Caution: Royal Jelly And Asthma

Worker bees produce a substance called royal jelly to nurture the larvae selected to become queens. There has been claims for royal jelly's health benefits, but so far, there is no evidence that it provides worthwhile nutrients for humans.

Several scientific journals have reported grave asthma attacks, including fatalities, in adults and children taking royal jelly supplements.
So, do not take royal jelly if you have allergies or asthma.

Feeling under the weather?

Throat sore or scratchy - try sipping some hot green tea with a spoonful of honey and a pinch of red pepper. This mix can soothe an inflamed throat. Red pepper subdues one of the body's pain chemicals, so that you can swallow more comfortably.

Choose Your Honey!

Honey is heat treated unless the label on a jar of honey states that it is cold-pressed, unfiltered, or raw. The least treated honey is honeycomb. Honey remains liquid or soft longer at room temperature. It keeps indefinitely and there is no need to chill it.
