Mend Cuts Faster with Honey


Applying honey to cuts can speed healing and prevent scarring.  According to experts, honey is hygroscopic, which means it draws water into itself, so it kills bacteria by dehydrating them.  Next time you get a cut, try applying honey instead of using over the counter meds right away.

Honey also helps heal burns and prevent blistering

This is the reason why I always have a jar of honey in my cupboard. You'll never know when you need one ;) Of course, apart from using it on my oatmeal (which tastes really, really good), it has so many health and beauty benefits too :)
