Natural News founder/editor Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, has announced that the Health Ranger Store is launching its “9 Days of Joy” Christmas holiday sale, featuring discounted pricing on nearly everything in stock – with some products as much as 50 percent off.

In making his announcement, Adams said that all items featured in this sale have been specially selected by store personnel for the holiday season. What’s more, he said, items have been grouped into specific categories, including a category for men.

Featured in the “For Him” category are Ranger Gear products designed for the avid prepper. These items have been further grouped into the “Ultimate Ranger Gear Survival Gift Set,” which includes the handy Credit Card Knife with the metal handle, the Survival Multi-Tool, Outdoor Mini Camp Stove, Paracord Bracelet and the RFID Blocking Sleeve, among other things.

The Credit Card Knife almost works like magic, in that you can quickly transform this “credit card” into a functional knife that will have loads of practical applications, both in everyday life and emergency situations. Just like a credit card, this transformative knife fits very well in your wallet. Concealed inside, however, is a 65mm polished stainless steel blade. When folded carefully, as per the instructions, the blade locks into position with a solid, tough handle, then can be easily folded back into its original safety position. It is rugged and designed to last a lifetime.

The Ranger Gear Multi-Function Shovel, meanwhile, is many tools in one. In a single package, this shovel/tool provides you with nearly everything you would need in a survival situation. You can use it to dig, hoe, hammer, start fire, chop wood, cut rope and wire, open bottles, scale fish, take a measurement, break glass, tie safety cordage, whistle for help and much more. In fact, you can even use it as a formidable weapon for self-defense. It is very easy to assemble and it will fit perfectly into its own portable, rugged bag. It’s made of aircraft-grade aluminum and, Adams notes, it will make a great gift for Christmas.

Also included in the “For Him” collection is the Ranger Gear Paracord Bracelet with Watch, a multi-use survival tool that will come in handy when the SHTF. And because it is so convenient, it is a must-have preparedness tool; it enables you to carry several feet of paracord with you at all times, for use in an emergency and countless other survival situations. And this particular paracord also comes with a quartz movement watch and compass, which gives you extra tools for prepping needs. But that’s not all: This set also features a high-decibel emergency whistle, a flint stone fire starter and a serrated cutting edge.

In addition to all of these prepping and survival tools, the “For Him” collection will feature a Cupping Therapy Gift Set as well. Cupping therapy has been used by health practitioners for thousands of years, but it wasn’t until the invention of modern materials that this therapeutic practice has really taken off. Once the cups used for cupping therapy were made of glass, and they were inflexible and fragile. Today, however, the cups are made of silicone, and that provides extraordinary advantages. They are virtually unbreakable, very portable and pliable, and most importantly, it is easy to control the degree of suction simply by squeezing the cups more firmly or gently, depending on personal preference.

Unlike acupressure or massage therapy – which compresses muscles and tissues – cupping therapy decompresses by gently pulling tissue outward, creating space that boosts circulation, tones the skin and tissues, and helps move lymph. Not only that, say cupping therapy supporters, but it feels fantastic.

There are many other products in the “For Him” collection as well – and all at greatly reduced savings, just in time for the Christmas shopping season. In addition, Adams noted that the Health Ranger Store will be shipping sale items for free, in the 48 contiguous states only, with orders over $49. Also, he noted that products and pricing are being offered only while supplies last.

Adams stressed that the 9 Days of Joy sale is aimed at giving something back this holiday season – a way of saying “thank you” to all of his loyal readers and customers.
