Russians are advised to make a supply of water, food and medicine: what is the reason

Immediately discard Hollywood scenarios about survival in the post-apocalypse. Forming a modest home stock is not paranoia, but reasonable home insurance. According to the expert on civil defense Viktor Lebedev, such a buffer will save you from stress and shop panic, if the house suddenly cut off electricity, water or heating.

First-aid kit: watch the timing

Therapist Elena Gromova insists that people with chronic diseases must have at least a two-week supply of vital drugs at home. The rest of the citizens will have enough basic set: remedies for heat and pain, sorbents, bandages and patches. Useful life hack from doctors: conduct an audit of the home first aid kit every six months, timely replacing medicines with an expiration date approaching the end.

Food and Water: The Principle of Smart Rotation

Do not turn a balcony or pantry into a canned warehouse. The secret of peace of mind is simple: on each weekly purchase, take one or two packs of cereals, pasta or bottles of water more than usual. The replacement mechanism works smoothly: used the bank from the reserve? Next week, just buy a replacement. Food is always fresh, and the family budget does not suffer from sudden and large expenses.

In fact, this is a penny protection from communal accidents, which, alas, periodically occur in any village. To spend an extra 15 minutes in the supermarket today is to guarantee your autonomy and comfort tomorrow.
