All sugars are are a vehicle for yeast. They feed off sugars of all types -

even fructose.

Dan,

I get a bit of redness and bumps with honey. Sugar is ok for me,

though.

I don't know if it's yeast in honey that causes the problems. Honey

seems acidic and I have problems with citrus and vinegar, too.

P.S. Maple syrup is ok for me too. HOney seems to be the only

sweetener that causes problems. I really think the problem is its

acidity.

Any sugars bother me. I can have a little, but if I go overboard I wake

up the next morning with bumps and itching. Its always the next

morning.

You may be reacting to the honey since it comes from pollen. If you

have allergies it will cause problems for you...it does for me.

Hi all! In regards to honey. I just recently had a cold (actually I still

do) but for the cough I was taking honey by the teaspoonful atleast 3 times

a day. My face looks great! It looked good before I got sick and didn't

change at all. Metrogel and Cetaphil Cleansing lotion seemed to be all I

needed to get my cea under control. Here's to a good skin day!

I've heard that before but I've never tried it! I wonder if it would

decrease my hayfever symptoms?

Actually, if you eat (use?) dark local honey it will help you build up

immunity to whatever is in the air that is causing an allergic reaction. I

had friends who kept bees and learned this from them.

This is a repeat for one of our members but here is what little I know.

This info is from some friends from way back who had bees..... Light honey

is from clover. After all the clover is gone, the bees get pollen from

whatever is blooming - stuff like ragweed (only one I can think of) that is

blowing around in the air and causes allergies. With this pollen, the bees

produce dark honey. If you get local dark honey, it will be made from

whatever is flying around in the air in your area. I get it from the

neighborhood health food store - check the label. I'd be willing to bet it

would help allergies - that's what they told me. Fortunately that's one

problem I don't have. Another tip they gave me is that if you combine 2 tsp

of honey and 2 tsp of apple cider vinegar in a small juice glass of warm

water (to dissolve the honey) and add ice cubes it will help arthritis and

also act as a diuretic. Tastes like apple juice.

Internal yeast is not a problem for me, but I still react to honey.

Maple syrup and other sugar (corn syrup, fruit sweeteners, cane sugar)

are all ok.
