Balanced Diet after SHTF

One thing to be concerned with after any situation where regular meals may be up to you and what you have stored or can gather.

In a side note, for those who are depending on being able to hunt for meat, please take a look around, our country doesn't have the animal life it once had in terms of supporting people.  Heck I'd go so far as to say our world doesn't.  Watch Survivorman and see how much food a highly trained, experienced and practiced survivor finds when dropped down in the middle of nowhere.  The take-away is notice how often he goes hungry.   Now make that one guy a couple, or a family of 4, or two families of 8 or a group of 20.   How far is that one snake, handful of edible grass gong to go with that many people? 

So back on topic, one of the things that those of you who are stockpiling grain, honey and salt should also consider is the human body requires a lot of amino acids to function properly on top of all the vitamin'y and mineral'y things we need.

Some of those amino acids can typically only be found in meat, honest to goodness animal flesh. 

You're also at risk of malnutrition thanks to a deficiency of B12, Iron, D, Calcium, Iodine and Omega-3 fatty acids.

Wikipedia outlines some of the problems with lacks of these things and where they can lead -

As a result, stock up on your multi-vitamins, yes I know the old saw about American's having the most expensive urine in the world thanks to their taking multi-vitamins and not processing them but I'd rather piss out 50% of a multi-vitamin than be deficient in B12 and have unrecoverable nerve generation.

Also plan on growing some nut trees.  And get started on those now, nature isn't in any rush to provide you with food.  And toss in a 25lb bag of iodized salt in your kit, it costs nothing or next to nothing and a litle goes a long way.
