I have been reading articles about Honey - in particular - a product called Medihoney, which is made from manuka honey, cultivated in Australia - is a natural antibiotic and it is used to heal wounds and also reduce the risk of anemia and infection in cancer patients getting chemotherapy. It also helps fight the superbugs that are antibiotic resistant. It has been FDA approved and is used in diabetic wound care.

Local honey also helps with allergies because of the pollen, etc.

I love honey and peanut butter sandwiches.

Every day we should have a cup of green tea with a heaping tbsp of honey and a heaping tsp of cinnamon (helps blood sugar).

Also, if you have a sore throat, cough, cold and the ick, you take a chigger of whiskey, put in a couple tablespoons of honey and some lemon juice, and drink it down. Makes you feel almost right again.

The honey coats and heals, and sweetens the whiskey and lemon juice
The lemon juice helps kill bacteria and fight infection with it's vitamin C.
And the whiskey, well it just makes you feel better, but it does work.

Honey must be good for ya. Elderly woman in my condo building -- 'bout 95 years old and keeps on goin' -- LOVES honey. Must consume a good bit of it. I give her honey every year for Christmas. This year I got Tupelo honey from Smiley Apiaries on the Florida Panhandle. One of my truly most favorite movies is "Ulee's Gold". The gold is Tupelo honey.

Local HOney, I can't say it enough if you live in an area where there are apiaries and you suffer from allergies, honey is one awesome remedy, not for alleviating, but for CURING.

Just don't give honey to hummingbirds! The honey ferments rapidly in the feeder.
