(Special pre-Fourth of the July Amazon 1.99 SALE)
While my original “bible on honey” was penned fifteen years ago at Tahoe, a newly revised second edition of the #1 hit, is coming in August 2026! I noticed it's maintained #2 Top Best Seller in antioxidants on Amazon; it is sandwiched in between Anti-inflammatory books--a big trend. Yep, as one reader told me, all the diseases and ailments I write about are linked to one culprit--INFLAMMATION! Indeed!
My current love of lavender honey for the summer is a testament to its enduring appeal. Lavender honey is a monofloral honey produced by bees that forage on lavender blossoms, making it a favorite among me and other connoisseurs. So, I always keep a jar of quality lavender honey (it’s smooth, creamy, and rich with a citrusy and woodsy flavor). But that's not all...
These honeys are anti-inflammatory--which can help keep infections at bay stopping the scourge of chronic diseases developing, including immunity health scares like viruses and even pneumonia to a life-threatening cardiac event. Yes, research shows proof that the clean food Mediterranean diet (as in The Healing Powers of Honey) can indeed keep you well--just like these honeys...
Why Honey from the Hive Makes a Cool Gift for Hot Summer Days and Nights.
As noted, the delicate floral notes with a sweet finish and tang for me make it a gourmet item that's a cut above regular honey. It's a culinary adventure in a jar! It can be drizzled over yogurt, oatmeal, or toast, used in baking, paired with cheeses, or even added to cocktails for a sophisticated twist. The antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and calming properties make it a gift that's both delicious and good for the mind, body, and spirit.
The honey itself often has a golden hue, and when packaged nicely, it makes for a super attractive gift. A real treat for the summertime, a little jar of calm in the heat!
