At my church they teach us these same things. We also have stored food. Food is all dry food, and we have a can sealer. They say it will stay good for 10 years or more the way it's sealed in the 1lb tin cans. My storage build. is full Also I have water. To save it and make sure it's safe is to use empty clorox jugs Just when jugs get empty, shake out..NEVER wash them, and put the water in them. The drops in the jugs keeps the water drinkable. I have dry beans, sugar, noodles and lots of other dry foods. Dry milk...too. I have a box of things in my car for cuts, burns...etc. I keep blankets there too, *** THANKS MARY! aka PEACH_GA60@webtv.net |

----- HEART ATTACKS AND HOT WATER This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about heart attacks. This makes sense. The ancient Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals...not cold water...maybe it is time that we all adopt this drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain... For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. A serious note about heart attacks: You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive... A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this...It could save your life!! **Please be a true friend and send this article to all Your friends you care about** |
NEVER SURRENDER!
