So... can it make mead?

How do yeast do in that environment?

The only “food” science can’t copy.

I’ve always heard that bacteria won’t grow in honey. I guess the thing about this honey is it “kills” bacteria.

[Pinkbell]

Saving this.

[Bullish]

I’d like some on my waffle.... I think.

[Jonty30]

Unfortunately, it’s almost free.

Not much profit in free. :)

Manuka honey has been around for years...I used it for my sons acne..it kills staph and other skin infections.

Was this the stuff?

[Finalapproach29er]

The Bible has a verse that says:

“Eat honey, for it is good”.

I think it could be found using the right search.

I’ve wondered about this for years. Honey is the only food that doesn’t rot, ever. So it has something in it that keeps bugs away.

Humble bee spit. Sometimes the answer is right under our noses.

Kills all bacteria, eh? It should be on the menu at the White House.

“Mysterious Honey Discovered That Kills All Bacteria Scientists Throw At It.”

I have a recipe for Thanksgiving turkey that can do the same thing...

I’m still looking for that 250 year old man and when I find I’m going to ask him what he eats.

Not exactly new. The famed Roman physician, Galen, was known to use honey as an antibiotic in wounds. He didn’t know -why- it worked yet, but he knew it worked. Honey kept even serious cuts from becoming infected.

[Smokin' Joe]

IIRC, Jim Rob had some bandages which were treated with honey used on his leg, with some success.

Tea Tree oil is supposed to be an antibiotic/anti fungal/antiviral as well (topical use only--not to be taken internally). Maybe the bees are picking something up from the tea trees, too.

I put Manuka on my Dad’s Cheerios. It is his part of his daily diabetic evening meal. We also luv the benefits of Silver Sol (liquid and gel). Excellent for wounds not to mention a myriad of other ailments.
