Survival of the fittest. There was an old barn at Tower Hill Farm. Inside my father kept hundreds of pounds of navy beans. We had a backup hand pump well with plenty of fresh water. His survival plan if the grid went down was for us to crush the beans with a hammer and mix the powder with water to sustain life. He said, “Doctor when the sh*t goes down, you better not be cooking. Onions on your breath will become a status symbol.” DG
My current urban reality doesn’t afford me such conveniences. I’m constantly in motion, bi-coastal most of the time. My urban bugout strategy is streamlined and convenient.
We are not only what we eat, we are what we assimilate. We are everything we consume, what we read, what we watch, what we listen to, what we brush our teeth with, clean our homes with, and clean our bodies with. Toxins lurk everywhere. Don’t let your “cure” be worse than the disease.
Here’s my list. In full transparency, many of these products I have a professional relationship with. When I find something exceptional I reach out to a company and discuss creative ways for attachments. I like to be vested in products I believe in and utilize daily. Information is power!

CBD Tinctures (sublingual) and Topicals
CBD has great anti-inflammatory properties. Virtually all sickness and disease begins as some form of inflammatory process, including COVID-19. Any disease with “itis” on its end is inflammatory Bronchitis, rhinitis (common cold), gastritis, dermatitis, etc… I use the Alive in the AM & the Ease in the PM.

High-quality Cool Mist humidifier for cold weather.
Consistent use of humidifiers in cold dry weather helps to prevent upper respiratory infections. Our skin and the body’s mucosal membranes are the first line of defense against microbes. Dry air cracks and weakens membranes and provides an opportunity for microbes to bypass our defenses.
