Dr Peter Molan, known for the identification of manuka honey as a particularly valuable antibiotic/antibacterial honey, has a Web page now. Its a fairly long address (aren't they all...) so you may want to cut and paste it if your mail programme won't launch your Web browser: http://quasar.sci.waikato.ac.nz/Subjects/Biology/Honey/honey_page.html It has some excellent material on healing properties of honey, complete with all the scientific references you'd expect from a scientist of Dr Molan's calibre!
