HONEY

//HONEY// Neutal in temperature and sweet to the tongue, honey acts on the LUNG, SPLEEN and LARGE INTESTINE. It detoxifies the body, lubricates dryness and relieves pain.


//ALLEVIATES ALLERGIES// A common theory is that honey acts like a natural vaccine. It contains small amounts of pollen, which if the body is exposed to small amounts of it, it can trigger an immune response that produces antibodies to the pollen. After repeated exposure, you should build up these antibodies and the body should become accustomed to their presence so that less histamine is released, resulting in a lesser allergic response. If using honey in this manner, its important to consume local raw honey to your area so that you are exposed to the local pollen.
