I've been keeping bees for twenty-five years and have not noticed any
change in my hay fever and asthma that I could connect with bees or honey.
Allergies change with age, changes in hormone balance, and changes in
medication,  I think.  And no two summers have the same weather.
      The plants I know I am allergic to are wind-pollinated, not
insect-pollinated.  Goldenrod has sticky pollen; bees and wasps collect it.
I do not think many people come into contact with goldenrod pollen.
