in the summertime) once she had completed simple diet for allergy cleansing prescribed by doctor, first thing I gave her was corn on the cob with margarine-all corn stuff. (Forgive my total ignorance at the time.) Immediate migraine. What a problem. Corn in EVERYTHING, especially candy and canned goods.
We had to change that pretty fast. I look at it as Heavenly Father guiding, teaching, and protecting us. First learned not to eat too much meat, to eat more grains and vegetables in season, not to drink alcoholic beverages unless of my own make-due to conspiracies “that do and will exist in these the latter days,” not to smoke, or drink tea or coffee. Then we started with wheat and alfalfa sprouts, progressed to not eating corn or other products (they soon started adding GMO’s to) and ended up preparing our own food for consumption.
So now, like many others. we gain a desire to progress to homesteading. Step by step. Little by little. Eventful life. God Bless America, and pray that we may be strong in the coming evils.
Every part of a dandelion can be used as food or drink. The pedals are poisonous unless made into wine.
Thanks for the video! Those are beautiful shelves, roots and refuge has very similar ones in their kitchen and dining room. I’m assuming you don’t live in earthquake country with all the glass LOL I wish I could stockpile in glass. Thanks again! I did not know about the healing qualities in Cayenne pepper.
You're welcome. No earthquakes here in East Texas. I have a video on how to make those shelves if you are interested......ua-cam.com/video/dZv7NEnKQoc/v-deo.html
It’s nice that you care and want to help others but not everyone eats the same, so suggestions, although welcome, is not a one-size-fits-all. The #1 rule of being prepared is to store what you use and use what you store (keeping it rotated prevents spoilage). I do not store rice because I do not eat it. There are many options for flours, coconut flour, almond flour, acorn flour, etc. Flour can be made out of anything that can be dried. Honey, YES, it’s a great taste and can be used with many things. It’s one of the rare exceptions to me as a low-carb eater (carbs create hunger so I avoid them like the plague!). Raw salt only, pink salt preferred. Processed salt is unhealthy and causes a lot of medical problems. Coconut oil, YES, along with olive oil, avocado oil, bacon grease, and lard. Garlic & Onions are important to have and easy to grow. I could go on and on since I’ve lived a sustainable lifestyle for close to 70 years, but I’ll shut up now and go enjoy more of your videos.
Seems as if you have an outline for a video. When will it be uploaded?
@@russellvanorder9022 I don't do videos, but maybe I should learn how. I hope you will expand your videos to include many more ideas. So many are limited to the old standbys and we all need new ideas to expand our thinking. Wishing you the best.
Thank you for your input. As a person fighting diabetes, I have to avoid carbs. Most preppers start with high carb items like it is a must. Stay prepped and well.
I would add corn flour on the list, very filling polenta, it can be served instead of steak bread, vegetable stew, also in our country, when your throat hurts very much, it makes a very soft, fluid polenta, in which you add a cube of butter, and drink as hot as you can stand, or a hot, hot polenta, wrap in a towel and then apply on the chest, it helps a lot to detach the mucus, the polenta is made much faster than bread and has a lower caloric content than bread , also, matches and candles should not be missing , lentils are a very good substitute for beans, they cook faster and because there are people who bloat from beans, no matter how much water is washed and boiled, this will not happen with lentils
I like polenta. A good suggestion. I have lentils. Matches and candles would be a different kind of video.
Nutritional values
Buckwheat is a pseudo-cereal that does not contain gluten and is low in fat, having a significant amount of nutrients in relation to the number of calories it contains (155 calories for 1 cup of buckwheat flour). The ratio of fat in buckwheat is about 1 gram per cup of boiled buckwheat seeds, containing 0.2 g of saturated fat. These values represent monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both being considered healthy fats for the body. Buckwheat also does not contain carbohydrates, but is rich in healthy natural fiber.
This food provides a sufficient amount of protein (7-21%, depending on environmental factors) and is rich in lysine, an essential amino acid used for protein biosynthesis. This plant beneficial to health has one of the highest amino acid scores (100) in the plant category and contains 59-70% starch. Buckwheat proteins are composed of several types of amino acids than wheat or other cereals, especially lysine. The human body cannot produce lysine naturally, so it needs to get it from food.
Thiamine is a micronutrient found in buckwheat and has the role of helping carbohydrates to produce energy. It also contains niacin (beneficial for the digestive system, nerves and skin), copper, which helps make collagen and absorb iron, and zinc, which is important for supporting the immune system.
