so honey makes bacteria beehave?
ahahhahhah
lol
no it makes it beehive

PSA- only use medical grade honey!
When I was a second year podiatry student in a Large hospital I was in line to work up the first patient of the day. As I was walking from the office to his room I could smell the patient before I saw him. When I got there I asked him what he was dressing the wound with. "I was using medihoney but I couldn't make my appointment last week so I used some Manuka honey from my shelf."
Well it caused him to have gas gangrene with, you guessed it a clostridium infection. He ended up loosing his entire lower leg because of that infection.:{
Morale of the story always use medical grade honey on wounds.
and why is medical grade honey is different? i really don’t get it.
Bought a tube of manuka medical honey for my surgery site on my temple. The site became infected. I had to go to the Doctor who gave me Rx for antibiotics, oral and topical. Over the course of taking the antibiotics, the surgery site recovered. I won’t trust manuka honey again.
@@fly89 they sanitize it so it doesn't have those clostridium spores that can cause infection. They talk about it in this video towards the end.
@James Willmore Huh, as the son of a long time beekeeper here in NZ, we've always used (our) Manuka on wounds.
Never, EVER, had a problem like you described.
Quite to the contrary infact.
Potentially he used a Manuka honey that had chemicals added to it and that was the problem?
Either way, I'm going to continue using (our personally made) Manuka honey.
So honey it's good for the bees and nature but it's not ok for humans as we're some sort of aliens from another planet? WHY?

I really, really want to be a bee keeper since a long time ago. But I never once lived in a countryside, and still make a living in a city. I wish one day I could save some money to build an apiary, and brake through my comfort zone to become one.
me too
I wish you all the best
Might wait till the apocalypse is over
You can be a beekeeper in the city. I've got friends in Philadelphia that keep bees. Some are kept in community gardens, or on roof tops. Check it out.
I would take beekeeping classes and find a mentor before investing. It's not a cheap hobby, trust me. I've kept bees for close to 25 years.
I hope you do if it best suites you. Bees are not forever in this day and age. So the more the merrier.
A few years ago i went to a really out of the way place in Egypt to give some free first aid training. We had all the books and modern knowledge and I guess in that knowledge felt self righteous. When i asked .a group how do you treat a burn they said “put honey on it” - “ oh no” i said “you do this blah blah blah”. Little did i know how correct they were. The honey protected the burn from becoming infected. I also asked how to treat a bleeding wound, their answer- pour coffee granules on it!! I was shocked at this utter lack of knowledge and common sense until i found out that coffee granules act as a very powerful coagulant!! In our quest to move forward we often ignore our knowledge from the past!
I wonder how they treat bee stings? More honey?
good for you, you accepted that your bias was under a false pretense!

Hypogycemia is also a symptom of diabetics, especially if they take TOO much insulin. It is the reason some literally carry glucose tablets around.
+MissTwinkle101 I'm one of the lucky people with really good insurance. I can afford high-tech technology. I have a wireless continuous insulin pump. It allows me to have my daily insulin without a shot, and be able to take insulin for meals without shots. I can have all the sugar, sweets and high-carb foods anytime I want, within reason of course. I'm not gonna eat a WHOLE cake after all, nor would a non-Diabetic person either. Besides, I don't like cake that much, so I'll only have a small slice at most, which is around 80 carbohydrates depending on the cake.
Also, a common misconception I see people having about diabetics is that they're allergic to sugar... What? Not at all...

