As a beekeeper and studying herbalist I use honey for so many things. Did you know that in chinese medicine honey is an effective medicine in the treatment of heart disease? Or that LOCAL honey can help ease allergies? It has many antibiotic and antiviral properties as well.

Excellent beauty tips dear friend. We use honey for all the above mentioned beauty aids. We also use it as a medicine for reducing weight, like mixing honey with luke warm water with lime juice. For burn injuries, we apply honey as a poultice for fast healing.

Thanks vathsala for your kind response. Many are unaware of the uses of honey and just use it as a sweetener. Happy mylotting.

I couldn't agree with you more. I use honey with oatmeal as my facial scrub and yes it does great wonders on my skin. I also pat honey on my under eye circle to remove dark circles too. I just pat the honey and leave it on my under eye for 20 minutes and voila! Puffiness and dark under eye circle is reduced! I also use honey cider vinegar for my kidney problems and it does really good and alleviating my discomfort of frequent urinating!
