Benefits of Honey

Why honey?

The sticky sweet stuff of bees isn't just something to add a little flavor to your tea-- it's nature's very own elixir for a much healthier life-- one that you and I undoubtedly do not have. So, the next time you decide to swat a bee, take some time to appreciate the little stinger and all its hard work!

1. Honey can make you younger! Or at least look it.

If a trip to Belo is out of the question, then honey is your answer! Why botox the wrinkles out of your face when a little honey can do the trick? Honey contains antioxidants, which basically reverse aging by neutralizing the free radicals our body releases during oxidation.

If that's too complicated, think of it this way: free radicals can damage our body, but honey and its antioxidants clean up all these icky radicals, and heal the body in so many ways. The darker the honey, the more antioxidants it contains.

2. Honey can make you sexy

Honey is goes down easily, and for people with digestive problems, this is one medicine you definitely won't mind having spoonfulls of! Although it contains more calories than table sugar, it eases the digestive system by breaking down energy calories faster-- so, you get twice the amount of energy, and twice the amount of power to burn it all out!

Diarrhea and stomach flu are common ailments, and honey's antibacterial and moisture-retaining properties help flush out all the bad stuff that's been plaguing you.

3. Honey makes your immune system mighty


Honey is a natural Red Bull, and asides from providing energy when you need it most, it also helps strengthen the immune system by shielding it against bacteria that can cause colds and flu. Cought and sore throats can also be easily cured with some warm honey and calamansi or lemon, because its antimicrobial properties kill the germs breeding in your mouth while soothing the irritated area at the same time.

4. Honey is nature's bandaid


Honey is a natural antiseptic. Looking for that tiny green bottle of Betadine? Forget it! Apply a little warm honey on a cut, wound, or burn and the antimicrobial agents in it will prevent infections and promote skin growth. Bacteria doesn't survive in honey, so you'll be far away from gangrene if you've got a little pot of the sweet stuff lying around!

5. Honey makes your skin glow and your hair shine


Honey has the incredible ability of trapping in moisture, one thing we definitely need if dull hair and skin are a problem! Asides from healing the body from the inside, the moisture that honey attracts feeds our skin cells and promotes tissue growth. Using it as a facial mask or a hair conditioner is like providing yourself with a boost of nutrients that can help restore and heal drying areas. A little honey every day will make you bloom in no time!

Quote Bank 01

"Prayer is important for it:
quiets the heart, clears the vision, strengthens faith and makes things happen"~


God has arranged events and placed people in our lives for a reason.
In the same way, we have been appointed to be part of someones's life for a reason as well.
Let's make that reason count because for every life we touch, we are gaining treasures for our own."~


"God's richest blessings,
truest joy,
constant love,
tender guidance,
calming peace and
enriching presence
be yours today and always."~


"Prayer is when you talk to God,
Meditation is when you listen to God,
Contemplation is when you are intimate with God.
Take time for Him who loved us first."~


When we live according to the standards of the world:
Success. Money. power. Beauty and Prestige.
We live in fear for all these can be lost.
But
To live in faith with a peaceful heart is much more than them."~


The tongue weighs practically nothing, but few can hold it.
Remember:
Kind words make good echoes.
Sweet words leaves sweet thought."~


"-- A tree that has deep roots can survive every storm.
A person who has deep faith in God can survive any problem that may come along the way."~


"To fail means you've tried.
To hurt means you've loved. and
To survived means you've learned.
All is meant to be well in the end."~


As we breath right now... others take their last. So appreciate your life.
Never mind what you don't have, start living for what you have.
Let's thank god for entrusting another day to our borrowed life.
Indeed, there's so much to be thankful for today."~


"It is when our hearts continue to burn with love that others are saved from dying of the cold."~


"Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when ther's nothing left to take away.
Perfection lies not in impeccability but in surrender to the Mercy of God."~


"Wisdom is oftentimes acquired when we stumble, not when we succeed.
Our defeats leave us wiser than our triumph,
By faith we live,
By love we serve,
By patience we understand,
By trials we gain wisdom,
By sharing we give joy."~


"The world may define surrender as losing bu God defines surrender as victory.
It is only when we surrender our problems, worries and doubts to God
That we allow and give him the power to intervene."~
