(NaturalNews) With the state of the world today, it is no surprise that the demand for survival supplies and gear has skyrocketed. "Preppers," as we are often called, are people who take personal responsibility and self-reliance very seriously. With preparedness rising in popularity, the number of companies who offer such supplies has also increased. But not all supplies are created equal.

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, created CWC Labs so we could all learn more about what is in our food, water, and environment. Adams spent two years completing laboratory compliance work and extensive quality control development to attain the coveted ISO 17025 certification. The ISO 17025 certification is the highest standard of international lab accreditation. It's an internationally recognized symbol of excellence and it takes years of dedication to achieve. In other words; CWC Labs is an authentic lab that has attained the highest level of international certification for excellency – it's a lab you can trust will provide accurate testing results.

The Health Ranger has used his lab to test all kinds of things, including water filters. But more recently, after attaining ISO certification, Adams decided to take a closer look at popular preparedness foods, and what was actually in them. Adams said that what he found in many products left him in disbelief.

"I was shocked to discover that the brands being most heavily promoted on the internet -- like WISE Foods and Mountain House -- contained ingredients laced with pesticides, GMOs, hidden MSG, refined sugars and all sorts of other questionable ingredients..."

Of the many products he tested, Chef's Banquet products were among some of the most questionable. Perhaps one of the most appalling things about this product is that their product page on Readyproject.com boasts that their foods are free of high-fructose corn syrup – yet the food they produce is actually manufactured with corn syrup solids.

Naturally, the presence of such an ingredient is not preferable; even more unsettling is that it contains other GMO corn derivatives such as corn starch and hydrolyzed corn gluten. Adams also found that Chef's Banquet products contain many other questionable ingredients such as GMO soy and hidden sources of MSG. Refined sugars and hydrogenated oils were also present in their foods, alongside pesticides, artificial colorants, chemical flavor enhancers and chemical preservatives.

Many people might argue that it is still better than starving to death, but why choose to purchase a product that contains these ingredients? Pesticides, synthetic chemicals and GMOs are known to produce a variety of unwanted side effects that could compromise your health, especially in a survival situation.

These are not symptoms you want to be dealing with when you are on the run or trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic society. Adams himself states that he would not feed himself GMOs, pesticides or other such toxins, even in a survival situation -- and that he was shocked that popular survival foods like Chef's Banquet even contained so many of these kinds of ingredients.

That's why Mike Adams has been working together with Numanna to co-formulate and lab-validate a more wholesome alternative for preppers who want the option of choosing clean, organic food no matter what is going on in the world. Their efforts have created the Numanna Organic Family Pack, which contains 95 percent organic ingredients. The Health Ranger was committed to creating a product that avoided all of the worst possible ingredients that are so often found in typical survival foods.

The organic family pack he's created with Numanna uses no GMOs, no pesticide or herbicide-grown ingredients, no chemical preservatives, no autolyzed or hydrolyzed anything, no polysorbate-80, no propylene glycol and none of the other chemicals often used in preparedness meals. Furthermore, this line of products is also made without artificial colorants, artificial flavorings, carrageenan, MSG or corn syrup.

The Health Ranger and Numanna have joined forces to create some of the cleanest, most wholesome survival foods available on the market that is also lab-tested and verified for authenticity.
