I have always used honey to treat burns,cuts, and other ailments. It's fab, I bought a jar of Manuka honey and believe me it's not cheap. £12 a jar.....
I have some put back in my preps Smile
After I got the snip, My stitches caused an infection so I slapped on some honey, Infection cleared thee next day, Antibiotics would have taken days!
You have to use decent honey though, not Tesco £1.50 stuff Smile

I love honey for cuts and scraps. One drop, piece of micro-pore on top and leave for 24 hours.
Cured an ulcer on my leg in weeks after 6 years of failures by the NHS.
Good enough bug killer in the Napoleon wars and still works now.
Nature at it's very best.

I heard honey will last forever? Keep the lid on tight and keep it somewhere dark and cool....

In the text I read back in the 70's it said that honey worked two ways.
The sugar content was too concentrated for bugs to grow in and also the chemical make up of the stuff helped new skin growth. No mention use by dates.
Heck I never even refrigerated my stuff just got a good grade of pure honey.

I also used pure cocoa butter on scar tissue.
Again an old recipe that helped scar recession.
The wife uses to on her hands as a treatment for arthritis and eczema.
Diabetics use to keep their feet 'pliable' too.

I love all these natural remedies.

cocoa butter is an absolute wonder!
my mum got me into it, but as you say really does wonders for your skin, scars, calloused parts.

altough i hardly ever use it anymoreTongue
