a knowledged-filled book of honey-healing recipes
I purchased this book Sept 12, 2019 via Amazon. This is an excellent, methodically-researched book full of great recipe remedies. Since honey is the base ingredient for all of the wonderful recipes and techniques, she goes into great detail on responsible beekeeping and being a bee-friendly gardener,
making herbal honey, honey's healing history, and the importance of working with nature which, in turn, can benefit us humans and the various health ailments we experience. She shares with the reader her personal story which gives us the insight to her motivation and her devotion to natural remedies for body wellness. She also includes honey-healing recipes from various cultures around the world. All in all, a fantastic book full of knowledge and delicious body-benefitting recipes which you will use again and again (I bought one for myself and another to give as a gift).

I just purchased this book after listening to author Dawn Combs during a Zoom meeting. I have a few of her other books, and this one is over the top with an abundance of recipes for various health concerns that we all have these days. Ingredients are easy to find at your local health food store. Conc
ise recipes, attractive photos, and best of all, Dawn's commentary.

Very pleased with the quality of this book. Physically it is beautiful, printed on quality paper with loads of photos. I love honey so I'm glad to find so much more information incorporating it with my other healing passion--herbs. A book of substance, not fluff.

Definetely worth reading and practicing. This book is more than just remedies.
TL:DR • Good for those interested in natural remedies. • Lot's of recipes for all kinds of ailments or as a health boost. • Clear explanations of the effects/ interactions of each herbs in the recipes. • Dawn Combs studied with Rosemary Gladstar. • If you are interested about starting your own beefar
m and making your own honey remedies. I use honey as body nourishment, because it's a substance full of nutrients and healthy benefits. I was just interested about other ways to prepare honey and this book went way beyond my expectations. I really liked how it is presented. First there's Dawn's story and how, as it is usually the case, a health issue (in this case infertility) paved the way towards what now is a honeybee farm where she and her husband make use of their herb garden and honey to prepare honey spreads, syrups, honey boosters, etc. In this book, she shares recipes and techniques learned throughout her 13 years of experience. The book is divided into 3 parts. The first part explains how honey is made, properties, history, healing qualities and instructions for making herbal honey preparations (infused honey, oxymels, electuaries, pills,etc). Really liked that it explains how to choose or grow herbs and honey and a guide to suitable plants for each preparation, in order to get the best benefits from each. The second part is about recipes. Lots and lost of recipes for different kinds of ailments or as health boosters. What I specially like is that each recipe comes with Dawn's commentary and an explanation of how each herb contributes or affects in the preparation. For example, The Pain Relief Honey Spread recipe includes wild lettuce (Lactuca virosa) and explains how this herb is an opiate-level pain killer without the side effects. I really love that it’s not just instructions, but clear explanations on how each ingredient aid our body or interacts with other substances. The third and last part put a smile on my face. It's about helping the bees and becoming a beekeeper. Sustainability is another great aspect this book focuses on, from explaining the importance of growing your own herbs and making sure you are not depleting plant sources, to instructions for making a bee fountain and supporting the bee community. Loved this book!. I read it as an eARC, all thoughts are my own.
