Honey, Raw and Unfiltered

Honey is a naturally produced food that has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial properties. While honey has a high sugar content (mainly fructose and glucose), studies have shown more positive effects of eating honey than negative effects, especially in children, people with cancer, cardiovascular patients, and diabetics.


In traditional medicine, honey was used as a treatment for cancer, eye disease, bronchial asthma, throat infections, tuberculosis, fatigue, dizziness, parasites, piles, eczema, hepatitis, ulcers, wounds, constipation, and the list goes on. Studies have shown honey to have a protective effect against diabetes, respiratory illness, cardiovascular disease, nervous system problems, and even cancer.
