Trending Spotlight:
Raw and local honey
Honey was a hit in three of the five regions this month. Eisele’s Raw Honey is trending in the Midwest, while local honey is driving sales in the West and Southeast. Local honey is often recommended as an allergy fighter. The reason: It is said to help build a tolerance to local pollen. In a study published in International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, researchers found that subjects who took honey had a 60% lower symptom score. In Top 9 Natural Allergy Relief Home Remedies, Josh Axe, DC, DNM, CN, says taking a tablespoon a day could provide some relief. Local honey is said to provide immune system support as well. And according to Penn Medicine, honey has natural antibacterial properties, offers pain relief, works to reduce inflammation, and can also act as a cough suppressant.
