      Research suggests everyone can use extra D3, even up to 50 times the daily amount. And it has a slew of potential health benefits. Makes sense because our bodies were evolved in sunny climates, we spent all day outside with few if any clothing.

    • @snowflakehunter
      @snowflakehunter Рік тому +5

      This is not vitamin D. It is D3, totally different. Vitamin D helps with calcium and phosphorus retention whereas vitamin D3 helps your body absorb the energy from the food being digested. Makes perfect sense in this case as long as you do not take too much.

    The Dutch army uses two types of rations - a regular ration and an arctic ration for cold-weather operations. The packaging for the regular ration is made out of cardboard while the arctic ration is packaged in a plastic pouch. The arctic ration contains freeze dried meals and porridge for breakfast and has a higher level of calories. The Dutch Army also has an emergency ration but these are only supplied in time of war. They contain dry blocks similar to the Datrex or Mainstay survival bars.

    I always love seeing international MREs. My dad was in the army for 20 years and one of the first things he did when going to a new country was trade MREs with the local soldiers.

    Survival ( a.k.a. S.E.R.E.= Survival , Escape , Resistance and Evasion ) training
    and one of my memories was always being hungry and cold .We would easily consume 5000 calories a day of C rations and a locally manufactured Pemmican

    could never eat enough to keep warm due to your metabolism running so high.

As if the fact that various disabilities can make veganism impossible for some folks wasn't reason enough (and sometimes it's down to the way a specific person's disability manifests and not a universal trait). Because if you have to kill animals for a good reason, universal veganism would just mean all of those animals end up in the trash and contribute to the landfills, when some could have otherwise been eaten and provided food.

    "it's not spicy, kind of like a curry..". As a born and raised (smalltown) Dutchie, I can tell you most of us are not at all accustomed to spicy food. We mostly(/originally) grew up with boiled and/or steamed potatoes, veggies, some meat and a light gravy as a weekday meal. I never had anything spicy growing up. The first time I used a seasoning like chilli flakes was when I was already in my 20s 🙈

      Between the generally high caloric count of 24 hr military ration packs (since they pack enough for someone who is being extremely active while potentially carrying lots of heavy stuff) and the fact that when it's cold you need way more calories to do the same level of activity, you are definitely set up for an absolute feast for the average person

    May I recommend: if you ever travel in the South of France (not necessarily Provence) look for apricots. I ate an apricot purchased from a stand near Le Gouffre. It was as big as my fist. When I bit into it, the juices ran down my arm. Apricots are next level peaches, if you can find good ones.👍🏻💯🤗💋I have never found a decent apricot stateside…I believe they exist-most likely in your region. Please, do some research. A good fresh apricot is like nothing else. I learned that as a true surprise.
