Product Description Too much sugar can be bad for our health. Not only can it make us overweight and sluggish, but it can also contribute to many diseases including diabetes, atherosclerosis, and vascular disease. But what can we do? Sugar is everywhere - and the simple truth is that food manufacturers are concerned more about profit than consumer health. As with most things, nature appears to have provided the solution: honey. The medicinal properties of honey have been recognized for literally hundreds of years, but until recently, they have been nothing more than folklore. However, this is beginning to change. Over the last 20-30 years, scientists have discovered that there is real truth to the belief that honey is good for your health. Honey has been revealed to have a high antioxidant content and contain a unique blend of sugars, vitamins, and other ingredients. We know now that consuming honey can offer not only sweetness, but the chance for a healthier life.

| Customer Reviews: Enhanced with the inclusion of a recipe section and a glossary February 7, 2009 Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The American population is experiencing an epidemic of obesity with its attendant health problems ranging from diabetes and atherosclerosis to vascular diseases and more. The basis of this increasing health problem is the diet many Americans exist upon which is saturated with sugars by the manufactures of processed foods and fast food restaurant menus. But there is something concerned citizens can do -- replace sucrose and sugars with honey. While the medicinal properties of honey have been known and employed for centuries, it has only been within the past few decades that nutrition scientists and others have been able to understand that the health benefits of natural honey stem from a high antioxidant content and contain a unique blend of sugars, vitamins and other ingredients that help the human body to resist illness, recover from illness, and enhance the prospect of a healthier life -- while elevating the culinary qualities of meals that are as delicious as they are nutritious. All this and more is laid out in Lynne Chepulis' new book "Healing Honey: A Natural Remedy For Better Health And Wellness", a 143-page paperback that is completely accessible to, and recommended for, the non-specialist general reader with an interest in the medicinal properties of natural honey. An ideal addition to community library Health & Medicine reference collections, "Healing Honey" also covers the use of honey for burns and wounds, and is enhanced with the inclusion of a recipe section and a glossary.
