Natural Disaster Survival Tips - by Doctor Marie J. Miczak

Living in the path of Hurricane Sandy (and last year, Irene), has been a serious wake-up call. While the main foci of my blog is cross training and fitness, this recent natural disaster has given me quite a few relative talking points.

Rely on Your Own Power

Strengthen Your Immune System

Be Prepared: Food, Water & Warm Clothing

You don't need to purchase bottled water. You can fill any bottle with filtered water and it will keep for several weeks. Another option is to invest in a water BOB for your bathtub. You can fill it up and dispense as needed. Just make sure to have 2 gallons per person per day for drinking and washing needs. If you are not sure about your water supply's safety, consider boiling your water for 5 minutes or invest in a PurifiCup Portable Water Filtration System.
If you have to relocate to a shelter or a holding center, you can bring your Purificup with you. Having safe, pure water to drink during an emergency is a very important step towards staying healthy. Likewise hypothermia is more apt to be a problem if you are dehydrated.

Warm Clothing

Right now I'm keeping an eye on the next storm. When the barometer starts falling, that's when you know trouble is brewing in the atmosphere. My prayers and heart go out to all of my NY/NJ neighbors who are still struggling with power outages, fallen debris and all manner of deprivation. Some have lost their homes, over 100 people have lost their lives due to this storm. Be safe all and God bless.

PurifiCup® Now in India

PurifiCup is deeply committed to the idea that everyone should have access to clean drinking water, not only in North America but globally too. Many companies and　organizations do great work to bring clean, reliable water sources to people around the world who do not have access to clean drinking water. PurifiCup applauds these efforts by others. In an effort to do our part globally,
we are excited to announce that our product is being made available to the people of India.

Our partnership with the PRACSOL Health Group is an integral part in making PurifiCup filtration systems available to the people of India. With their help, we are able to offer our state of the art, easy to use, compact and convenient water filtration systems to a large population of people, many of whom may not have the easiest access to clean drinking water.

India's economy is booming but most of its population has little to no access to clean water. Dirt, bacteria and chemicals are just a few of the things that are lurking in India's unclean water. As people continue to drink this unclean water they get sick and pass illness to family members and friends. Imagine how much safer the water would be after it filters through a PurifiCup water filtration system's Exclusive nano-silver Membrane filter! 99.99% of all the bacteria would be gone and that means less people getting sick and passing illness to one another.

We are excited to be able to offer this affordable technology to a whole population of people who are desperately in need of safer and cleaner drinking water. To read more about how PurifiCup filtration systems work, please click HERE.
