Honey - a cure for allergies?

Yes darling, if you have allergies, apparently honey can be beneficial. It makse sense to me that if you eat honey that is local to your area, it may help prevent your seasonal allergies since bees use the pollen from local plants and eventually it ends up in your honey.

and i quote: 'Thousands of people swear by it, saying that a spoonful a day, preferably starting well before the pollen season, has transformed their lives.'
