What can honey do for us? 🍯🐝
From the Eastern medicine perspectives, natural quality honey gives you an energy and immunity boost that lasts longer than a simple sugar rush (and less the sugar crash)
Honey from local farm carries components of local pollens,
which means if you have seasonal allergies, it is a yummy option to boost your immune system for seasonal changes.
Honey with ginger and lemon is also a great remedy for those days that you feel weaker or under the weather. It’s also a great morning or evening drink to substitute your coffees.
Honey can also be incorporated into your beauty regiment. As honey has antibacterial, moisturizing and energy boosting properties, combining with other skin “food” (I.e lemon, yogurt, ground black sesame, egg) or on it’s own makes an excellent, cost effective and natural mask that leaves your skin rejuvenated and moisturized.
Honey is also a great substitute for refined sugar and simple syrup, it adds a dimension of flavours to your treats! 🥞
Honey can also be used as a binding agent for herbal pills to make herbal remedies 100% natural and convenient for intake.
Do be mindful of allergies to honey and over-indulgence, as too much of anything can cause imbalance in your body.
Overall, honey is a great staple to your pantry and substitute for other refined products!