*S L U R P*
My coworker is a bee keeper as a hobby. Occasionally he will bring some in and the last time he just cut a square of the actual wax that was saturated with honey. There’s nothing better than tearing off a piece and just chewing on it. My new favorite thing I didn’t even know about
@Stellvia J Hoenheim boosts immune system
When I was young and went to the town’s grocery store, the honey always came in the comb. Didn’t know it came in a bottle until I was in high school. The town was surrounded by fruit orchards if cherries, peaches, plumbs, apples, pears . Suppose the farmers also kept beehives. It was beautiful in the spring when the trees turned white or pink with blossoms for miles around the town
@Stellvia J Hoenheim As opposed to other appetizing forms of nutrition like animal muscles and plant ovaries.
@Stellvia J Hoenheim Well, by that logic, you're eating periods/ovaries of some trees when you're eating a fruit. It's just how it is.
my grandad used to keep bees and he would always give us a little box of honey with the chewy wax on top every time we visited and it was definitely my favorite part of the honey.
I'm also a beekeeper (family has been beekeeping for 3 generations), and on the side I do pest control. And this comment section...
I really love how theirs a more focus on bees and entomology, don't get me wrong. Yes we are in the stages of a massive colony breakdown (I lost 150 hives last year to CCD caused by harmful and aggressive pesticides, and another 75 to the extreme cold in the pacific NW which can be attributed to climate change.) and we're all grateful to the awareness that it being spread.
But I have seen so many people In one breath say "save the bees! Support your local beekeeper! You need to be more environmentally conscious!" And then turn around with a can of raid and destroy a native hive or ground nest because it's not neatly packed in a box, and their all self righteous. Wasps and Hornets are part of this eco system too, and they have their place. I relocate the hives I capture if I can. Those areas you just riddled with the insect equivalent of a biochemical bomb are places where my bees go too, just, be mindful of what your putting into the ecosystem. It has consequences you cannot even imagine.
If your having problems with a hive try hiring a pest control professional who (if it's an option, some hives you just cannot relocate because their in the walls or something) is able to not use pesticides, and if theirs a honeybee swarm, call your local beekeeper or beekeeping Guild, they'll be more than happy to handle it.
Good point and I might consider it in the future. But honestly if a wasp colony (not so much bees) settle too close to my house I will use bug spray to keep them away, thats not gonna change. I can let them be anywhere else but not where I live
Silent spring. That's a book. Let's hope it isn't a reality. Silent spring.
I'm allergic to wasps. I prefer to call a professional, bit I will do what I have to to keep myself safe.
I have found red wasps to be not aggressive but hornets still freak me out.
Most years while in the yard I get swarmed and stung 15 to 25 times by yellow jackets nesting in the ground then they get the after dark gasoline combustion treatment.
Good information, I once had third degree burns on my hand. I had blisters and my skin came off around my fingers. I believe around the forth day after I started to use raw bee honey because I remembered honey was supposed to be good for burns. I can testify that my hand looks the same as my other hand that I was lucky that it healed well.
You are describing second degree burns - blisters and sloughing of skin but no charring. When I had that from boiling coolant splashing on my hand and the cuff of my shirt sleeve and sweatshirt, I used cold water for a few hours and it healed just fine.
I have used honey 3 times for bacterial infections. The worst one was a severe infected cyst just under my jaw, the whole side of my face was swollen with tooth and ear ache. I was in the hospital for 5 days on iv antibiotics and steroids. I still had the infected cyst when I went home. I filled a plastic spoon with honey, and smeared and held up the honey to the cyst for 15 minutes then splashed it with water in the shower. The pus from the infection started pouring out and I had to keep swishing it down the drain, when I brushed my teeth the pus ran out into the basin. For the rest of the day I used paper towel Kleenex was too small. The wound was completely cleaned out from infection and then healed.
Man, bees are just the best.

The name makes perfect sense, if you have an appreciation for the nomenclature of chemicals and compounds. Also it's far far from the worst offender in terms of long scientific names. You can Google examples.
I am a nurse & have used pharmaceutical grade honey as part of wound care routines/treatments in the hospital!! I personally put organic honey on small burns, acne, everything!

@@juanpablomina1346 Agreed. 👍
We use Manuka honey on our horses for wounds. Our BIG guy had a stick stuck in about 15" inches in an upwards direction from the bottom of his chest toward his neck . It was approximately 2" in diameter and left a big hole when we pulled it out. Another one had a 6' triangular flap of skin hanging off his chest. Both healed up very quickly and you now have to look very hard to see where it was. Put a generous amount on the wounds, and kept re-applying as necessary. And what really surprised me was there were no flies or other insects that were attracted to it. It may be expensive, but it's worth its weight in gold when it comes to healing.
Wish if I can afford it for my medical condition it's really expensive :(
The scientific/explanation part is flawless. I just wish there's more in terms of advice and application in/for the real world. In the beginning I was unsure if the dude wanted me to have it part of my diet or have it apply on wounds or scratches. When he said "eat" in the end I thought, "Oh, alright." But all that explaining to only have the bottom line 'eat'? I don't know sounds lacking. Incidentally, this is kind of why I get put off with the academe sometimes. Everything is either facts and theories but there's not even examples to cite in real life.
But let's not end it on a negative note.
Bees are awesome and we should protect them at all costs.
Eating it does nothing for wound care. The research says medical grade MANUKA honey applied topically under appropriate guidance from a wound care specialist is effective. This cannot be generalized to other types of honey, as manuka honey has special properties including the increased amount of OH ions which contribute to its antibacterial/ bacteriostatic effectiveness. There are loads of studies on this available thru Coghlan’s if you’re interested. I did a project on this in a research course in nursing school about 10 years ago.
I heard him say with antibiotics, so i immediately thought yogurt and honey would be a good remedy… I could be wrong
For those who don't understand the pH thing Hank said:
Water is pH7
Honey is pH4
Honey is roughly a thousand times more acidic than water because 7-4 = 3. And 10^3 = 1000
Logs 101
So do you know how decimals work? My chemistry 11 teacher won't tell me.
Teagan P Chem 11? Do you happen to be in BC?
Why?
that really doesnt work to help anyone understand how acidic honey is considered because most people (including me) are unable to notice the acidity in water, cant taste it, is overwhelmed by its other chemical properties when used as a cleaner. so from my perspective 1000 times as acidic as water is effectively 1000*0 so 0.
so to help myself and perhaps others i will use the method you demonstrated to explain its acidity. distilled vinegar has a PH of about 2.6 (according to wikipedia), so 2.6-4=1.4 and 10^1.4=~25 so honey is 1/25th as acidic as distilled vinegar.
Here in Morocco honey is almost considered to be "holy" alongside dates and bread.
Adnane Khirchi so basically the ingredients to date bars?
Cole Jones hahaha triple streak
Duncan Bananatyne O.o

