Raw honey isn’t sterile, it teems with beneficial lactic acid bacteria and microbes from both bees and flowers. These microbes aren’t random: research shows bees host stable lactic acid bacteria communities that have co-evolved with them, shaping health and immunity over millions of years. (Anderson et al., PLoS ONE, 2012)
Your body isn’t just “you”, it’s a community of microbes shaped over billions of years.
We are meta-organisms, more microbial than human and our microbial world influences immunity, metabolism and even gene expression. (Turnbaugh et al., Nature, 2007; Qin et al., Nature, 2010).
When we eat raw honey:
We take in trace bacterial companions, we feed ancient microbial lineages, we nourish a microbiome shaped by ecological connection, not isolation.
Raw, unadulterated honey contains microbial intellingence.
Modern life, processed food has disrupted these microbial ties.
It may sound mystical, but the reality is simple: our body carries billions of years of biological memory.
Whether this ancestral wisdom remain dormant or comes alive is influenced by what we nourish ourselves with and what we choose to avoid.
Raw, unheated honey preserves live microbes from bees and flowers that may interact with our own gut ecology (Bogdanov, Journal of Apicultural Research, 2016).
It's living nature, microbes, flowers, bees and billions of years of connection in one drop.
Feed your microbiome.
Remember your roots.
