I don’t think that there are that many people who would go into shock from a honeybee sting. If there were, the Pentagon would be looking at it.

It's not the first sting that'll kill you, but the hundred that follow.

Define honey.
Ground bees produce a honey which feeds the larvae. Ground bees also sting, leaves a pheromone for a hundred follow up attacks, and people do die as a result.

Seriously?

How about 25 to 50 bees. You say honey as if there is only 1 type of honey. Ground bees produce a honey to feed the larvae, and they are ferocious defenders of the hive. African bees are honey producers also.

Fire ants can kill
Spiders can kill

The body produces histamine to counteract allergic reactions.

Which means that people have more allergic reactions to more things than you can imagine but your histamine production allows you to live a semblance of a normal life amongst all the toxins out there.

However, your body can produce an overabundance of histamines which is not healthy either. And people can and do die as a result of that.

It’s like shellfish... everybody is allergic to shellfish and it’s really just a matter of when your body can no longer tolerate iodine that you become allergic to shellfish, which have naturally high iodine percentages.

Histamine intolerance is not a sensitivity to histamine, but an indication that you’ve developed too much of it.
