The theme for the August 2012 issue of PREPARE Magazine is centered around health, and using natural home health remedies. There is a growing concern for how health care and prescription medications will be administered in a disaster situation – especially in a situation where the health agencies are inundated. Many people are turning to alternative health and natural remedies as part of their preparedness planning.

Summer is almost over. With the fast approaching changes in weather and with many students heading back to school, most of us worry about the health issues our families may face during these changes since we may not have ample funds or insurance. In this August issue of PREPARE Magazine we focus on Alternative Health & Medical Care. We wanted to share just a few ideas to help broaden the options when faced with health and medical issues.
It is always amazing to read what this great group of contributors is able to share in such wide variety on a seemingly singular topic. We are truly blessed to work with a gifted group of dedicated writers. As an example, herbs and natural options are the theme in the article: Rethinking Your Medical Preps. Whereas the practical subject matter (and delicately discussed natural bodily functions) of the article: Sanitation in a Grid-Down Situation prove to be a much needed health focus of dealing with waste. From budget ideas to tea-tree oil, bentonite clay and lavender- this issue begins to shed some light on how wide our options are for Alternative Health & Medical Care. Sound advice from a Board Certified Physician can be found in the article: Asthma Solutions. Explore the differing approaches between the Traditional Medical Approach vs. Natural Remedies in the article: The Band-Aid Approach.
Even though not all inclusive of every Alternative Health & Medical option out there, we hope this issue begins to bring you hope and ideas for alternatives. But much like the disclaimer on the vanilla sugar-cookie scented candle that says “Do Not Eat”, we would be remiss to not remind you that these are merely suggestions and not intended to diagnose or treat anyone. Please do your due diligence to find what works best for your family’s needs.
As summer draws to a close and the fall season is coming upon us, we are thrilled by all of the support and encouragements that we have received from those of you who have read and shared PREPARE Magazine. You are invited to be actively involved by submitting Community Events in your area and taking the polls found on our website. Perhaps you have something to share?
