“9 oral benefits of honey

All this research into honey has shown it has some surprising oral health benefits. Below are nine ways honey can benefit the mouth and gums:

1. Honey exerts antibacterial effects on nearly 60 species and prevents the development of resistant strains of bacteria.
2. Manuka honey is effective in preventing the growth of biofilm organisms, reducing the production of acids, and reducing gingivitis.
3. Randomized controlled trials indicate honey helps prevent dental caries and gingivitis following orthodontic treatment.
4. A double-blind randomized controlled trial demonstrated that manuka honey and other raw honeys are almost as effective as chlorhexidine as a mouthwash.
5. Manuka honey controls odor and inflammation in wounds secondary to squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.
6. Honey has cytotoxic effects on cultured oral squamous cell carcinomas.
7. Multiple reports indicate honey is beneficial in the treatment of radiation-induced mucositis in people undergoing curative radiotherapy for their head and neck cancer.
8. Honey is helpful in treating dry mouth in people undergoing radiation treatment for their head and neck cancer.
9. Honey enhances wound healing in nonhealing or recurrent wounds in the head and neck area after radiotherapy.”

It ain't just sugar: 9 oral benefits of honey

Dr. Alvin Danenberg thought his dental colleagues were going to laugh him out of the profession when he suggested that raw honey could be used to brush teeth. Well, the research is clear: Honey ain't just sugar. Danenberg details the science behind the oral and overall health benefits of honey.

“A basic meaning of homeopathic medicine is the support of the organism's ability to heal itself; the essence of allopathy is that the physician fights "a disease" to cure the patient, e.g., by cutting out tumors or killing germs.

Confidence in the organism's essential rationality led the doctors with a homeopathic orientation to see a fever as part of a recuperative process, while their allopathic opponents sometimes saw fever as the essence of the sickness to be cured. Homeopaths concentrated on the nature of the patient; allopaths concentrated on a disease entity in itself, and were likely to ignore the patient's idiosyncrasies and preferences.” -Ray Peat

‘"...It was around 15 years ago that Dr. Matt Zirwas, an Ohio-based dermatologist, first noticed something curious about the people he was treating at his clinic. “The older patients I was seeing [who had] lots of sun damage and lots of skin cancer would be very robust, very energetic people,” he says. These were people who, apart from their skin cancers, tended to be in excellent health and taking very few prescription drugs. “But then I’d see these people who had beautiful skin and no cancers, and they were very low-energy and taking medications for all these different health problems,” he recalls. He began to wonder whether exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light, mostly from the sun, had more health benefits than he and other experts realized.’

Avoiding Sunlight May Be As Bad For Health As Smoking A Pack A Day

“Introduction Basal-cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of skin cancer. Incidence of BCC is rising rapidly worldwide associated with a significant increase in health care costs. Various treatment options are available for patients diagnosed with BCC ranging from surgery, electrodessication, radiation, photodynamic therapy to non-invasive therapeutic approaches. Traditionally being used for aromatherapy, based on the abundance of highly volatile, aromatic compounds, frankincense essential oil prepared by hydrodistillation of Boswellia sacra gum resins, also possesses anti-cancer activity that can potentially provide non-surgical and non-invasive treatment option for BCC by topical application. This case report discusses the management of BCC of the skin using frankincense ( Boswellia sacra ) essential oil. Case report We present a case of a male patient, with two foci (arm and chest) of BCC, treated with local and topical application of frankincense essential oil several times a day, for a period of 20 weeks. Biopsies were performed before and after frankincense essential oil treatment. Pathological study demonstrated total resolution of the BCC on the arm and substantial resolution in the BCC of the chest after treatment. Significant increase in apoptotic cells was observed in the residual carcinoma in the chest. Topical application of frankincense essential oil did not cause redness, swelling, erosion, crusts, vesicles, squamae, itching, tingling, or any other local or systemic side effects in this patient. Conclusion Local application of frankincense essential oil may provide a non-surgical treatment alternative, with no or minimal side effect for carcinoma in situ , minimally invasive carcinoma and pre-cancerous conditions such as actinic keratosis.”

“The products with the longest list of "chemicals of concern" included Glade Clean Linen air freshener, Lestoil Heavy Duty Multi-Purpose spray, HDX glass cleaner, and Scott's Liquid Gold wood cleaner.

