***Wheat has long been considered the most important “stock” item in a food storage system, not only for its shelf life but for its exceptional nutritional value. However, people who are unable or allergic to heat can substitute with other foods such as soybeans, almonds, milk and eggs, and receive the same nutrient content.

Suggested Amounts To Store For One Year: From the Federal Emergency Management Agency Uncooked Dry Goods: (Note: We have added the increased caloric need of Pregnant or Nursing Mothers and the growth spurt of Teenagers to Column A and the caloric need of Youths age 7-13 and Seniors to column B.):

	Column A	Column B	Column C
FEMA Recommendations	Adult Male Pregnant or Nursing Mother Some active teenagers 14-18	Adult Female Seniors Some teenagers. Youths age 7 - 13	Small Children age 6 or under
Wheat	275 lbs	175 lbs	60 lbs
Other Grains	125 lbs	115 lbs	50 lbs
Legumes (Beans and Peas)	75 lbs	50 lbs	15 lbs
Sweeteners	65 lbs	60 lbs	40 lbs
Powdered Milk*	60 lbs	60 lbs	80 lbs
Eggs - #10cans*	2 cans	2 cans	1 cans
Salt	10 lbs	10 lbs	2 lbs
* Optional. Not an absolute necessity. (Some info in red ink above added by a retired nurse.)

Using these guidelines we believe that pregnant women & some teenagers between the ages of 14 and 18 should be calculated the same as adult males. Youths between 7 and 13 calculated as adult females and children 6 or under at the small children rate. Seniors can manage at the adult female rate Column B. So:

Adult males, pregnant females, nursing mothers and active teenage boys age 14-18 need 1 bucket per month or 12 Buckets/year.

Adult females, most teenage girls, youths between 7 and 13 and inactive Seniors need .825 bucket per month each or 9 buckets/year.

Small children 6 or under need 1/3 bucket per month or 4 buckets/year.

Calculate the number of buckets you need to feed your family by figuring how many are Column A persons, how many are Column B and how many are Column C.
