Health Benefits of Honey

Health Benefits of Honey

What are The Health Benefits of Honey? Are there really any Benefits of Eating Honey? Is Honey Nutrition that good?

Are there any Real Honey Cures? and Is Honey Good for You? Is there any scientific evidence and Proof?

All very valid questions and because I have experienced the power of honey cures myself by curing my own daughter, I can answer them for you.

Firstly, It is an important nutritional food source which has been proven beyond doubt to assist with a number of health related problems naturally, without the need for pills and potions made from chemicals.

Scientific Studies into the ~
Health Benefits of Honey


Scientific Research Studies have discovered more about its antioxidant contents which are also found in other foods such as good fruit and vegetables.

It actually represents a modern-day fountain of youth needed to combat aging and contribute to our overall good health.

Agricultural & Food Chemistry looked at honey's effect on human blood. The study found that honeys antioxidants are equal to those in many fruits and vegetables.

Honey plays an important (but as yet not fully realized) role in providing antioxidants in a highly palatable form, say researchers at the University of Illinois in Urbana, Illinois.

Scientists have studied the effects of increasing individual’s antioxidant levels through diet. Honey acts as an antioxidant in more ways than one.

In the body, honey can take up free radicals and contribute to better health.

According to research carried out on the health benefits of honey in Bulgaria, because honey has anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties.

This ensures the body has immunobiological defences and gives it the capacity to regenerate its attacked cells thus promoting healing.



These are also very good reasons as to why the health benefits of honey should be stacked up in jars in your own food cupboards. Mine certainly are!

Once I had discovered the health benefits of honey I threw out everything in my own cupboards filled with Sugar Substitutes having realized just how just bad they are for you.

I discovered there are natural alternatives and taught myself how easy it is to Substitute Honey for Sugar.

So impressive are the health benefits of honey I even went as far as inventing my own Honey Diet! I was pretty keen!

Properties of Honey ~
that Give us the ~
Health Benefits of Honey


Honey has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce inflammation even when there are no infections involved.

What other natural substance is there available to us that are able to make these claims? There are none!

The properties of honey also contain powerful and vital vitamins such as B1, B2, B3, B5 and C. It also contains Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Phosphates, Sulfur, Sodium Chloride and Zinc, in fact every vitamin and mineral we need to consume daily.

It contains completely natural antibiotic properties which act as anti-microbial agents; it is an anti-bacterial substance, and an anti-fungicide. It is also hygroscopic and packed with essential antioxidants.

However, the real health benefits of honey are the "Magical Ingredients" these are the enzymes injected by honey bees as they go about their business of pollinating our plants and collecting their nectar with which they make honey.

Enzymes are the most important factors which give us the incredible health benefits of honey.

Not all honeys important enzymes have been studied as yet simply because there are so many of them; however scientists have discovered the most important enzymes are Glucose Oxidase, Diastase, Invertase, Acid phosphates and Inulase.

All very important to ensuring our bodies are able to fight off bacterial infections that attack our immune systems and the main factors which give us the health benefits of honey.

It is capable of destroying most bacterial infections, those we tend to pick up frequently as we go about our own daily lives on our fingers and transfer to our mouths.

This list may surprise many of you who haven’t yet experienced some remarkable honey cures using the health benefits of honey.

Bacteria that are Sensitive to~
Health Benefits of Honey ~
Include:


Anthrax, Diphtheria, Urinary tract infections, Ear infections, Meningitis, Respitory infections, Sinusitis, Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, Infected animal bites, Typhoid, Dysentery, Abscesses,, Boils, Carbuncles, Impetigo, Tooth decay, Puerperal fever, Rheumatic fever, Scarlet fever, Sore throats and Cholera! Diarrhea, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Many forms of ulcers, Gastrointestinal problems, Staph infections and Asthma.

That is a pretty impressive list there I'm sure you'll agree. Those who include Raw Honey in their diet regularly, often experience a feeling of extreme well-being.

These symptoms are normal and should not be confused with psychic disorders! Why? Because a good quality honey is the ultimate energy boosting food.

Why Raw Honey in particular? Simply because this contains all bee products for health, these include pollen grains which are also extremely nutritious and traces of Propolis which is a very powerful and natural antibiotic.

Honey Nutrition can make those boasts because it is has such a unique formula.

Health Benefits of Eating Honey


Probably the best but often unknown Benefits of Eating Honey daily is its ability to produce natural home cures, these even include natural cures for Duodenal and gastric ulcers.

Most people assumed these were the cause of stress. It is now known they are caused by a germ known as Heli bacteria.

Just don’t give this nasty little germ the opportunity to germinate inside you, eat two to five teaspoons of honey every day. Honey is often recommended to those with gall bladder issues tooLuckily for us the health benefits of honey are being more frequently recognized and used as we become more immune to man-made antibiotics.

All forms of bacteria need water to survive and the natural properties in honey are capable killing them off. Further more you can not become immune to their amazing healing effects.

As long as man does not tamper or interfere with our honey (this is why you must buy a good raw variety) it will give you a natural feeling of wellness and a superb energy boost.

