[QUOTE="Harbourmaster, post: 529517, member: 14207"] Good to hear your on the mend GH. Honey is an effective agent to tread many bites and stings, Ulcers,burns and the list goes on there is plenty of research done and being done on the use of honey & bee products world wide. I have heard Dr Shona Blair speak at beekeeping conferences about the use of honey for medicinal use. She is at the Sydney university. Quote "doctors use honey as a last resort instead of a first resort". A tube of Medi honey is about $6.00 from chemist or at least it used to be. NZ manuka is rated on the activity scale, highest I've heard of is 31, heard a rumour we have a tree in this country which has hit 50-55 not related to leptospermum scoparium (Manuka) these honey's will kill Staphloccoci and I believe there is only one antibiotic left to treat it with. unfortunately much will have been lost in the fires. I may have retired a bit early from beekeeping Some reading available at Oz Honey Project. Cheers Mate [/QUOTE]
