I cut the tip of my finger off while slicing croutons on a bandsaw. I applied honey to it multiple times a day everyday for a month and the tip of the finger grew back!!!
Honey is truly a miracle, and it never goes bad.
We were cruising New Zealand when the news of covid came out in 2020. I already had symptoms….one of which was respiratory and a horrific cough…I mean bad. Not to claim Manuka honey cured me but absolutely helped quell some of the coughing at times when it was at its worst. I had purchased Manuka honey lozenges while on one excursion…didn’t cure me…but managed some of the coughing outbursts!! Am well over it now of course.
A friend's raw honey saved my sled dog from having to travel 350 miles to get a skin graft after a tumor removal just below the hock on his hind leg. All the stitches pulled out on day five, leaving a three inch long open wound. I poured honey onto the wound daily and applied fresh dressings. Captain became very good about holding still for this and not chewing off the bandages, tho at first it was a terrific struggle with nobody to hold him. After one week the speed in which that open wound drew together was phenomenal. I would highly recommend raw honey for any open wound. I carry it in my wilderness survival kit.
We keep (local) honey on hand in case my husband's blood sugar plummets quickly, like if he does not eat a meal on schedule or if he does not eat enough at a meal to make it to the next meal. Otherwise, he rarely indulges. Honey will raise your blood sugar level quickly. I love sour wood honey on toast with peanut butter. Yum!
It's too bad that a dose of honey can't raise some people's I.Q. Not everyone is diabetic and those that are have enough sense to understand their particular problem with sugar. They don't need the "Diabetic Police". If you just have to correct something---- but a dog!
Very true. My husband is diabetic. Honey does the same to his blood sugar that white sugar does.
I KNOW I WON'T RECEIVE AN ANSWER BUT A DIABETIC PERSON SHOULD NOT INTAKE 1 TABLESPOON FOR COUGH OR FOR SLEEP!!!!!! THAT COMPROMISE YOUR LEVEL OF SUGAR IN THE BLOODSTREAM!!!!!! NOT EVEN A TEASPOON!!!!!! THAT IS A DANGEROUS METHOD!!!!!!!!!!
My Dr said that she would rather me eat honey than other sweeteners I'm diabetic your bodie will process it better then sugar
Hello Jenny, yes, ingesting honey when you're a diabetic could be a recipe for disaster. I suspect most diabetics know this, but for those who do not, I appreciate you making the point. Thank you!
