...I find apitherapy a difficult subject.  I've had results in my own body from stings (sore shoulder) and from eating propolis ...enough that I will continue with this stuff myself.

At the markets, we get customers who want us to tell them which honey is "best" for the problems they are having...I refuse to answer such questions myself, and if pressed, simply tell them which honey on the table has the lowest moisture content, and therefore has more of the contents of honey that are not simply "water".

I've attended several apitherapy talks (once the speaker, who sells "apitherapy honey", told the audinece that "beekeepers don't get cancer"...there were at lest 3 longtime beekeepers in the audience that had cancer...and at least one of them had less than a year to live).

I've never found anyone that I would want to have present a program at a meeting that I was in charge of....I wish there were.
