- Sidr Honey of Wadi Daw’an from Yemen
- Manuka Honey from New Zealand
- Beech Honeydew from New Zealand
- Scottish Honey
- Scandinavian Hillside’s Honey
- Greek Honey
In the light of Huzur-e-Aala’s TUS Bayaan Mubarak we have decided to post articles on each one of these honeys, describing their origin as well as their medicinal benefits.
Sidr Honey: Origin
The first of our articles is on the world famous Sidr Honey, which is considered by many as the world’s best honey. This is considered as one of the most expensive honeys in the world, around 1 Kg of Sidr Honey would cost around 300-400 USD. It is only harvested twice a year in the Hadhramaut Mountains of Yemen during a strict forty day period.
This honey has been around for 7,000 years. The honey is produced by the bees who feed solely on the Sidr tree (also known as Lote tree, Christ’s thorn, Jujube or Nabkh tree). The Sidr tree is considered to be sacred by many native Yemeni residents and has long been used as part of folk medicine in this region. Due to this reason also this honey is very valuable. It is known as a veritable cure-all that can be used to successfully eliminate a variety of ailments and diseases. It is especially advantageous for those who have not had success with conventional medical treatments, even when dealing with major health issues such as heart disease, cancer and chronic digestive issues. It is rich with antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties along with an array of potent antioxidants.
Sidr Honey: Health Benefits
Heart Disease:
One of the most impressive benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey is its ability to stave off heart disease and prevent heart attacks. It lowers bad cholesterol levels and clears the arteries, making it ideal both as a preventative measure against heart attacks and for use by those who have had one or more heart attacks in the past. Routine use helps people to maintain flexibility in the veins and arteries which is commonly lost as a result of the normal aging process. Moreover, with good circulation and better blood delivery, problems like chronic fatigue and loss of breath can be minimized or even eliminated.
Sidr Honey for Cancer:
It is believed that cancer of the bones and the stomach can be successfully cured with Yemeni Sidr honey. This is especially likely when the healing benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey are mixed with the potent, curative properties of cinnamon. Mixing one tablespoon of this honey with a full teaspoon of ground cinnamon and taking this orally three times per day is a proper dosing schedule. Noticeable improvements can be gained in just one month. Other cancers treated with Sidr Honey are pancreatic, brain tumor, breast cancer and liver cancer.
Minor Illnesses and Crohn’s Disease:
Whether dealing with nausea related to the stomach flu, food poisoning or a common, seasonal cold, you can take advantage of the medical benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey. When mixed with cinnamon and taken orally, this will alleviate chronic congestion, cough, sinus pressure and an array of other problems. Yemeni Sidr honey has also been known to cure ulcers in the stomach and ulceric lesions throughout the lower gastrointestinal tract. This makes it ideal for those who suffer from Crohn’s diseases and Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS. More importantly, as an all-natural remedy, it does not entail the potentially dangerous side effects that are characteristic of the pharmaceutical products that are commonly used to treat chronic digestive illnesses. While many Crohn’s medications are known to be cancer-causing, people can get the same relief and a greater range of long-term improvements by simply capitalizing on the benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey. Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It causes inflammation of the lining of your digestive tract, which can lead to abdominal pain, severe diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition.
Cosmetic Improvements:
The benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey also extend into the realm of physical aesthetics. This is one of the most effective, natural remedies for chronic and cystic acne, given that it effectively targets the harmful micro-organisms that are responsible for blackheads, whiteheads, boils and other blemishes. A topical paste can be created by mixing this honey with ground cinnamon and this can then be applied to the affected area, worn overnight and washed off in the morning. Noticeable and lasting results can be achieved within just two weeks.
Improve Immune System Functioning:
Disease prevention is among the numerous health benefits of Yemeni Sidr honey. As a dietary supplement, this honey is great for bolstering and strengthening the human immune system. Studies have shown that it is one of the most effective ways to fight off influenza during times of high exposure. Given that this honey is rich in antioxidants and contains inherent antiseptic properties, it is the ideal defense against invasive organisms. These, however, are just a few of the many benefits of Yemeni sidr honey. This honey is also great for staving off the aesthetic, physical and mental effects of aging. Seniors can include small amounts of this honey in their diets to alleviate arthritis pain, bolster their brain health, protect their hearts and preserve mobility. This wonderful and highly potent product holds something for nearly every member of the family and thus, it more than lives up to its reputation as a natural cure-all.
