What can Honey do for you?


With the chilly weather and the winter colds, honey can be a great option to help soothe a scratchy throat and also to build your immune system.

If you are heading to workout, have some honey. It helps control blood sugar which keeps you performing at an optimal level in your workout routine.

 If you are looking for an antioxidant boost, add a little honey to your tea, or mix it with peanut butter to sweeten the flavor. 

If you are battling high cholesterol, replace sugar with honey and it may help to lower the bad cholesterol.

If you want to improve your G.I. Health, add honey to increase the immune-boosting bacteria. Keep this in mind if you have to take an antibiotic. Yogurt is a great source of probiotics. Add a little honey on top to build a healthy intestinal track.

As always, try to buy honey from your local area!
