7 - Real Talk - Prepping for Health - Ensuring Medication & Supplement Readiness

Most people think of preparedness as stockpiling food, water, and shelter. But what if the greatest risk isn’t what’s in your pantry—but what’s in your medicine cabinet?

Imagine this: A cyberattack shuts down pharmacy networks. Supply chains freeze. You go to refill your prescription, but the system is down. You have only a few pills left. What happens next?

This isn’t a hypothetical—it has already happened. And if you’re not prepared, it could happen to you.

Today on Real Talk, Dr. Daniel Sproul and Gerardo Ortega break down a critical yet ignored part of preparedness: medical and supplement readiness. In a crisis, the last thing you want is to scramble for life-saving medications.

If recent years have shown us anything, it’s that supply chains are fragile. Remember when insulin, antibiotics, and even baby formula vanished overnight? Most pharmacies don’t keep extra stock—if a disruption happens, shelves go empty fast.

💡 Think it won’t happen again? In 2021, a ransomware attack crippled Scripps Health, preventing thousands from refilling prescriptions for days. If that happened nationwide, would you be ready?

The real question isn’t if this will happen—it’s when.

Most people only have a 30-day supply of prescriptions. That isn’t enough if refills stop. In this episode, we cover:

🔹 Which prescriptions you should stockpile—and how to do it.
🔹 The 3 most critical medications you should never run out of.
🔹 One overlooked OTC item that could save your life.
🔹 How to secure a 90-day prescription (even if insurance resists).

While prescriptions are essential, there are natural alternatives that can help in an emergency. But only if you stock up before shortages hit.

✅ Top 5 supplements that support blood pressure, blood sugar, and inflammation.
✅ The one vitamin that disappears from shelves first in a crisis.
✅ A must-have gut health supplement for immune resilience.
✅ How to store supplements properly so they last longer.

Being fully prepared means thinking beyond food and water. In this episode, we cover:

✔️ The #1 mistake people make when stockpiling prescriptions.
✔️ How much water you actually need for medication effectiveness.
✔️ Why most first aid kits are dangerously incomplete—and how to fix yours.
✔️ What to do if your medication requires refrigeration in a power outage.

🚨 Preparedness isn’t about panic—it’s about action. The time to get ready is NOW. 🚨

If you rely on daily medications or supplements, this episode is for you. Don’t wait until the crisis starts—because by then, it’s already too late.
