They say everything old is new again and now that applies to medicine. A natural germ-fighter used centuries ago is making a comeback.
Doctors are using Medihoney. It's a new wound dressing that's made tremendous progress with diabetic patients. Medihoney is more potent than regular honey and is made by bees in New Zealand.
"The honey has some pretty basic properties and principals to it, in that it's not strong enough to cause damage to the healthy cells, yet it's effective enough to remove the bacterial load on the surface of the wound," said Dr. John Steinberg.
Medihoney is a natural antibacterial that draws moisture out of the wound to keep it clean. The side effects are practically zero.
Only select hospitals across the country are using Medihoney.
Ask your doctor if this is something that could be recommended for you. For more information on Medihoney, click on the link on the right side of this webpage.
