honey + wellness

I never realized how much I relied on Honey until recently. I use it in so many different ways - from cooking and baking to juice and herbal tea, to making homemade skin products and even home remedies for my allergies. As someone who's conscious about consuming things positive for my health, I've been trying to make better choices when it comes to the ingredients in my pantry and Honey is no exception.

One thing I've learned is that not all Honey is created equal. Last year, I started to eliminate processed foods from my diet, and that's when I started to research the differences between store-bought Honey and Local Raw Honey.

Local Raw Honey is taken directly from the Bee Hive without any processing or pasteurization, so it retains all of the natural enzymes and nutrients that are good for our health. On the other hand, store-bought Honey is often processed and refined, which can remove some of the beneficial components and even adds ingredients like sugar and syrup. I've also discovered that Local Raw Honey can help with seasonal allergies since it often contains small amounts of pollen from local plants. Remember a few weeks ago when I was struggling with spring allergies? I took a couple of teaspoons of Local Raw Honey that I bought from a local Bee Keeper, and it cleared up my symptoms the same day! No cap.

I've also been using local raw Honey in combination with other ingredients for my skincare routine, and it works well for hydration and cleansing Honey is widely used in the skincare industry for moisture retention, reducing the signs of aging, and even treatment of acne, eczema, and psoriasis.

Not only is Local Raw Honey better for our health, but it also supports sustainability by reducing our carbon footprint and supporting local businesses within our community. I highly recommend checking out your local farmers market or grocery stores like Publix, that supports local growers and producers, to find small batches of Local Raw Honey and other products that are good for you and the environment.
