Our 100% Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM is our reason to bee

We have created a unique combination of medicinal honeys that have been clinically shown to heal and nourish the skin. Truly a miraculous substance, the power of honey goes beyond time and space. Used since ancient times for its healing properties, it is also being used today as therapy for hard to treat skin ailments at burn and wound clinics around the world, as well as for its anti aging properties.

HONEY HISTORY

Going way back in history, the first civilizations evolved in Sumer and Babylon, where honey was considered a prized commodity for trade. In fact, the first written prescription ever is found on a Sumerian clay tablet giving instructions for treating a wound with honey. Cleopatra, the last Pharaoh of Egypt, who was known throughout the world for her splendid beauty, used honey in her daily rituals. Her famous milk and honey baths are known to all. The Ebers papyrus (1550 BC) lists 147 honey applications, several of which are cosmetic preparations that Cleopatra used frequently.

Hippocrates (430 BC), the father of Western medicine, utilized honey in the majority of his treatments. His work can be considered a bridge between using honey then because it worked, and using it today because we have a greater understanding of how it works. During his time, Hippocrates experimented with two different honey mixtures, he sometimes added vinegar to the honey and sometimes he added water. When treating wounds he knew that the honey/water mixture worked best, though he probably did not know why.

ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE...MODERN SKIN CARE

Today we understand better the honey-healing-process because of the latest clinical research. Scientific studies have revealed how honey heals burns and wounds. Glucose oxidase, a substance found in some honeys, is responsible for the healing effect witnessed by Hippocrates. When water is combined with honey, hydrogen peroxide, a powerful antibiotic, is released. Unlike the very strong hydrogen peroxide that is purchased in a pharmacy, the hydrogen peroxide in honey works in an almost magical way. It is released in small amounts over time so that the antibiotic effect on the skin works slowly and very gently. Peroxide stimulates white blood cells, thus helping to strengthen the immune response to possible infection thereby reducing blemishes and unsightly pimples.

OUR HONEY IS ANTI-AGING

Practically a "fountain of youth", honey has amazing properties. Wound care studies have also demonstrated that certain honeys stimulate collagen production, very important in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. Known also for strong anti-oxidant properties, honey is a free-radical scavenger. Honey neutralizes damaging free radicals at the molecular level.

CREATING THE PERFECT BLEND

Because it is soothing, nurturing, moisturizing and anti-aging, you will want to make our Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM part of your daily routine. We have created a unique combination of honeys from around the globe that are known to be highly medicinal and healing. We have selected honeys known to have unique qualities. Bee-Ceuticals Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM is by far the most effective, luscious and nutrient dense honey available for skin care. It allows the skin to absorb as many as 60 of the nutrients present in the honey as well as over 25 minerals, 22 amino acids, enzymes, co-enzymes, anti-oxidants, bio-flavonoids, and other known curative factors as skin is moisturized, toned and revitalized. By itself, a particular honey may be high in antioxidant content, but low in antibacterial activity; another high in antibacterial activity but of low ph (ph helps protect the skin's natural acid mantle). Our Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM combines the best of each organic honey that is known for its unique beneficial features. We have created a super combination of honeys that is raw, unfiltered and never heated to above hive temperature.

WE TAKE A HOLISTIC VIEW OF HONEY

Many companies use powdered honey in their preparations because it is easy to use and cheaper. Dried honey provides very little benefit to the skin as it has been robbed of its valuable properties. We take a holistic approach, believing that each and every aspect of honey is precious and should be utilized whole and unprocessed. This ensures that each of the therapeutic properties of our miraculous honey is bio-available for your skin.

Our Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM also acts as a carrier for our other organic extracts and ingredients. Most other products use oil as the carrier. In this case, other ingredients just sit on top of this heavy oil and never provide any benefits. In a water based product, the extracts dry out too quickly to provide any real results. Our Organic Holistic Honey Blend^TM, however, actually holds our beneficial ingredients against the skin so they can act upon your skin cells as they provide great benefits.