In 1993, a group of scientist found a human-equivalent of drosophila hh gene that enables the cell to segmentate correctly. Failure to use this gene caused multiple spikes to appear, like a hedgehog's quill.
So how do they name this gene in human? It's...... Sonic Hedgehog Gene (Shh). Because one of the researchers just saw an ad of SEGA game.
So if you have a bored scientist with world-level invention, you can find random names everywhere. Ever google Sonic and ended up with mixed up result from neurobiology site? His fault, really.. :D :D
@@jacqueboyce3176 Propolis is a mixture of tree sap, bees wax (making it resin like glue substance) with bee saliva which contains antibiotic properties.

Astounding facts, never knew. Very firmly conveyed. Keep going!
But! A lot of what is sold in the grocery store as "honey" really isn't. If your honey is nice and clear, it has been highly filtered. Technically, if the pollen has been filtered out, the product no longer fits the definition of "honey". Worse yet, they pasteurize it - not only is pasteurization totally unnecessary, it destroys the health promoting enzymes. Then, they cut it with high fructose corn syrup. The best source for honey is from local beekeepers. Raw, right from the hive, with bits of comb and what-not still included. Failing that, next best would be a health food store. Again, look for local if at all possible. Locally produced honey will have local pollens and can actually reduce allergies! But RAW honey is most important whether it is local or not.
+Betsy Singh-Anand Wow! Is that so? Interesting! Thanx for the info! :)
My parents always buy this delicious thick honey that isn't clear. It's sooooooo tasty. I've eaten both and the one straight from the hive is way better. It doesn't have little bee limbs or whatever on it. Bees know how to dispose of dead bees and keep them away from the honey.
How about filtered enough to get rid of mites and bee bits, but not the pollen? And how are bee bits getting into the honey, anyway? Bees dump their dead pretty darn quick, and living ones are more than capable of flying away. How sloppy are the bee keepers?! Do they carry fly swatters with them when they go to collect?
It should only be SLIGHTLY filtered, not enough to get rid of all the good stuff, but enough to remove junk in the honey.
Mites are the source of health tho
Thanks, honey.

why should there be a lot of bacteria in our stomach? the hydrochloric acid will probably kill all of the bacteria coming in.
[Subjektnamen hier eingeben] there are a lot actually
[Subjektnamen hier eingeben] mostly the good ones
Jr B Okay, didn't know about this. Thank you for the education :)
Excellent work.
@SciShow FYI; Manuka is an Australian native plant to Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Tasmania. Also in New Zealand.
It's 2020, and last I was aware of, there still has NEVER been a confirmed case of botulism poisoning caused by ingesting honey by an infant. Spores can be present in the honey, but spores are also found in many other foods in their inactive state. Honey has been given a bad rap in this case. If I am wrong please let me know of the spcific case and documentation so I may correct my thinking. I've kept bees for the last 20 years and there have been many challanges, this being one of them.
Anti-BEE-otics. I caught that you dirty punster.
I cant beelieve you just did that
STOP THE FUCKING PUNS
Lynx Gasmask wow way to bee a downer
Pretty sweet pun if you ask me.
she is smart beeotics are good for you XD
Realy good information
Stunging information
The honey sold in cute bear bottle are likely to be so processed that it has lost its natural benefits. Raw honey would be the ideal type to get
In Greece and I believe that's how it works in EU in general, the manufacturers can label a product as honey only if that product is 100% honey. If it has even a small percentage of aromatics or whatever, then it has to be labelled a sweet product instead of honey.
@@perseusarkouda True, it's got to have a single ingredient (honey ofc) and the manufacturer has to specify where the honey comes from, either EU or Non-EU.
@@perseusarkouda that doesn't affect pasteurization
I’m trying to find things to help my bodies immune system. Honey and what’s some other suggestions?
@@christianthomaswilborn8686 I think you should consult a doctor on this, the internet is filled with crazy people.
Did not know about it being unsafe to give honey to infants. Learned something today.
+Tactavious I just got some from the store the other day (getting hyped on honey recently lol) and I was surprised when that was the first thing I read on it
I guess just another reason to always read the label on everything
+Tactavious iT WAS GIVE TO ME AS A INFANT NEVER HURT ME NONE