For people working in the cleaning industry, repeated exposure to these chemicals can have serious health implications. A study published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine in 2020 found that cleaners have a 50 percent greater risk of developing asthma and a 43 percent increased risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, likely due to their exposure to these chemicals.”

“One study in 2018 found that inhaling household cleaning products could be as damaging as smoking a 20-pack of cigarettes a day in terms of its impacts on women's lungs—this study specifically looked at a cohort of women so it is unclear if the same effects would be seen in men. Children's health may also be at risk, especially during the early stages of development.”

Toxicologists discover popular cleaning products can increase cancer risk

"This study is a wake-up call for consumers, researchers and regulators," toxicologist Alexis Temkin said.

“…studies shows a consistent inverse association between higher consumption of dairy products and total milk and the risk of CRC at all sites. Low-fat milk consumption was associated with a decreased risk of CRC, although this inverse association was restricted to the colon. This systematic review and meta-analysis is the first to evaluate the association between subtypes of milk and CRC risk. An inverse association between cheese consumption and the risk of CRC, particularly proximal colon cancer, was also found. No harmful effects associated with the consumption of any type of dairy product, including whole-fat dairy products, were observed. Therefore, it seems reasonable to claim that the consumption of dairy foods, especially low-fat milk and cheese, might be related to a lower risk of CRC.”

“Saffron is high in antioxidants, which help neutralize harmful free radicals. Free radical damage has been linked to chronic diseases, such as cancer (11Trusted Source).

In test-tube studies, saffron and its compounds have been shown to selectively kill colon cancer cells or suppress their growth, while leaving healthy cells unharmed (12Trusted Source).

This effect also applies to skin, bone marrow, prostate, lung, breast, cervix, and several other cancer cells (13Trusted Source).

Test-tube studies have also found that crocin — the main antioxidant in saffron — may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs (14Trusted Source”

“Excess Thiamine May Help Tumor Growth, Research Shows
Normally, cells produce ribose using a pathway that requires oxygen. Consequently, it is known as the oxidative pathway.
Cancer cells appear to produce ribose using a second pathway, one that doesn’t require oxygen. It is known as the transketolase, or TK, pathway. Transketolase is an enzyme that allows this chemical reaction to happen rapidly and without need of oxygen.
“The majority -- over 70 percent -- of ribose for DNA/RNA synthesis in tumor cells that have been studied comes from the TK pathway,” said Boros. “Nobody expected this pathway to be involved in this process so intensively.”
Furthermore, thiamine is key to that process: the vitamin is a co-factor that is necessary for the transketolase enzyme to work, said Boros. “It’s a thiamine-dependent reaction.”
The ideal solution is to provide thiamine to the patient but deny it to the tumor.”

“D-mannose is being increasingly used as an effective alternative to antibiotics for various conditions. A simple sugar, d-mannose is found naturally in high amounts in many fruits such as apples, oranges, and peaches, as well as blueberries and cranberries. Vegetables, including green beans, cabbage, and broccoli, are also a common source. In addition, d-mannose occurs naturally in some cells in the human body and is thought to be a prebiotic, because consumption of d-mannose stimulates and fosters the growth of good bacteria in the digestive tract.”

I have upped my curry consumption lately, just for fun, and it seems those India foods are doing something right. They slow cook their foods well in a more stew consistency, instead frying their meats to a carcinogenic brown. They cook in clay pots as well, lowering their heavy metal load…

“Many Indian recipes require a lot of time to prepare; some can even be cooked overnight. This is why their meat is so tender and melts in the mouth – it is cooked slowly to retain its nutrients and juices. These techniques require expertise and passion; not only is the cooking method more complicated, but the ingredients in the dishes themselves are too.”

“Evidence is growing that honey may have the potential to be anticancer agent through several mechanisms (Figure 3). Though the full mechanism is yet to be fully understood, studies have shown that honey has anticancer effect through its interference with multiple cell-signaling pathways, such as inducing apoptosis, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, and antimutagenic pathways. Honey modulates the body immune system. There are still many unanswered questions; why sugar is carcinogenic, while honey which is basically sugar has anticarcinogenic properties.”
