Did you know honey never spoils? Archaeologists have found 3,000-year-old jars of honey in Egyptian tombs that are still perfectly edible, and that’s just the beginning of honey’s healing power. From fighting infections and easing allergies to balancing blood sugar and promoting longevity, honey and other bee products are some of nature’s most remarkable medicines. In this episode, Dr. Axe explores the science behind raw, Manuka, and medicinal honeys, and how bee products like royal jelly, propolis, and bee pollen can help you build stronger immunity, heal naturally, and even support a longer life.
