Benefits of Honey: Healing Those Summer Scrapes

If you’ve gotten into a summer scrape, literally, you’ll need to know the basics for healing — and reaching for a jar of honey is one of them.

Summer is a time for cuts and scrapes, both for kids and adults. We’re outside weeding, trimming, going barefoot, and skateboarding — and things happen: We fall, we slip, we scrape on the picnic table edge, we spear ourselves with the barbecue fork.

The two operative words for dealing with a cut (laceration) or scrape (abrasion) are: 1. Clean. 2. Immediately.

First, let a little blood flow out — this actually helps heal the wound. Then pour water over it, wash it with mild soap, and rinse it again. (Don’t use antibacterial soaps that contain triclosan, which can be bad for you.)

Carefully remove any grass, asphalt, or other solid material that might infect the wound, and rinse again. If the scrape or cut will come in contact with daily dirt, be sure to cover it with gauze and tape.
In the case of a deeper, freely bleeding cut:

Step 1: Staunch the flow. With a clean piece of gauze or cloth apply firm, steady pressure with your hand. Hold it for 5 minutes, helping the blood clot.

Step 2: Try to hold the bleeding part — usually an arm, hand, or leg (as you’re lying down) above your heart.

Step 3: Don’t peek at progress: This disrupts the clotting and healing process.

Step 4: If blood soaks through the gauze, don’t change it. Just pile more on top, and keep pressing.

Once the flow has stopped and the cloth sticks to the blood, just leave it alone.
For small cuts and scrapes whose blood flow is under control, try this soothing remedy using honey and aloe. Since ancient times, the gel of the aloe vera plant, with its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties, has been used to heal wounds.

Honey, too, has these properties and has been used to treat cuts, scrapes, and deeper wounds for centuries. The ancient Egyptians even buried it with the dead for use in the afterlife. A recent test of honey found in one tomb showed that its antibacterial properties were still intact!

With advancements in creams, gels, and ointments over the past century, honey’s health benefits were overlooked. But it’s making a comeback. Honey-impregnated dressings are being applied to the most stubborn wounds. Manuka honey, made by the bees that feed on the New Zealand manuka bush has especially high antibacterial activity, and has even been used to treat the drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus called MRSA.

Try this honey-aloe remedy on your next backyard bump, then put up your feet as the dynamic duo works its magic. While featured in our 500 Time Tested Home Remedies and the Science Behind Them, this special mix was recorded as early as 70 B.C. by the Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder (minus the refrigerator):

• Blend 1 tablespoon of honey with 1 tablespoon of fresh Aloe vera gel or com-mercially prepared aloe gel (with at least 99 percent Aloe vera).
• Spread it across the clean wound.
• Refrigerate the rest in a jar and use as needed.

Health Benefits of Cinnamon

I learned that cinnamon has wonderful and surprising benefits for our health! Not only does it taste great in our desserts but it's also great for the health. It is known to be excellent for Diabetics in that it regulates blood sugar. Cinnamon is sold in pill form, in teabags, in powder form and in its natural bark form. I must say that the tea tastes excellent! It is naturally sweet so no need to add sugar. Here are a couple more health benefits that cinnamon posesses:

1. The spice's aroma has been said to boost mood, cognitive function and memory. Specifically, notes the website World's Healthiest Foods: "cinnamon improved participants' scores on tasks related to attentional processes, virtual recognition memory, working memory, and visual-motor speed while working on a computer-based program."

2. It may lower blood sugar in individuals with diabetes. It can also help stabilize blood sugar, which assists in weight loss, so if you adore the flavor, add a dash to your morning cereal or cup of coffee each morning. With any luck, your hunger hunger and sugar cravings will be reduced throughout the day.

3. Just half a teaspoon a day may lower "bad cholesterol" (LDL), but this does not mean that you should forego exercise or wantonly indulge in foods high in saturated fats.

4. It can help stop the growth of bacteria in foods, thus making it a natural food preservative.

5. When mixed with hot water and honey or tea with ginger, it may prevent the onset of the flu or a cold. It may also alleviate headaches or migraines.

6. Cinnamon is also believed to be a homeopathic menstrual aid, in that it may ease uncomfortable cramping, but even bigger claims link it to fertility problems by jumpstarting irregular menstrual cycles.

7. High in antioxidants, the spice may come in handy treating acne issues and making way for clearer complexions. Learnvest.com suggests trying this treatment method: "Mix 1 teaspoon of powdered cinnamon with 3 tablespoons of honey, apply to the skin, and let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight. Wash off with warm water."

8. Medication-resistant yeast infections may also benefit from the ingestion of cinnamon, based on its anti-fungal properties.

So keep these facts in mind and use cinnamon to your advantage!
