Actually, you have it right here, with beekeepers. If there are
beekeepers with pollen allergies and they eat their own honey, then the
use of honey for treating allergies is suspect. If no beekeepers have
pollen allergies, then it works just fine.

I have many people ask me for my unheated honey to treat allergies. But
I note that it has done nothing when it comes to ragweed and me.
