Local Honey

[Kettle]

Anyone use it for help with their sinus and allergy problems? I've been using it a few weeks now, and I'm not so sure its doing anything. Just curious if anyone feels it makes a significant difference.

My girlfriend thinks it helps her. I've talked to a few people that say you need to consume pretty high quantities (a few tbsps per day) to make a difference.

i've been doing a teaspoon a day in my coffee. before doing that i had sneeze attacks (about 10 or 15) every morning. now it happens only a couple times a week. i guess maybe i should up the amount. stuff is so sweet though, and i'm not that big on sugary stuff. except chocolate.

I have been doing this for about two years now. Seems to work good. I put about 2 tsps in my cereal in the morning. I haven't had a sinus drainage since I started (used to get the drainage at least once a year). I also hear that honey is good for the liver.

I thought this was gonna be a thread about some sexy chick that lives close to you...

how very disappointing.

Never heard of this, but I love honey....

as a side note KK, you know not to give honey to infants right? A lot of people don't... honey contains botulism toxins that newborns are not immune to.

the Klong princess gets nothing but boobie juice right now.

and you've never heard of it helping? supposedly the fact that the honey is made with the pollen that affects you directly helps your immune system fight off allergy attacks. or something like that.

The closer to home the honey is the better it is for you.

I have a man I get honey from for $2 a pint & his hive is about 1/2 mile from my house. It's likely his bees have been pollinating my garden. :D

closest i've found is at the farmer's market in downtown wilmington on saturday morning. its $6.75 a pound. i'm definitely keeping my eye out for another source.

I see how that can work... I took allergy shots for several years and they helped me a lot.
