For thousands of years honey has been valued for its sweet taste, its
apothecary use, for sore throats, as an antibiotic, as an anti aging
elixir and for use in magical and religious rituals. It is also a symbol
of love, hence "honey-moon." Unspoiled honey was found in King Tut’s
tomb and has been commonly used for embalming. It is believed
that Ancient Egyptians were the first beekeepers and honey was precious
in a sugar free world. There are dozens of references to honey in the
Old and New Testament; perhaps most recognized is Exodus, where it is
written that G-d shall free the enslaved Hebrews toiling for their
Eygyptian masters and lead them to a land of milk and honey. Royal
Jelly- the food created by the drones for the Queen Bee, has been used
in cosmetics for over a century and in addition to giving off a honeyed
perfume, it is purported to be a magic elixir for anti-aging, increasing
libido and combating depression
