Hi dear steemians....
Honey has not yet revealed all its virtues. According to Canadian researchers at the University of Ottawa, he could help fight chronic sinusitis.
Honey would contain an antimicrobial that attacks the bacteria responsible for many infections. A study by Canadian researchers at the University of Ottawa, presented at the American Academy of Otolaryngology in Chicago on September 23, 2008, confirms the benefits of traditional medicine for hundreds of years.
Honey and antibiotics against bacteria
Researchers applied honey and antibiotics to bacteria that cause sinusitis. They realized that honey was more effective than conventional antibiotics in destroying them. Indeed, over time, many bacteria have mutated to resist antibiotics. The study concludes that the honeys from New Zealand and Yemen used for the experiment could be used to treat chronic, often resistant infections.
Known for millennia for its healing properties, honey has hitherto been neglected by modern scientific studies. Today, medicine is rediscovering its qualities, which had been somewhat forgotten since the spread of antibiotic use. As a poultice, it has already treated wounds infected not very resistant bacteria in a few weeks. Some hospitals in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand also use it.
The antiseptic effect of honey comes from an enzyme, glucose-oxidase, produced by bees. It catalyzes the oxidation of sugar, with production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), or hydrogen peroxide, with antiseptic properties.