Health Benefits of Honey ~ as a Drink


Because honey health benefits also make the ultimate sports drink it's a great idea to keep a bottle of honey water with you when you work out or perform extensive exercises.

This will help to rehydrate your body and repair any tissue or muscle damage and whilst also allowing you optimize your performance.

Even many of today’s top athletes have recognized the health benefits of honey, it beats any top named sports drinks which may give you an instant power boost, however, they all lack the ability to repair any body damage.

Any Honey Drink will help you incorporate the health benefits of honey into your own daily diet.

Two great honey drinks which are extremely popular are Tea and Honey, very refreshing.

By adding a little honey you are cutting out those unnecessary table sugars, in particular white refined table sugar and chemical based Sugar Substitutes.

And who can forget the health benefits of Lemon and Honey! It’s my guess you reach for this when you have a cold or sore throat.

There is nothing more comforting or refreshing or even as effective which is why when you pop to your local drug-store or chemist you are most likely to reach for something that contains honey and lemon.

A Perfect Example of ~
Health Benefits of Honey ~
as a Drink


A perfect example of this can be attributed to the state of Kentucky known to be "rich in honey". It is the birthplace of Cassius Clay also known as Muhammad Ali.

A former boxer who believed he could "float like a butterfly and sting like a bee".

He, as many of you will remember, if you are old enough of course, was an amazing sportsman in the world of boxing.

At the age of 36 some sports writers had written him off believing he was now too old to win the world heavyweight championship for a record third time.

He was due to fight Leon Spinks and as the fight gained momentum he appeared to gain more and more strength and did indeed win the title for a record third time.

It later transpired he drank a tonic invented for him before the fight which amongst other things contained honey, pollen, vitamin E these were all mixed together with orange juice. British newspapers called it "Ali's Magic Potion"

You can easily follow his lead, the best way to do this is to eat or drink Raw Honey which contains the best Honey Nutrition.

He of course was by no means the most famous of "Muhammad's", the most famous of all recommended the health benefits of honey in the Koran as "a remedy for all diseases".

Wise man, he knew what he was talking about when recommending the benefits of eating honey daily.

Health Benefits of Honey ~
for Heartburn


Do you suffer frequently with heartburn? This is so painful with sharp burning sensations, very uncomfortable. A natural and effective honey cure is to simply eat it.

Honey settles this condition by neutralizing the acid in your stomach. These honey cures are great as natural home cures as Heart Burn Relief Home Remedies and settling acid reflux, honey can actually stop it before it begins!

Eating or drinking honey daily helps to create a clean environment; it destroys bad bacteria but leaves the good bacteria all alone!

How clever is that! Very beneficial as natural home cures for stomach bugs amongst many other things!

It must and I’ll always stress this be local raw honey, simply because it contains the pollen spores that more often than not are the cause of the allergies.

Health Benefits of Honey ~
Why Doesn't the Doctor Recommend Honey?


Ever since man discovered this substance honey; which can not be matched or created by anything other the honey bee, it has been enjoyed mainly for its taste.

However Hippocrates famous for his Hippocratic Oath can be quoted as having been one ancient health specialist who experienced first hand the actual health benefits of honey.

He used it very effectively to make many natural honey cures having recognized it as a superb form of nutrition.

He used his knowledge in his healing for many famous people at the time and watched as his patients health improved quite dramatically.

It is strange then that many of today’s modern health professionals who still follow his "Oath" do not recognize the health benefits of honey and the simple effectiveness of Honey Cures.

We can not really blame them because all of today’s health medications are given to us by our doctors because this is what they are taught at medical schools the world over.

Honey Benefits need a good airing again, that's the reason I tell you about them.

As far as the majority are concerned nothing else exists, man has taken over nature and continues to invent more pills and potions.

These are made by huge companies looking to make a fast buck and trying every known marketing trick in the book to convince us they are good for us!

Health Benefits of Honey ~
Some Doctors Who Do
Recognize it for Healing


I wanted to find some who did recognize these health benefits; it took some research and plenty of reading. Apart from the researchers I mentioned earlier in this article I did discover some more.

Honey for Allergies has been heard of by just about everyone. I looked into this in great detail. My own beekeeping friends tell me this is one of the best honey cures.

An Oklahoma allergist, Dr. William G. Peterson, much respected and a believer proved the effectiveness of the health benefits of honey and treated his patients accordingly.

Another much younger doctor is Dr Stephen Reisman who whilst studying medicine, noted gaps in conventional medicines and decided to look further into the health benefits of honey with surprising results.

Dr Reisman should be called Dr Wiseman because he was not frightened of being laughed at by his fellow students.

Honey for Allergies

He provided me with some more of the proof I searched for, not that I disbelieved my bee-keeping friends. Honey for Allergies really does provide the relief people search for.

How great is that, no more runny noses and eyes and faces that leak from every crevice!!

Health benefits of honey. There is nothing more natural and nothing to beat it. Try it for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

However, please not for small babies. Babies and Honey appear to have a health warning!
