Cinnamon and Honey - Could save a life

I'm so sorry that I cannot give credit where credit is do.  The below is an email forward,  from my sister-in-law, who is an expert in health, nutrition and alternative health education.  We are very blessed with a good ample supply of raw honey from my Husband's parents - who keep bees.  It is fascinating to visit with the children and learn incredible facts about these life giving insects.  We in the prairies experience harsh arctic-like winters, and yet the bees stay alive in their hive, and even make an appearance outdoors on some a sunny winter days.


 Enjoy!
    
 
 Honey…  Honey  is the only food on the planet that will not  spoil or rot. It will do what some call turning  to sugar. In reality honey is always honey.  However, when left in a cool dark place for a  long time it will do what I rather call  "crystallizing".   When this happens I  loosen the lid, boil some water, and sit the  honey container in the hot water,  turn off the heat and let it  liquefy. It is then as good as it ever was.  Never boil honey or put it in a microwave. To do  so will kill the enzymes in the  honey.


Cinnamon and  Honey…

Bet the drug companies  won't like this one getting around.  Facts  on Honey and Cinnamon:  It is found that a  mixture of honey and Cinnamon cures most  diseases. Honey is produced in most of the  countries of the world. Scientists of today also  accept honey as a 'Ram Ban' (very effective)  medicine for all kinds of diseases.  Honey  can be used without any side effects for any  kind of diseases.

Today's science says  that even though honey is sweet, if taken in the  right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm  diabetic patients.   Weekly World News, a  magazine in Canada , in its issue dated 17  January 1995 has given the following list of  diseases that can be cured by honey and cinnamon  as researched by western scientists:

HEART  DISEASES


 
Make  a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply on  bread, instead of jelly and jam, and eat it  regularly for breakfast. It reduces the  cholesterol in the arteries and saves the  patient from heart attack. Also,  those who have already had an attack, if they do  this process daily, they are kept miles away  from the next attack. Regular use of the above  process relieves loss of breath and strengthens  the heart beat. In  America and Canada , various nursing homes have  treated patients successfully and have found  that as you age, the arteries and veins lose  their flexibility and get clogged; honey and  cinnamon revitalize the arteries and veins.

ARTHRITIS
Arthritis  patients may take daily, morning and night, one  cup of hot water with two spoons of honey and  one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. If taken  regularly even chronic arthritis can be cured.  In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen  University, it was found that when the doctors  treated their patients with a mixture of one  tablespoon Honey and half teaspoon Cinnamon  powder before breakfast, they found that within  a week, out of the 200 people so treated,  practically 73 patients were totally relieved of  pain, and within a month, mostly all the  patients who could not walk or move around  because of arthritis started walking without  pain.

BLADDER  INFECTIONS


 
Take  two tablespoons of cinnamon powder and one  teaspoon of honey in a glass of lukewarm water  and drink it. It destroys the germs in the  bladder.

CHOLESTEROL
Two  tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of  Cinnamon Powder mixed in 16 ounces of tea water  given to a cholesterol patient, was found to  reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood by  10 percent within two hours. As mentioned for  arthritic patients, if taken three times a day,  any chronic cholesterol is cured. According to  information received in the said Journal, pure  honey taken with food daily relieves complaints  of cholesterol.

COLDS
…  
Those suffering from common or severe  colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey  with 1/4 spoon
cinnamon powder daily for  three days. This process will cure most chronic  cough, cold, and clear the sinuses.

UPSET  STOMACH…

Scientists have found that honey  has various vitamins and iron in large amounts.  Constant use of Honey strengthens the white  blood corpuscles to fight bacterial and viral  diseases.

INDIGESTION
Cinnamon  powder sprinkled on two tablespoons of honey  taken before food relieves acidity and digests  the heaviest of meals.

INFLUENZA
A  scientist in Spain has proved that honey  contains a natural ' Ingredient' which kills the  influenza germs and saves the patient from flu.

LONGEVITY

Tea made with honey and cinnamon powder,  when taken regularly, arrests the ravages of old  age. Take four spoons of honey, one spoon of  cinnamon powder, and three cups of water and  boil to make like tea. Drink 1/4 cup, three to  four times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and  soft and arrests old age. Life spans also  increase and even a 100 year old, starts  performing the chores of a 20-year-old.

PIMPLES

Three tablespoons of honey and
one  teaspoon of cinnamon powder paste. Apply this  paste on the pimples before sleeping and wash it  next morning with warm water. If done daily for  two weeks, it removes pimples from the root.

SKIN  INFECTIONS

WEIGHT  LOSS

If taken regularly, it reduces the weight  of even the most obese person. Also, drinking  this mixture regularly does not allow the fat to  accumulate in the body even though the person  may eat a high calorie diet.

CANCER
…  
Recent research in Japan  and
Australia has revealed that advanced  cancer of the stomach and bones have been cured  successfully. Patients suffering from these  kinds of cancer should daily take one tablespoon  of honey with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder  for one month three times a day.

FATIGUE
Recent  studies have shown that the sugar content of  honey is more helpful rather than being  detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior  citizens, who take honey and cinnamon powder in  equal parts, are more alert and flexible.. Dr.  Milton, who has done research, says that a half  tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water  and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, taken daily  after brushing and in the afternoon at about  3:00 P.M. when the vitality of the body starts  to decrease, increases the vitality of the body  within a week.

BAD  BREATH

People of South  America
, first thing in the morning, gargle  with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder  mixed in hot water, so their breath stays fresh  throughout the day.

HEARING  LOSS

  2. Honey can also greatly relieve the pain caused by a bee sting. I'm assuming this is only for people that are not allergic. I've experienced this first hand! You put the honey directly on the bee sting (not taken internally) and the pain is IMMEDIATELY reduced to about 5% of what it was originally.

  3. I like what you say about honey. I've never been able to reconcile the idea that honey is bad for you. "Land flowing with milk and honey" was the Promised Land. Funny how those things are both attacked these days. The key is (for honey at least) like you mentioned, "if taken in the right dosage..." I'm not supposed to have honey, but I've never had a problem if it was in small amounts.

  4. it is funny how getting REALLY back to the basics is what's going make us better!

    yes - Cheri, i've heard that. last summer, my daughter got stung by some stinging nettles, and my mom applied some honey (don't even know if it was raw), and this hyper sensitive little girl was relieved!

    Andrea - my husband says the same thing, "milk and honey", and the fact that they are being called dangerous in their raw state, when really they both have many healing qualities, only in their raw state.

  5. I was JUST having a conversation with my mom yesterday about how little faith people have in natural remedies. I try really hard to keep in mind that if God made it, it has to have a purpose.

  11. I'm glad you folks enjoyed this information as much as I did. I have been adding honey and cinnamon into our diet around here more often.

    Lisa - let us know if it works for acid reflux. I had extreme (or it felt extreme) acid reflux with my son's pregnancy - the only cure I found was taking a teaspoon of baking soda in a little water - ya, it was not tasty, but it worked!
