Allergies caused by airborne pollen can be a nighmare for those of us who want to enjoy the flowering months.
Most hay fever allergies are caused by an abundance of airborne pollen mostly from grasses and trees. These minscule grains also drift into the flowers of other plants of which bees gather pollen and nectar from to make their honey.
The minute pollen traces contained in the honey pass through the gut wall and then enter the blood stream. Here they come in contact with cells that form antibodies. By continually exposing the body to minute doses, the body has a chance to build an immunity to the allergen. Natures way of micro dosing.
A study conducted in Britain by Dr Coft found 76% participants reported improvement due to the honey consumption and some found after consuming honey for a prolonged period needed “no medication for hay fever was needed (as) in previous years”.
We recommend locally produced raw honey - This honey likely contains minute traces of the specific allergens that are effecting you.
For an extra boost
- Research also has found by chewing the comb wax is particulary benefical as this contains higher amounts of pollen residue.
