What are the benefits of CBD-Infused Honey
Nov 30, 2019
What’s your earliest memory of honey?
Perhaps, it’s Winnie the Pooh savoring a pot. A golden spoonful dipped into a cup of hot tea. The gooey, satisfying center of a lozenge to soothe a scratchy throat. A translucent stream drizzled onto a mound of granola. The light coating on a serving of warm carrots. (Oh, bother, who’s hungry?)
Lucky for us, honey is a part of our American food culture. Historically, it has been used to treat and heal wounds and illnesses in both the biblical and Roman times and during the reigns of English kings and queens. CBD is becoming increasingly popular in the US. In fact, it’s even being added to foods to help with pain, anxiety and other health and wellness concerns. The addition of CBD to local honey creates a great tasting product chocked full of health benefits.
What is CBD Honey?
Simply put, CBD honey is locally sourced honey that has been infused with CBD oil. CBD, also known as cannabidiol, is most frequently used to:
It can be ingested by itself, mixed with creams and lotions for topical applications or added to food as a CBD edible.
As with any CBD edible, CBD honey is simply another way to consume your daily CBD allotment. You can use your CBD-infused honey in the same way you do regular honey – by adding it to your favorite beverage or food or simply enjoying it by the spoonful.
Benefits of CBD-Infused Honey
The health benefits of honey are widespread, including use in the treatment of asthma, throat infections, fatigue, constipation, eczema, eye diseases, and more. While we don’t have time to discuss them all, let’s visit a few of the reasons honey is good for your health.
- Antioxidants
Honey’s antioxidant properties help to satiate the increasing demand for antioxidant supply in food. In fact, honey is rich in flavonoids and polyphenols which act as antioxidants and combat free radicals responsible for illnesses including diabetes, cancer, and even heart disease.
- Decreases Cholesterol
Cholesterol in your body can be both good AND bad. The two types of cholesterol: LDL (a.k.a. bad cholesterol) and HDL (a.k.a. good cholesterol) can lead to heart disease if not carefully balanced. Honey is known for improving cholesterol levels. In fact, a recent study found that honey increased good cholesterol and decreased bad cholesterol over a period of 30 days. If your cholesterol is out of whack, it might be time to grab a bottle of CBD-infused honey.
- Cough Suppressant
Struggling to get over the cold and flu virus? Honey might be just what the doctor ordered. A recent study related to sleep quality for coughing children resulted in parents rating honey “most favorably for symptomatic relief of their child’s nocturnal cough and sleep difficulty due to upper respiratory tract infection.”
Instead of reaching for the cough syrup, why not embrace the relief of CBD-infused honey in Texas the next time you have a cold.
- Anti-Inflammatory
Inflammation plagues us all. In the case of a cut or wound, inflammation is considered normal, even necessary for healing. On the flip side, chronic inflammation due to underlying medical issues can become a problem. While the anti-inflammatory effects of honey are still being determined, research suggests that honey calms inflammation of the skin and may help to relieve inflammation in the bowels as well.
Research shows that CBD oil is also a potentially effective treatment for conditions caused by inflammation, so it’s no wonder that CBD-infused honey is all the rage.
- Allergies
Struggling with seasonal allergies? If so, reach for some local honey. Locally sourced honey contains local pollen. Ingest that local pollen and eventually, you’ll become less affected by it. So, rather than heading to the doctor for an allergen desensitization procedure, why not reach for a bottle of local CBD-infused honey?
