According to Earth Clinic Home Remedies, honey can cure more than illnesses, it can cure anxiety, burns, asthma, hair loss, and even dry skin. Studies show that raw honey has remarkable antioxidant properties and is anti-irritant. Honey also helps cure a sore throat. The golden, gooey syrup is a good home remedy to inoculate against local pollens to help prevent allergies, hay fever, or cedar fever.

Honey isn’t just healthy for humans but dogs too! According to The Whole Dog Journal, when animals get sick, it is recommended that they don’t eat so their digestive organs rest and their body heals quickly. In addition to water, the only food recommended for animals at this time, is honey.

Honey never spoils. According to honeything.com, large, sealed containers of honey were found in King Tut’s tomb that were still good, despite the honey being over 2000 years old. This is because honey has very little moisture, preventing bacteria or mold to grow and reproduce.

Honey with bananas is a healthy substitute for coffee before you go on a run or wake up in the morning. Honey is also a good way to lose weight! Honey contains 22 amino acids and an abundance of minerals that are crucial for helping to prevent obesity, according to benefits-of-honey.com.
