Health Benefits of Honey

[Taosman]

Now is a great time to introduce local honey into your diet and improve your
health and resistance to allergies! I started local honey, on the recommendation of locals, for my allergies. The result is my allergies have been reduced by 80%! Honey is high in antioxidants and is believed to be a cancer fighter.
A cure all? No! But, very beneficial to your over all health.

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]Approximately one half of the human diet is derived directly or indirectly from crops pollinated by bees. Today honeybees are an essential part of a healthy agriculture economy. If you have allergies, honey can be beneficial. If you eat honey that is local to your area, it may prevent your seasonal allergies. Bees use the pollen from local plants and eventually it ends up in your honey. [/FONT]

Also, it's the only food that doesn't spoil.

Works for me....

I started eating honey from local keepers for my allergies a couple of years ago, also from the recommendation of a friend. The difference has been noticeable. Other people have been getting killed every time the pollen count goes up, while I have had my reactions significantly reduced.

Twinkies? :p

Twinkies will spoil. If you happen to live to be 10,000 years old, you'll see.

I would definitely like to introduce Honey into my diet.

You are probably right about it not being good for infants.

I prefer to get my honey from mead.

My world is crashing down around me. I can't stand twinkies, but I've been saving boxes of them for armageddon.

Honey is naturally quite long-lived: Archaeologist T.M. Davies discovered 3,300-year-old jar of honey in an Egyptian tomb. To his amazement, the honey was in remarkably good condition.

To keep your honey in top form, store it at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Do not refrigerate honey; it speeds crystallization. To avoid sticky situations, place honey jars and bottles on a saucer or disposable coaster.

"I'm not just another cute condiment, I've got culture."
For centuries, honey was the primary sweetener throughout the world. Egyptian tomb reliefs from the third century B.C. show workers collecting honey from hives. Chinese manuscripts from the same period contain poems and songs praising honey and its many uses. Today, honey is an important ingredient in nearly every culture's cuisine.
