What Can Local Honey Do For You

Honey Can Counter Pollen Allergies

Raw honey contains pollen, collected by local bees from the very flowers that cause you to suffer. When you consume that honey you are also ingesting the same offending pollen, which may take you less sensitive to this pollen over time. Think of it as a tasty allergy shot.

Honey is a Natural Energy Source

Comprised of approximately 80 percent sugar, 18 percent water and 2 percent minerals, vitamins, pollen and protein, it is not surprising that honey has been called “the perfect running fuel.” It was actually used in ancient Greece by runners in the Olympic Games.

Honey is an Antioxidant Powerhouse

Studies have shown that a daily dose of honey can boost your immune system by raising antioxidant levels. It contains polyphenols, which have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

Honey Can Help with Dandruff

Apply a diluted solution of honey and water to the scalp, leave it on for a few hours and it should help with dandruff and scalp itch, due to its anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

Honey Can Kick Start Your Libido

Honey is a natural aphrodisiac, helping men produce more testosterone and women with estrogen levels. The Vikings, Greeks and Chinese believed that honey and fertility were linked.
