Use that HoneyPot!

Are you a fan of Farmer’s markets?
If you are and they sell honey, go ahead and buy a jar or two.
Why?
It (the honey) will help you tame Spring allergies.

According to researchers, they’ve discovered that people who enjoy
birch pollen honey during birch pollen season cut their symptoms
by 55% and used half as many antihistamines as those who skipped
honey.

When bees collect nectar, their bodies get covered in pollen that ends up
in honey. And when you take a little of the nectar, it builds immunity to allergens
in your area through gradual exposure.
Add honey to tea, a bowl of millet, a fruit and veggie smoothie or a slice
of Ezekiel sprouted toast.

Another tip:
You may want to cut down on or cut out entirely junk food and processed
foods, (Little Debbie snack cakes and sugary beverages). Researchers
say oils, fats and sugars in these foods can make your allergies worse.
