Depending on where you live your BoB needs to be changed out seasonaly. My preence is Winter and Summer. You can coast through spring and fall.

Harlan Meeks On Low Watt Living And Backup Power |episode 129

This week I welcome on Harlan Meeks to the podcast. He is the host of the Low Watt Living Podcast.

On his podcast, Harlan Meeks covers a wide variety of topics on backup power, alternative energies, and survival.

We talk about keeping your lights on during a power outage. From using rechargeable batteries in your headlamp to generators.

I ask Harlan Meeks about how he keeps his cell phone powered on at all times. He says his phone never dies. This is done with a battery case and USB battery packs.

We talk about all that and more today.

Best Natural Home Remedies For Colds | Episode 128

This week the main topic of the show is Best Natural Home Remedies For Colds. For me, this is a very timely episode. Since I have been fighting the crud.

The odd thing Is I never get sick. Maybe every few years I will get a super bug and have it take me out. This is one of those times.

First up we talk about the hot toddy. My recommendation has always been to use Moonshine to cure coughs. In the podcast, I say 2tbsps of Honey. That’s wrong it is 1 tbsp of honey.

1 Shot of Moonshine
1 TBSP Honey
A squeeze of lemon juice.

The next item on my list of Natural Home Remedies For Colds is pine needle tea. If you are cheap and want a free source of vitamin c pine needles are amazing.

I have used steaming cups of pine needle tea to get through many a rough cold. I like it best to start drinking it at the very onset of a cold. To stop it right in its tracks.

I will also supplement with vitamin c. And in very high doses. Somewhere in the 16~20 grams per day range. For me above the 20 grams per day will cause many bathroom visits.

The winter is the time to make sure you are taking vitamin D. Chances are you like most Americans are deficient in vitamin D.

In the winter with even less sunlight, this problem is exasperated. So get some good quality vitamin D supplements and start taking them daily.
