Honey Recipes

HEALING WITH HONEY
When you select honey for medicinal use, always buy a variety that is produced by an apiary local to your area. Ingesting local pollens found in honey can build resistance to allergies over time. The honey should be raw, not heated or processed.

1 HONEY FLU REMEDY
Take a six-inch ginger root and slice it. Put it in a non-aluminum pot with about 3 cups of fresh water. Cover the pot tightly and bring to a simmer. Allow the water to simmer (not boil) for about twenty minutes. Remove from the stove and add the juice of half a lemon, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and honey to taste. This is a great remedy for bronchitis and flu.

HONEY THROAT SYRUP
Take several cloves of fresh garlic. (Please don't use the genetically altered, odorless variety. It has lost its healing virtue.) Place the garlic in a blender with the juice of half a lemon. Blend until smooth. Add 1 cup raw honey and blend again. This mixture can be taken as it is in teaspoon doses for a sore throat, or strained through a cheesecloth and bottled for later use.

GARLIC AND HONEY WOUND DRESSING
If you have a cut or a wound, wash it carefully and then apply chopped or mashed raw garlic, which will kill any bacteria or viruses. Cover the garlic with a slather of honey and apply a clean bandage. The honey will keep the wound anaerobic (without oxygen) so bacteria will be unable to grow in it.

Thank you for posting this! Especially the honey and garlic healing salve. Do you know why the honey and garlic act the way they do? i can't figure it out. Do you have a particullar brand of honey you would recomend for the salve?

Also just a reminder not to give honey to young infants for the bacteria in the honey could possibly kill them.

Also, honey is the only food that naturally never spoils. How strange. And the home remedies are kinda cool. Thanks Archangel_Baw, for posting them, and thank you whoever wrote them for, obviously, writing them.

The main reason that Honey never spoils is the high sugar content. Sugars inhibit the growth of most fungal and bacteriological agents and help to preserve the food (why do you think they call them strawberry preserves ?)

Honey does however have some special properties that can't be attributed to the sugar content. There's been a lot of research lately into a type of honey found in New Zealand called Manuka honey that has some very promising properties.

It seems this honey has a mysterious 'something' that makes it very effective when used as a wound dressing. They've used it with a lot of success treating the type of sores that diabetics develop.

Not only does it seem to help cure this type of stubborn wound, but it is showing a lot of usefulness in treating staph infections that are resistant to antibiotics and it seems to be effective against the MSRA strain of staph infection.

I'm working on a lens about it over at www.squidoo.com/manuka_honey if you'd like to take a look. It's not done yet but it'll probably make you curious enough to do some research like I did.

The beehoney has very valuable qualities for the human being. Its components are:
Carbohydrates - (70 - 80%), presented mainly - glucose and fructose, sucrose and about 20 other saccharides. The whole amount of glucose and fructose vary between 65 - 75%. The content of sucrose is below 5% , but in some cases (honey from acacia, lavander and other) can reach up to 8%.
Water - composes about 15 - 20% of the composition of the honey. When the content of water is more than 20% have conditions for fermentation processes.
Organic acids - in very low quantity
Mineral substances - potassium, sodium, calcium, phosphorus, sulphur, magnesium
Proteins - about 0,1 - 0,5%
Amino acids - in the honey they are about 20 - lysin, glycerin, phenylalanine and others...

The beehoney is often used as a medicine. It is used mainly or subsidiary medical tool for curing gastritis or irregular acidity of the stomach. It has healing effect in diseases of the respiratory system and also for inflammation diseases of the skin and the mucous membranes which is due to its antibacterial effect.

Also, if you have trouble falling asleep, make yourself a "tea" using one tablespoon honey, one tabelspoon apple cider vinegar, and hot water. It's delicious, relaxing, and will help you fall asleep.

I like to replace most of the sugar in my baked goods with honey. It gives them a nice flavor, and helps keep them moist.
