Honey

Honey has been considered the best natural antibiotic in the world, and it’s capable of strengthening our white blood cells, which help us fight off infections of all kinds. Honey is not only a natural antibiotic but a natural antioxidant as well. Antioxidants reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and certain kinds of cancer. Another little-known fact about honey is that it can be applied directly to the skin to reduce inflammation and swelling. It can help treat a wide variety of skin conditions like psoriasis and hemorrhoids.
