I love honey, so I insist on the best. We buy local honey (made by Texas bees in Weatherford, Texas!) at the farmer’s market around the corner from our house. It’s packed in a mason-type jar with a label that was printed on a desktop printer, and it still has the comb in it.
Local honey is said to have properties beneficial to those who suffer from seasonal pollen allergies, as I do.
I asked my allergist if there was any truth to the claim that honey helped with allergies and he said yes.
I was more than a little surprised, coming from a medical professional.
He said it’s not as good as allergy shots, but for some people, it can help.
It helped mr. mm. He had such bad reactions to the shots that he had to quit them. Once we started eating local honey, his allergies improved DRAMATICALLY.
