Honey

Medicinal Use
Honey is an amazing product for all sorts of ailments. Honey is basically nature’s antibiotic. You can apply it raw, make a salve combined with herbs or plants, or eat it raw. If possible, buy it from a local beekeeper. Not only does it save on transport costs, you support local businesses, it’s better for the environment, bees, and you!

(The healing ability of honey will be greatly reduced if heated over 37°C / 98.6°F. Make sure you store honey in a dark and dry place. Preferably in room temperature)

How to apply With uninfected surface wounds: Apply a thick layer of honey, then add a band-aid or bandage depending on the size of the wound. Check at least 3 times a day.

Clean with a gentle stream of water and a soft, disinfected wash cloth before applying a new bandage and/or honey. Don’t apply honey and bandages 24/7.
