Propolis The natural antibiotic

Propolis is yet another nutrient, and is hailed as a natural antibiotic. Propolis is a resinous substance collected by bees from plants and trees, it is mostly resins, balsams and waxes, and partly of pollen and essential oils, which are mixed by the bees salivary glands and used in the construction of the hive. It has been used thoughout history for a wide range of conditions.
Propolis contains a great variety of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and bioflavonoids. The Greeks used to use it to treat wounds. During the past twenty years, scientific studies have rediscovered Propolis and found it to be a great booster of the immune system, enhancing the immune response and resisitance against disease.
A recent study at Oxford University has revealed that Propolis can help to cure inflammatiions, while a Chinese research has found Propolis effective in treating hypertension and arteriosclerosis, and Soviet scientist's have shown that Propolis can prevent ulcers.
It is now used for a wide range of conditions such as colds, sore throats, coughs, allergies, vaginal infections, acne, and herpes. I have been asked if it would cure a chest infection, but I am sorry I have no idea.

Boost your immune system this winter

 With winter coming it may be a good idea to boost your immune system. One of the best ways is to use Manuka honey. Manuka honey is made in New zealand, and is full of natural goodness that will protect your body and boost your immune system. It can also be used as a natural antibiotic and is better than conventional antibiotics.


How to use Manuka honey. Remember you are using this honey as a natural medicine. Take 1 5mg spoon of the honey twice or three times a day but not at meal times. Allow 1 hour either side of eating or drinking to get the best results from Manuku.
I would be very interested on your comments, if you have used the Honey. As we don't get much sun this time of year it would be very good to supplement your diet with a vitamin D3, available at good health food stores. And remember wash your hands. Ha Ha!
