Why Calories Are So Important in Survival Food Australia!
The average person doing minimal amounts of work needs about 2500 calories per day to maintain full functionality.
Partaking in survival activities can easily increase this to over 3000. Although to support human life 1200 calories can be targeted in severe survival situations so you will need survival food to support these needs.
About Calories
Calories are an important and overlooked aspect in any survival plan. A calorie is a unit of energy and refers to the energy people get from the food and drink they consume. A big concern in a survival setting is losing calories too quickly that you've put into your body.
The minimum calories per day needed to survive is a highly variable figure. It depends on your age, gender, activity level and even your genetics.
Everything we do during an emergency boils down to two actions: saving calories and getting more calories. Vitamins, minerals, fiber and other nutrients are key to helping your body and brain perform at peak levels. The extra calories by working a little harder to make a suitable shelter, rather than wasting calories shivering each night. For every calorie you burn, you must find ways to replace it. Thinking about this while choosing your Survival Food is critical.
Vitamins, minerals, fibre and other nutrients are key to helping your body and brain perform at peak levels. It's important to know that your body needs to be putting in as many calories as it's letting out. If you are in a survival situation and you need to go out and hunt for food (which you need to be trained on what you can safely eat anyway) it's most likely safer for you to stay in your shelter and fasting because your body will tap into it's protein and fat storage.
