Alreet YouTube, this is Geordie Prepper
so like the video title says I just thought I'd
go through some things which I bought in October
this is really as a consequence of the
#CheckYourPreps campaign in which i'll leave a
link to up there, it was really just stuff I
was low on, these are items
which I use all the time
basically everything I use is my
prepping items so stuff I use on a daily
weekly, monthly, yearly basis so I'm
constantly using my preps, so starting
with personal hygiene
I got some PitRok and I got some
Bergamot essential oil basically I
was just looking up essential oils you
know essentials oils that are basically you
know associated with with men you know I
don't this smell like Nancy in a Bordello
PitRok is a really good brand of I've
used it for at least a couple years
now and basically this is just the this
is just a pit spray, but you only need
two pumps and it's a substitute for
deodorant because a lot of deodorants
have like aluminium in them really
harmful chemicals in them
this is free of all that rubbish and
with only two pumps this basically
lasts for months so for about five to
six pound for this you can get something
which lasts for months and you know
normal deodorant will basically only
last you maybes two or three weeks if
that depending on how much you use you know
how much toxins you gonna spray on your
skin
Bergamot essential oil, I just use a
little bit of this in the laundry
soap that I make, so speaking of laundry
soap I also got some baking soda
this is just for making my own laundry
powder laundry soap whatever you want to
call it, I actually made some I was going
to make some
and I'd forgotten about this but it
actually turned out ok without the Baking
Soda but I got some Baking Soda
because that is just one of the
ingredients for what I use, I'll leave a
link to the video up there I just use
the recipe that Prepper Princess posted
on her video so it's nice and basic and
simple but it makes some really nice
laundry soap you know I've said
in the past that prepping the body is the most
important prep you can do you know
the the body that you are occupying is
what gets you about it has to be your
number-one prep so something which can
help your body is just diatomaceous
Earth, it's basically something that is
really good detoxing your body pulling
out all the contaminants out there and I
use this in conjunction with distilled
water
I don't drink distilled water that often
now I'm I spent about two years detoxing
my body I just make it on friday so once
a week I just do some distilled water
and for one day out of the week I'll just
that's my detox day so I just pull
contaminants out with the distilled war
and I put this in the water along with a
couple of things such as apple cider
vinegar. Another thing which keeps
the body
well and in check is Colloidal silver
and this is just from a brand I've been getting
for a long time now Pro Colloidal Silver
I've been a little bit unwell at the
minute and you know the past few days
and that's really unusual because I've
been taking Colloidal Silver for about
three years now and I haven't even had
so much as a cold. Something new though
with this brand is that came in these
bags which they never used to and they
also say that the product is best when
used within 12 months of opening and I
was always wondering you know
just how long it lasts, I mean it's
basically just distilled water with
nanoparticles of silver in it, in a
colloid so good to know that it lasts
for a year. So other things that I got I was
running low on because I make my own
cleaning products so I need stuff for
making cleaning products and also at
least once a week i'll just take a bath
so I like to relax and make my own bath
bombs etcetera so sodium bicarb really
good cleaning product and you know you
can use it for toothpaste substitute as well so
you're not getting the poison Sodium Fluoride
in your body
epsom salts that's purely for the bath
and citric acid which I use for cleaning
my water distiller if you didn't see
that I'll put a link to it up there, so citric acid
is really important for that
epsom salts like I said just for a bath
sodium bicarb I use as well in the bath
bomb, epsom bath salts i also use some
dead sea salts also i'll put in some
Fuller's earth. So if you're Bugging In
or you've got people sheltering in place
with you then obviously like I said in
the past you know it can get a bit smelly
pretty stinky very quickly so just to
counter that I just got some incense
sticks
this is just a brand I quite like and
use, this pack here will last for months
and months and months so i just got a
top up. So the final item that I bought was
the Sawyer mini water filtration system and
I was looking at my preps in october
and i was looking at my water filtration
and purification system and i realized i
needed something more compact and which
had a much higher volume of water that
could filter than the lifesaver straw
which i've been using and I've used that
in walks in the Lake District etc and the
LifeStraw is is good and it's just
rather limited with the volume of water
that it can go through it's something
that would recommend that everybody in
your group have,
it can filter 600 liters of water but I
need something which had a much higher
volume so there's so the Sawyer Mini can filter upto
100,000 gallons from freshwater sources
so that means that it needs to be as
filtered as what it can be, you need to
pre filter the water before you put into
the Sawyer Mini as best as you can just to
get the maximum life life span out of
the filler so I needed something which
are much higher volume and the Sawyer Mini
has got some really really good
reviews i'll be doing a review of the
product and doing a full breakdown of it
and using it and testing it but I just
wanted to say that you know any
equipment that you get make sure that
you find a place for the fit into your
preps which complements what you've
already got and also know what your
equipment does because the Sawyer Mini is a
water filter it doesn't purify the water
and you need to know the difference
between filtration and purification and
therefore you need things that
complement the system so this will
filter the water and then obviously you
can use a water purification tablet or
you can boil the water once you filtered
it through the Sawyer, so any equipment
that you do get you know to be make sure
that you know the equipment you've used
in tested it beforehand you know how to
maintain the equipment, it does come with
a back flush syringe in it so you
know just make sure that you not only
have a place for the Mini in your
preps be also make sure that any
maintenance equipment used to maintain
your equipment is also with you when you
need to Bug Out or whether you indeed
just Bugging In
so you know obviously within my Bug In
location i have much higher volume
systems than this but you know they're
not mobile, I can't take them with me
or if it was to take them with me i need
like a vehicle to put them in
where as this is very portable and it's
something that I needed, I needed a much
higher volume system and it needed to be
small and portable and so I got the Sawyer Mini.
Basically that's the last item, so
thanks for watching guys and you know
just go through your preps and make sure
that you've got everything that you need
because you might as well get it now
whilst you're able to because supply lines
just easily get disrupted and you know
things like this will be next to
impossible to get in a grid down.
Be safe, be prepared and i'll see you
next time
