Who doesn't know the virtues of honey, rich in flavonoids, natural antioxidants that act against skin aging. Honey also contains mineral salts and trace elements, very effective in strengthening the immunity of skin tissues. In the past, honey was used as a powerful antibacterial, particularly for the treatment of infections caused by poorly treated wounds. Honey is therefore healing, it also strengthens cartilage and fortifies nails thanks to its high calcium content. A scalp massage was recommended to hydrate the hair follicle and make hair silky. In short, honey was used as a balm, applied as a poultice on the sternum to decongest. Honey, a panacea? No, but a perfect alchemy of the mixture of numerous flowers, an alchemy performed by these unusual social hymenoptera: bees.
