Benefits of honey were largely forgotten when easy and cheap sugar made its entrance into our modern world. Until the arrival of this bleached white sweetener most people had a bee hive in their garden or at the very least knew a local bee keeper or two from which they purchased their honey.
Honey is packed full of nutrition with a huge amount of essential vitamins, minerals, enzymes and the most incredible healing properties. It is a fat free food which also tastes divinely sweet. Far sweeter than sugar which means you need less of it.
In remote areas of tropical forests and mountain regions local people go to extraordinary lengths to retrieve honey from tree and rock hives. They literally defy the thought of any dangers to climb these trees and cliffs to get to this source of nutrition to feed their families.
By eating a couple of good spoonfuls of honey each day you will be consuming these essential ingredients which will help to keep your immune system in tip top condition. The benefits of honey include its ability to cure any bad bacteria lurking around in your system but will leave all the essential bacteria needed alone.
Most stomach bugs and digestive disorders including IBS symptoms are relieved with the benefits of eating honey even to the extent of destroying helicobacter pylori which is the main cause of stomach ulcers. That alone has to be an impressive honey benefit.
Almost everyone when suffering with a cold, cough or symptoms of flu will seek out medication which contains honey and lemon but by having these two natural ingredients to hand in your own kitchen and stirring into a glass of boiled but not too hot water you have your own instant cup of comfort. These will soothe your throat, calm that irritating tickle, relive your headache and induce calmness helping you to drift off to sleep.
Add the benefits of honey with fresh ingredients such as garlic, apple cider vinegar, fresh ginger and also cinnamon will relive many uncomfortable conditions such as arthritis, heartburn, nausea and help to keep your heart healthy.
Many top sports people use the benefits of honey and its nutritional content as a super energy boost which is long lasting and also helps to allow their bodies recover more quickly after extensive exercise.
The medical benefits of honey have been documented for centuries however; these too have been largely forgotten due to Chemical Giants inventing more and more different types of artificial anti-biotics. The reason for more and more of these inventions are quite simply we become immune to them!
This just doesn't happen with the benefits of honey; we cannot become immune to their benefits. They are natural and healing and now researched more thoroughly as it has been discovered honey is capable of curing MRSA. Now, there are many hospitals that use this for the treatment of burns, on patients with open post operative wounds, bed sores and even severe nappy rash on babies.
There is actually nothing new here, soldiers fighting in terrible wars even recently during the Gulf wars have used the benefits of honey to treat their war wounds. Honey eats away at infections promoting quick and effective healing and because it doesn't dry out will not pull away new skin tissue when dressings are changed.
Bacterial infections lurk around every part of our bodies which also includes our eyes, skin and mouths. Drip a little diluted honey into your eye infections; use it as a mouthwash, dab some on your cold sores, spots and pimples and all these bacteria will be destroyed very quickly without any nasty side effects.
