Honey for Skin and Wounds

Camille Rourke

A jar of honey has outlasted nearly every dressing invented after it, and for good reason. This is the practical case for keeping it in your cabinet: what makes certain honeys effective against bacteria, how to apply it to a minor wound or burn without making a mess, which kinds actually work and which are just syrup, and where its limits are so you know when a wound needs more than a home remedy. Grounded, useful, and calm.
