Guest guest Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I did a google search on honey as an antibacterial.... found some interesting reading. Sounds like it is used for burns and wounds that wont heal. Straight up full strength. However there was a mention of diluted honey and some enzymes changing it into hydrogen peroxide. I am not 100% sure but I don't think you can drink H2O2 or peroxide. Might make a good fizzy KT LOL! I think I'll stick to sugar. I will however remember honey for burns/wounds. Too bad, I really like the taste of mead. Maybe that ain't good for me either. I guess one thing. I sure would hate to die perfectly healthy. Could have had a hotdog.....

It's anti-bacterial for the same reason high concentrations of salt are anti-bacterial. ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 I love the honey from Ames. http://www.amesfarm.com/ co-ops and whole foods and farmers market, etc. Single source, raw, the variety is amazing. I must have 15 different jars here of various varieties - buckwheat to elderberry (my fav but hard to find - bought them out of what they had at the farmer's market last time I was there). Not cheap but also not crazy expensive and worth it, I think.

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 we have a bee hive and get our bee keeping supplies (and additional honey) from Doug at Cannon Honey and Bee Supplies. He has delicious raw honey from his hives up north and has a St store located at Rice Street and Highway 36 NE Corner (building was once a house) next to Bob's Cycle on the east of Rice St. You can call him for hours (change during seasons) at 651-245-4009 Natasha > > Does anyone have a good source for raw honey they are willing to pass on? > > Happy New Year! > > a > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Homestead Honey, Sogn Valley MN... can be found in MOST co-ops in the Twin Cities I believe They sell it in the raw form(in mason jars) or in the more " traditional form " (in a squeeze bottle) " Nature never hurries: atom by atom, little by little, she achieves her work " - Ralph Waldo Emerson Tedd Pederson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 My dad is a beekeeper and he has some awesome honey. It's won Grand Champion at the County fair. They actually just did an article on him and his bees in the Dairyland Peach paper. So if you are still looking for a good source of raw honey let us know. scottfamilyhoney.com > > Does anyone have a good source for raw honey they are willing to pass on? > > Happy New Year! > > a > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
