About the benefits of cell honey
Honeycomb honey comes to your table exactly as it should be: completely natural, aromatic, tasty and 100% sterile. Such honey, if stored correctly, can remain liquid for a whole year, or even more - this is another proof of the tightness and reliability of bee packaging. If you bought it, know - you're in luck. For health, it is much more useful than ordinary, artificially pumped from honeycombs and collected in cans or barrels.
But forget about honey for a moment and return to the wax combs themselves. Are they useful and bear at least some kind of load besides the packaging? Of course yes! Honeycomb is much tastier and more aromatic than usual, not only because of hermetic storage in bee containers, but wax also gives some of its priceless healing properties. The fact is that wax has a very complex biochemical composition, contains vitamins, minerals, esters, hydrocarbons and fatty acids. Thanks to such a rich composition, wax is often used in cosmetics and medicines.
Natural chewing gum
So, to deny yourself such a useful natural product, of course, is not worth it. But how to use wax from honeycombs correctly? Very simple. If you want to enjoy a serving of honey, just cut off or break off a piece of honey and chew in your mouth until all of their contents get into your stomach. After that, a crumpled ball of wax will remain on the tongue. In no case should you spit it out, because there are still many useful substances inside!
You can chew wax for a long time in your mouth like chewing gum. From the temperature of the human body, it softens and becomes very plastic. Such a procedure will allow you to get rid of bacteria and pathogens in the oral cavity, cure diseases of the throat and upper respiratory tract, as well as freshen your breath. With regular chewing of cell wax, you can get rid of gum disease, stomatitis, and chronic sore throat.
