All About Honey

[sonia62]

^ ako naman hindi ako drinker ng synthetic drugs. Kahit may lagnat, ubo, sipon kami ni hubby noon hindi kami umiinom ng gamot. I think hindi naman sa hindi nagwowork siguro, maaring dahil sa mas maraming toxin ang katawan ng ibang tao, mas matagal bago makita effect kasi syempre kailangan maalis muna ang toxins na yun. Pero siguro over time and with continuous use, dun makikita yung effect

^sis ano effect sayo ng royal jelly. sabi kasi puwede raw ihalo sa honey. delays aging ba talaga? hehe.

[sonia62]

^ naku sis di pa kami ganun katagal nagtetake ng royal jelly kaya di ko pa masabi. Ang napansin namin ni hubby malalim tulog namin pag nagtetake kami nito. Pure namin sya tinetake. Ang nakalagay sa instruction melt under the tongue

Have sore throat now. Biglang naisip ko mag honey but I think what we have is not pure.
Will go out to buy CEM honey. Pwede na kaya sa three year old ang honey?

[blahblahblahxx]

Mga sis san kaya pwede bumili raw/organic honey?

I'm glad to have stumbled upon this thread.

I bought a jar (Ginebra) of honey from Benguet Trading Post around P400-500 ata way back in 2004. I remember nag-crystallize mga siya. Unfortunately di ko nasulit inumin/gamitin and I just threw it away around 2008.

I have been looking where to buy honey and I will check Healthy Options, I inquired sa FB page nila, meron daw. I just bought a small jar from SM grocery and I find it too sweet, marami atang sugar.

How about sa mga fruit stands lining up Tagaytay, may pure honey kaya silang tinda?

Sa south you can buy in tagaytay, at ilog maria bee farm. Pag nagagawi ako dun, dun ako bumibili. 350 ata if i remember it right. If not naman, sa Greens Vegetarian Restaurant in QC meron sila nung Tobee's Apiary Honey 275. You can google Tobee's Apiary may mga phone numbers dun para makapaginquire kayo kung saan pa sila available. Mahal kasi sa healthy options eh. when buying honey make sure that it is raw. Yung mga nabibili sa supermarket na honey like yung Sue Bee na brand ba yun and the likes are not raw. Usually they are heated or pressurized, etc

about to get CEM kahapon sa supermarket...sabi nung salesclerk dun, mas mabili daw yung pure honey bee, nakalagay sa packaging niya from Palawan....P98.00 lang....i don't know kung totoo nga un.....

[hanshellite]

Bought honey sa market market. Sa isang bote ng tanduay sya nakalagay, cost is P75 lang. Now ko lang nabasa yung mga signs to test the purity of the honey. Itry ko mamaya sa nabili kong honey. Super mura kasi...

[domestic diva]

I bought CEM wild honey and it worked on my sore throat and cough!
Tsaka hindi nilanggam

[hanshellite]

Yung nabili kong honey sa market market na walang brand, "Pure Wild Honey" lang ang nakalagay, tinest ko kagabi to know if its actually pure or not. Nagliyab naman yung kandila when I lit it up, pero may crackling sound. I wonder what that means. I dropped a small amount sa isang piece of cloth, hindi naman sya kumalat, but when I washed it off, may konting trace ng honey sa cloth.

Hmmm, di ko ma-conclude if its really pure or not. Inamoy ko sya, amoy sugar. Don't know. Check ko mamaya if nilanggam ba sya. Iniwan ko kasi yung jar sa table na may mga stains ng honey sa bottle.

I am really depressed and dissapointed after finding out that the honey i bought (expensive one)frim milea archard and bee farm) failed some of the purity tests that i made. Hindi siya pumasa sa water sinking test and sa cotton burning test. pero pumasa siya sa hot water test and teary eyes test. Its not think and its runny, so i think it is because of its viscosity? i really do not know. it taste sour has sugar taste a little but mainly sour and smells sour same with the honey i will describe below.


on the other hand, i also bought one honey from our mall here in our place (not on the grocery store but from the small stall selling organic B'laan products. It all passed the tests that i had, its thick and stung my eyes. but it taste so sweet like mascovado sugar but smells sour (maaisim na parang matagal na na coconut water na going to vinegar). This one is less expensive



please help me. both had the same color but milea is not thick. Thanks for those who will help.

My parents bought three bottles of wild honey kahapon dun sa naglalako sa pinuntahan nilang nearby province.  Nakapanood ba kayo ng documentary ni kara david about sa nagsspot ng pulot pukyutan? Sa ganon nila binili. May kasama pang one cup ng honeycomb. Ewan ko lang kung ano gagawin don. Back to the honey, ang pangit ng bottles, ketchup bottles e. hehe! Scout ako later ng cute na honey container.

I bought bee propolis from Ilog Maria when we went to Tagaytay last Holy Week.  My son and I take it every morning before breakfast.  Nagkasipon ako recently, I took it 3 times a day.... may improvement agad... hindi na barado ilong ko tuwing gabi...   

First time to buy the propolis. Ang mahal kasi... I was supposed to buy the honey, pero dumagsa mga bakasionista at dami pumakyaw ng propolis... naintriga ako. hehe...

Before, ang binibili ko is Sue Bee, pero dami nagsasabi not pure.  Madalas magkasipon ubo anak ko... Try ko ito propolis, kahit mahal kesa OTC medicines.

My dad used to have bees at home.  So we were used to having pure honey.  Unfortunately all his queen bees died due to a strong typhoon.  The winds swept the bee hives from the rooftop of our house.  Honey is my sugar replacement so when that happened, I tried to buy honey at BSU, La trinidad, Benguet for I thought it is pure but nope, since I can taste the sugar.  Then again I tried to buy at the grocery pero still matamis, lasang asukal.  Good thing, I cam across one of my high school classmates and he's into producing honey.  It's from him where I order pure honey. I ordered 4 bottles from him last month and 1 of the 4 bottles came from wild bees while the other 3 are from cultured bees that feed on sunflowers mostly.

Honey, aside from being my sugar replacement is also my and my son's cough/colds medicine.  I add a teaspoon of honey to a lemon juice then we drink it and it's very effective.

I love honey! Works wonders for me. I usually take it in the morning as a sweetener for my calamansi juice.  BTW, I get mine from Ilog Maria.

Can anyone recommend a good brand for cooking? I'm not a good cook so I always follow recipes I get from the internet. Yung iba that I've tried requires honey so I bough from the supermarket. Weird ng lasa and I'm quite sure dahil sa honey Dapat ba pure honey ang gamit ko for cooking? Mura lang kasi yung nabili kong honey eh. TIA!!

[em_cee]

ok ba CEM honey?  parang ang tamis, tama ba yun lasa?  masakit sa lalamunan yun tamis... di kaya sugar lang ito?

[realshaddy]

Any updates kung saan nakakabili ng pure honey? I used to buy in Baguio pero di na kase ako nakakapunta dun
