Natural disasters such as floods and major storms (tropical storms/typhoons) can occur with warnings, potentially leading to power outages, traffic jams and limited access to fresh food and clean water.
Preparing an emergency food supply in advance is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure the safety and health of your family.
Experts recommend that people prepare food and drinking water to maintain their lives during floods for at least 72 hours (3 days). Local services may be overloaded, and this supply will help you hold on until aid or normal services can be restored.
Because the possibility of power outages is very high, you should prioritize foods that do not need to be refrigerated, heated and do not need to be cooked.
Cancended food is the best choice that everyone can stock up on before natural disasters. convenient dishes you should prepare such as canned meat (ton, chicken, salmon), canned vegetables (beans, corn), rice or homemade bread, canned fruit juice...
Dried foods you can prepare are: cookies, whole grain and rice cakes, energy bars, protein bars...
Nutritious snacks you should prepare include: Nuts, dried seed mixes, dried fruits (dried pork floss, dried apricot), long-lasting milk (pasteur or canned milk).
One of the important necessities is clean water. Experts recommend that each person should prepare about 4 liters of water per day. Bottled water or pumping clean water into large cans is a choice that many people can apply.
In addition, some essential items that people should prepare to deal with floods are flashlights, medicine, life buoys, etc.
