Eating HEALTHY after TSHTF

[Mortblanc]

I can assure you that tinned and dried foods in and of themselves were not the culprit, it was this person's choice of foods that did him in.

I have friends that were part of submarine crews and lived on tinned and dried foods for months and were just as healthy when they came out of the sub as they were when they went into it 6-10 months earlier.

I also have friends and relatives that have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan and lived on MRE meals, with only one or two hot meals in a year, and they came back healthy.

I also have friends that live in remote regions of Alaska, where fresh foods, except for wild meat, are only a dream, and they remain healthy.

If you live on bottled jam, peanut butter, bread and baked beans you are going to get diabetes. If your tins include an assortment of vegetables and balanced nutrition you will suffer no ill effects.
