Don’t Limit Your Use of Raw Honey to Just Adding to Food Recipes

While adding a touch of honey to your morning coffee or using it in your dinner recipe can add an unmistakable flavor, you don’t have to limit your use of raw honey for eating. For hundreds of years, people have been using honey for purposes like medicinal, restorative, and enhancing beauty. Consider raw honey for your next do-it-yourself project.

Some of the most popular uses for honey include:

• Skin Restoration: The beauty industry is worth billions of dollars and many facial products can cost you well into the hundreds of dollars. Honey is an antioxidant, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory so applying it as a face mask will improve the look of your face.
• Exfoliation: If you want to scrub dead skin off of your arms, legs, and face, adding some sugar or coffee beans to raw honey will exfoliate your body.
• Soften Skin: Everyone has troublesome areas like their elbows or knees that never seem to get soft. Applying raw honey and letting it sit for up to 30 minutes will soften your skin.
• Add Moisture and Shine to Hair: With all of the chemical processes people use on their hair, there is more dry hair and it easily loses shine after a few days of heat and wear. Adding a teaspoon of raw honey to your shampoo bottle will increase your hair’s shine. You can also use it for deep conditioning by combining honey with olive oil and letting it rest on your hair for 20 minutes.
• Treat Coughs: If you have a pesky cough, use honey as a cough syrup to cool your throat and potentially decrease the severity of your cough. It will naturally suppress your cough.
• Heal Wounds: There have been studies concerning raw honey as a treatment for minor cuts because it actually moisturizes your skin and helps sterilize the area. We only recommend using it for minor cuts and in a thin layer.

Consider using raw honey for various uses other than just in your favorite recipes. When you open your mind to using honey regularly, you may be shocked at the potential uses you may find for it.