As I’m in between insurance providers right now…I’m actually quite grateful for this video
Would like to see him elaborate further on how exactly hospitals use honey, and what the reason is that it is a certain grade of honey (plus how that grade is reached).
Well it's because if you apply honey to an open wound, it's like your adding a protective layer of antibacterial shielding. In the middle ages, doctors would cauterize and kill surface bacteria with boiling wine, then apply honey to the wound to make sure new bacteria doesn't get into it, then cover the wound up with a form of bandage. That's how most flesh wounds were treated! No wonder how we got so far in advancing medicine, amazing isn't it?
@@captainkiok881 Indeed.
@@captainkiok881 You'll find it interesting to note perhaps that there was no concept of bacterium, what that even was, or even how to prevent bacterial infections because they didn't understand the mechanisms involved with microbiology, at least until perhaps later in 1600's perhaps. Yet, by then there were treatments passed through generations that perhaps stumbled upon varying degrees of effectiveness, and others not.

I love the smell of honey in the morning. Smells like . . . Victory.

Thanks for sharing. Thats why hot citron tea with honey tastes so well during a cold/ having a chill.
This was fascinating!
Too bad most of the "honey" sold in stores is just honey flavored corn syrup. I'm fortunate to live in the midwest where beekeepers are almost everywhere, I can get fresh REAL honey fairly easily during the spring and summer.
Local honey is truly the greatest, not only because of the amazing flavor, but it's produced from the same pollens that cause your seasonal allergies. If you suffer from seasonal allergies eating local honey will definitely help you out.
Thank you I'm going to try that. Hope that helps my allergies even if they arent that bad.
Wait, I'm not following, Doesn't that mean you'll get more allergies?
Check the ingredients before you buy!
I live in the Midwest too and just use the stuff in the bear bottle. It works fine
Can you really sell fake honey as honey in the US?
Thank you! Now I understand, honey itself isn't the problem for babies. It's the potential hitchhiking botulism spores!
Blessings
Amazing!! Best vid I have seen in ages!!
Thx a lot
This video was very informative and in depth. Hive five!

That pun stung me.
Who else likes raw unfiltered honey that is a little bit grainy from crystallization?
I have a quart jar of it right now from a local apiary. Locust blossom honey
Delicious!
I would mix honey with brown sugar and it when I was younger, wasn't the healthiest, but man... That texture....
I miss those times we had beehives in our garden and i could just chew on a honeycomb, just before they were put into a honey extractor.
Loved to turn that handle and watch honey flowing to jars :)

@@jacqueboyce3176 Really? Parts of bees? It is possible to sometimes find that in honey, yet it is very unlikely. Bees are very clean and they don't leave their dead parts lying around in hive and ESPECIALLY not inside honey. If there are any bee parts, it is most likely that someone damaged a bee during honeycomb extraction but from my experience, beekepers try to be really careful and delicate. My grandpa had a special brush made out of feathers to brush off bees from combs.
And rotary honey extractor is not a cofee grinder. It doesn't chop up bits inside. It's only rotating a few frames with honey combs, making honey to splash on sides and flow freely down.
I used to be almost guaranteed to have two sinus infections/common colds per year. Several years ago I started putting honey in every cup of my coffee because I like it.
Haven't had a cold since then, even though everyone else in my household has had several.
The many scratches and scrapes on the thin old skin of my hands and arms building trailers never get infected, even in a somewhat dirty environment.
I love watching your videos man
Honey and peanut butter, one of my favorite sandwiches.
im glad to learn that im not the only one that love this , im 42 and nobody never wanted to try it ^^ so now you got 11 thumbs up , it s time to get our own honey/peanut butter festival !!
@Victor Dell tuna together with all of those ingredients?
@Victor Dell so it'd be like a Tuna yogurt? Hmm I might give it a shot
Mine too w/ ice cold milk, bliss!

That's part of why the Vikings were so big. Mead(wine made with honey instead of grapes) was a popular drink that Odin recommended and those antibacterial properties remained. So the people were just that little big healthier.
I already knew most of this but not all so thanks for widening my knowledge of honey.
Hello I'm a bee farmer. I used it on a bad cut and it healed nicely 😁

Mom used to mix honey and lime juice in a small cup and have me spoon it and eat it when i’m feeling sick or have a sore throat, and it all makes sense now why this was so effective!
