Being drying and astringent, honey is good to apply to burns and wounds. It is aphrodisiac and strengthening, and because, like poison, it quickly moves to the deepest tissues, it is the best of medications, but indigestion due to honey is reported to be very difficult to treat. Honey must be used raw, never cooked.
