The following are recommended basics for each family. These and more are included
in units as illustrated within the Preparedness and Survival Section in Karinya. We strongly
advise the use of homeopathic and herbal products instead of the "usual standard medical" products recommended. These
keep well, and are complimentary to the bodily systems.
