6. Balance the five
elements:
Honey has been used in Ayurveda medicine in India for at least 4000 years and is considered to affect all three of the body’s primitive material imbalances positively. It is also said to be useful useful in improving eyesight, weight loss, curing impotence and premature ejaculation, urinary tract disorders, bronchial asthma, diarrhea, and nausea.

Honey is referred as “Yogavahi” since it
has a quality of penetrating the deepest tissues of the body. When honey is
used with other herbal preparations, it enhances the medicinal qualities of
those preparations and helps them to reach the deeper tissues.
7. Blood sugar
regulation: Even
though honey contains simple sugars, it is NOT the same as white sugar
or artificial sweeteners. Its exact combination of fructose and glucose
actually helps the body regulate blood sugar levels. Some honeys have a low
hypoglycemic index, so they do not jolt your blood sugar.
8. Heal wounds and
burns:
External application of honey has been shown to be as effective as conventional treatment with silver sulfadiazine. It is speculated that the drying effect of the simple sugars and honey’s anti-bacterial nature combine to create this effect.

9. Probiotic:
Some varieties of honey possess large amounts of friendly bacteria. This includes up to six species of lactobacilli and four species of bifid bacteria. This may explain many of the “mysterious therapeutic properties of honey.”

10. Beautiful skin:
Its anti-bacterial qualities are
particularly useful for the skin, and, when used with the other ingredients can
be moisturizing and nourishing! For a powerful home beauty treatment for which
you probably have all the ingredients in your kitchen already

(وأوحى ربك إلى النحل أن اتخذي من الجبال بيوتا ومن الشجر ومما يعرشون .ثم كلي من كل الثمرات فاسلكي سبل ربك ذللا يخرج من بطونها شراب مختلف ألوانه فيه شفاء للناس إن في ذلك لآية لقوم يتفكرون )
