Honeycomb Health! Did You Know?

Did you know that Honeycomb is even mentioned in the bible? Proverbs 16:24 Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
Chewing Honeycomb
An old Vermont remedy suggests that regularly chewing honeycomb during allergy season will alleviate sneezing, runny nose and watery eyes. Chew the honeycomb for as long as possible; after 30 minutes, allergy symptoms could disappear. Start chewing honeycomb a week or two before allergy season to keep allergy problems from starting.
Honey Comb has many uses. These include use as a spread on toast or bread, a snack on its own, in cooking, crushed over breakfast fruits such as kiwifruit, grapefruit etc. or as a gourmet treat. When used as a spread, the comb is eaten along with the bread and almost passes unnoticed, but has a certain delicate flavour of its own. The wax comb is perfectly edible.

Sealed in the Honey Comb by the bees, Honey Comb has better retention of flavour and aroma to that of extracted and processed honeys. The fresh bouquet is sealed in. Many mono floral honey types exhibit their best characteristics in Honey Comb form - a unique gourmet treat.

Honey straight from the honeycomb has all the main amino acids and necessary B, C, D and E vitamins. Honey also packs a punch of powerful and essential enzymes.

The purest honey is from the honeycomb. Its ingredients include water, pollen, fructose, glucose, organic acids, proteins and enzymes.
