Sensibly Prepared: Organic Drink Powder as Emergency Supply (Not Only) for Preppers

The Federal Office for Agriculture and Food writes on its website ernaehrungsvorsorge.de:

There are good reasons to maintain a personal stock of food even in today's times, despite a generally very reliable food distribution system. On the one hand, a private stock provides personal supply security in times of crisis – these can already be a prolonged power outage or being cut off from food supply due to floods or snow.

But how realistic are such emergencies in today's times?

• am 03. Januar 2026 wurde ein Brandanschlag auf das Stromnetz in Berlin-Lichterfelde verübt. In der Folge blieben rund 45.000 Haushalte (inkl. Firmen, Altenheimen, Kliniken, Feuerwehren etc.) über mehrere Tage (bis zum 07. Januar 2026) ohne Strom.
• am 05. Februar 2026 kam es – scheinbar aufgrund eines Schaltfehlers – zu einem kurzen Stromausfall in Stuttgart, der hauptsächlich das Internet, Ampeln und Stadtbahnen betroffen hatte.
• aufgrund von schweren Schneefällen kam es durch umgestürzte Bäume zu Schäden an Stromleitungen Ende Januar / Anfang Februar 2026, wodurch über 200.000 Haushalte in Bayern, Sachsen und anderen Bundesländern ohne Strom blieben.

At the beginning of 2026 alone, there were extreme weather conditions, power outages, and terrorist attacks in Germany.

In Berlin, many households had to be evacuated and without power, neither ovens nor heaters work. Many people were caught off guard by these outages and were left bewildered. Many subsequently also hungry and freezing.

It is therefore undeniable to at least prepare and provision for emergencies.

Based on the recommendations of the official stock calculator of the Federal Ministry for Agriculture, Nutrition, and Home Affairs zugrunde und nimmt einen Stromausfall wie in Berlin an (5 Tage kein Strom, Haushalt mit 3 Personen), ergeben sich folgende Mengen, die man bevorraten sollte:

• 5 kg of grain products, bread, potatoes
• 6 kg of vegetables and mushrooms
• 4 kg of fruit
• 30 litres of drinks
• 4 kg of milk and dairy products
• 2 kg of eggs, meat, sausage, and fish
• 500 grams of fats and oils

But preppers and people who prepare for possible crises are peculiar!

Prepper (from the English "to be prepared") means nothing more than thinking about possible crisis situations or emergencies and not being caught off guard when such a case occurs.

Of course, there are sensible precautionary measures and extreme outgrowths. Many people in Berlin would have wished for sensible precaution (but also quick, uncomplicated, and sensible help from politics and aid organisations) and do not stockpile for the next ten years. But stockpiling for the next ten+ days is certainly sensible.

The notion that only peculiar people are capable of critical thinking, planning, and preparing for crisis situations is far-fetched. Moreover, a sensible risk analysis and impact assessment is part of every business plan, every properly conducted project, and an important part of planning infrastructure, crisis intervention teams, police, fire brigade, and THW.

Anyone who considers preparation and precaution as "peculiar" should reconsider what would happen if no one prepared. Anyone who has ever had to borrow ingredients from a neighbour for a dish, run out of nappies for the baby over the weekend, or unexpectedly run out of toilet paper quickly realises that preparation is nothing extraordinary, but something very normal – and important.

Organic drink powder as sensible crisis food

For those considering acquiring emergency supplies but do not want to have a lot of food lying around or be dependent on being able to cook in a crisis situation, there is a logical option:

Organic drink powder from Platinum

Anyone wanting to store complete meals in a small space that can be prepared with minimal effort will find a healthy solution here. The advantages are obvious:

• the cans of plant-based drink powder have a long shelf life
• they provide valuable nutrients, fibre, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, secondary plant compounds, and fibre substances, trace elements, and more
• they can be prepared in seconds: glass, water, spoon. Stir, drink, done.
• various flavours are available
• the drink powders are filling (especially Hippocrates Power) and offer a comprehensive nutrient profile
• they are affordable and can be stored well

For simple and as healthy as possible emergency supplies, the organic drink powders are very well suited.

Ideally, you consume them daily anyway, e.g., in the Raw.Bio.Genius package or with the LifeSpan Programme and thus take advantage of the many benefits every day.

And have one or two extra cans as a reserve, just in case something goes wrong.

A few examples of the Platinum Drinks are:

Sensible emergency preparedness in the area of nutrition can be so simple and so good.
