I’ve written about the health benefits of honey, but it also has many other uses, particularly in survival scenarios.

In this video, SkinnyMedic shares 5 ways raw honey can be used for first aid. I typed them up, but be sure to check out the video below for more details.

Note: If you try any of these things, make sure it’s real honey. There are many artificial honeys in the grocery stores masquerading as real honey.

1. Minor Cuts – Once the bleeding is under control, use honey (instead of antibiotic ointments) to prevent infection, as it’s a great natural antibiotic.

2. Minor Burns – Again, because honey is a natural antibiotic, it can help prevent a burn from getting infected, and it can help the burn heal faster.

3. Seasonal Allergies – A teaspoon of local honey in your tea or coffee will help inoculate you against local allergens.

4 & 5. Cough and Sore Throat – Warm up some honey and put it in your tea to soothe your throat and stop coughing.

To learn more about these uses, watch the full video below.

    Raw honey is effective only when it hasn’t been heated. Once it is heated over about 40C (104F) it loses some of its properties.

      Good to know . Preppers in my area (Arizona) need to know this . The majority of bug out locations probably won’t have a prolonged way of keeping raw honey below 104 f. Do you have any idea if vacuum dehydrated to a crystalline form
      , honey would still retain its antibacterial properties ?
