My favorite is pouring Kefir over frozen blueberries.
Not The Bee?
We are starting to make smoothies in the morning.
“alfalfa, buckwheat, clover, and orange blossom honeys”
WHAT? They didn’t include the famous New Zealand Manuka Honey? It’s supposed to be one of those “wonder foods.”
in the mid east yogurt and honey are NEVER mixed. theres this weird theory that yogurt is a “cold” food - - very little protein and honey is a “ hot” food— lots of protein. I have no idea where this theory comes from but it made sense over there.
What’s for breakfast?
Nut ‘n Honey!
Chris Rock had a funny variation of that commercial....

I’m sure I have a fatty liver so I’m trying to do intermittent fasting, eliminate most added sugars and seed oils, drastically reduce my carbs, ingest probiotics like yogurt and soluble fiber.
All in an effort to really reduce inflammation and insulin resistance and increased good gut bacteria.
Also starting to include Hawthorn Berberine and K2/D3, natto.
My bees eat yogurt.
This is kinda funny. I like to buy plain, unsweetened yogurt and then sweeten it with honey. Who knew that was healthy?!
I sprinkle little bit of honey on cottage cheese, whole milk yogurt (I eat every day), whole wheat toast, hot tea, etc. Have been doing it for many years.
I do it only because I like taste of clover honey. Doing well at age 84. No medical bills!
I’ve heard that eating raw honey can help prevent pollen allergies - at first glance it makes a kind of sense because raw honey might contain pollen, perhaps processed to some extent by the bees, and maybe ingesting it could build immunity to the kind of reactions some of us get to pollen. But I have no idea if there’s any truth to it.
Pooh Bear agrees.
I have heard Honey is also good to apply to cuts and scrapes. I have never tried this personally. I like honey too much to waste on cuts and scrapes. I use drops of hydrogen peroxide on a piece of cotton, cover up cuts or ant bites and top off with a band-aid to keep the cotton in place. Very effective with fire ant bites which are numerous in my yard.
Make sure that when you buy honey, you are supporting your local beekeeper.
If not, you will be eating bunk dumpster honey.
Been adding honey to homemade yogurt since I was a kid...many, many moons ago.
The homemade yogurt my mom made didn’t have any of the tartness I find in store bought yogurts except for an Armenian brand...Karouns whole milk Mediterranean style yogurt..
Greek yogurt is just yogurt with some watery whey strained out, still a bit too tart, in my opinion.
This is the yogurt we make and enjoy, daily ...

It's got to be raw honey though. Most supermarket brands are trash. Best get your honey from a local farm if you can.
I prefer the honeycomb however. The wax in honeycomb is very edible and nutritious. My favorite source of honeycome is from the Savannah Bee Company. A little pricey but the food of the gods.
These articles are SOOOO stupid! How does a higher percentage of a bacteria surviving ingestion equal better health? What makes “Bifidobacterium animalis” a good bacteria, and does the honey also increase harmful bacteria surviving?
Oh wait: “The research was supported by the National Honey Board.” Sigh.
Real men prefer Kimchi to improve their gut health.
