    PSA- only use medical grade honey! When I was a second year podiatry student in a Large hospital I was in line to work up the first patient of the day. As I was walking from the office to his room I could smell the patient before I saw him. When I got there I asked him what he was dressing the wound with. "I was using medihoney but I couldn't make my appointment last week so I used some Manuka honey from my shelf." Well it caused him to have gas gangrene with, you guessed it a clostridium infection. He ended up loosing his entire lower leg because of that infection.:{ Morale of the story always use medical grade honey on wounds.

Potentially he used a Manuka honey that had chemicals added to it and that was the problem? Either way, I'm going to continue using (our personally made) Manuka honey.

    A few years ago i went to a really out of the way place in Egypt to give some free first aid training. We had all the books and modern knowledge and I guess in that knowledge felt self righteous. When i asked .a group how do you treat a burn they said “put honey on it” - “ oh no” i said “you do this blah blah blah”. Little did i know how correct they were. The honey protected the burn from becoming infected. I also asked how to treat a bleeding wound, their answer- pour coffee granules on it!! I was shocked at this utter lack of knowledge and common sense until i found out that coffee granules act as a very powerful coagulant!! In our quest to move forward we often ignore our knowledge from the past!

Failure to use this gene caused multiple spikes to appear, like a hedgehog's quill. So how do they name this gene in human? It's...... Sonic Hedgehog Gene (Shh). Because one of the researchers just saw an ad of SEGA game. So if you have a bored scientist with world-level invention, you can find random names everywhere. Ever google Sonic and ended up with mixed up result from neurobiology site? His fault, really.. :D :D

    The scientific/explanation part is flawless. I just wish there's more in terms of advice and application in/for the real world. In the beginning I was unsure if the dude wanted me to have it part of my diet or have it apply on wounds or scratches. When he said "eat" in the end I thought, "Oh, alright." But all that explaining to only have the bottom line 'eat'? I don't know sounds lacking. Incidentally, this is kind of why I get put off with the academe sometimes. Everything is either facts and theories but there's not even examples to cite in real life. But let's not end it on a negative note. Bees are awesome and we should protect them at all costs.

    Eating it does nothing for wound care. The research says medical grade MANUKA honey applied topically under appropriate guidance from a wound care specialist is effective. This cannot be generalized to other types of honey, as manuka honey has special properties including the increased amount of OH ions which contribute to its antibacterial/ bacteriostatic effectiveness. There are loads of studies on this available thru Coghlan’s if you’re interested. I did a project on this in a research course in nursing school about 10 years ago.

    I'm also a beekeeper (family has been beekeeping for 3 generations), and on the side I do pest control. And this comment section... I really love how theirs a more focus on bees and entomology, don't get me wrong. Yes we are in the stages of a massive colony breakdown (I lost 150 hives last year to CCD caused by harmful and aggressive pesticides, and another 75 to the extreme cold in the pacific NW which can be attributed to climate change.) and we're all grateful to the awareness that it being spread. But I have seen so many people In one breath say "save the bees! Support your local beekeeper! You need to be more environmentally conscious!" And then turn around with a can of raid and destroy a native hive or ground nest because it's not neatly packed in a box, and their all self righteous. Wasps and Hornets are part of this eco system too, and they have their place. I relocate the hives I capture if I can. Those areas you just riddled with the insect equivalent of a biochemical bomb are places where my bees go too, just, be mindful of what your putting into the ecosystem. It has consequences you cannot even imagine. If your having problems with a hive try hiring a pest control professional who (if it's an option, some hives you just cannot relocate because their in the walls or something) is able to not use pesticides, and if theirs a honeybee swarm, call your local beekeeper or beekeeping Guild, they'll be more than happy to handle it.

    We use Manuka honey on our horses for wounds. Our BIG guy had a stick stuck in about 15" inches in an upwards direction from the bottom of his chest toward his neck . It was approximately 2" in diameter and left a big hole when we pulled it out. Another one had a 6' triangular flap of skin hanging off his chest. Both healed up very quickly and you now have to look very hard to see where it was. Put a generous amount on the wounds, and kept re-applying as necessary. And what really surprised me was there were no flies or other insects that were attracted to it. It may be expensive, but it's worth its weight in gold when it comes to healing.

    I have used honey 3 times for bacterial infections. The worst one was a severe infected cyst just under my jaw, the whole side of my face was swollen with tooth and ear ache. I was in the hospital for 5 days on iv antibiotics and steroids. I still had the infected cyst when I went home. I filled a plastic spoon with honey, and smeared and held up the honey to the cyst for 15 minutes then splashed it with water in the shower. The pus from the infection started pouring out and I had to keep swishing it down the drain, when I brushed my teeth the pus ran out into the basin. For the rest of the day I used paper towel Kleenex was too small. The wound was completely cleaned out from infection and then healed.

Bees are very clean and they don't leave their dead parts lying around in hive and ESPECIALLY not inside honey. If there are any bee parts, it is most likely that someone damaged a bee during honeycomb extraction but from my experience, beekepers try to be really careful and delicate. My grandpa had a special brush made out of feathers to brush off bees from combs. And rotary honey extractor is not a cofee grinder. It doesn't chop up bits inside. It's only rotating a few frames with honey combs, making honey to splash on sides and flow freely down.

    But! A lot of what is sold in the grocery store as "honey" really isn't. If your honey is nice and clear, it has been highly filtered. Technically, if the pollen has been filtered out, the product no longer fits the definition of "honey". Worse yet, they pasteurize it - not only is pasteurization totally unnecessary, it destroys the health promoting enzymes. Then, they cut it with high fructose corn syrup. The best source for honey is from local beekeepers. Raw, right from the hive, with bits of comb and what-not still included. Failing that, next best would be a health food store. Again, look for local if at all possible. Locally produced honey will have local pollens and can actually reduce allergies! But RAW honey is most important whether it is local or not.

    Well it's because if you apply honey to an open wound, it's like your adding a protective layer of antibacterial shielding. In the middle ages, doctors would cauterize and kill surface bacteria with boiling wine, then apply honey to the wound to make sure new bacteria doesn't get into it, then cover the wound up with a form of bandage. That's how most flesh wounds were treated! No wonder how we got so far in advancing medicine, amazing isn't it?

    that really doesnt work to help anyone understand how acidic honey is considered because most people (including me) are unable to notice the acidity in water, cant taste it, is overwhelmed by its other chemical properties when used as a cleaner. so from my perspective 1000 times as acidic as water is effectively 1000*0 so 0. so to help myself and perhaps others i will use the method you demonstrated to explain its acidity. distilled vinegar has a PH of about 2.6 (according to wikipedia), so 2.6-4=1.4 and 10^1.4=~25 so honey is 1/25th as acidic as distilled vinegar.

    Too bad most of the "honey" sold in stores is just honey flavored corn syrup. I'm fortunate to live in the midwest where beekeepers are almost everywhere, I can get fresh REAL honey fairly easily during the spring and summer. Local honey is truly the greatest, not only because of the amazing flavor, but it's produced from the same pollens that cause your seasonal allergies. If you suffer from seasonal allergies eating local honey will definitely help you out.
