14th November, 2007: Tea & Honey - Protecting Against Illness Mother Nature’s Way

Tea with honey does more than just soothe sore throats.  It also combats common illness causing bacteria like E. coli found in popular meats like turkey, chicken, hamburgers and hot dogs.  In fact, a recent study at Kansas State University (KSU) conducted with the Food Safety Consortium confirmed what many already know — Mother Nature knows best.  As opposed the chemicals routinely used to treat meat, the study found that extracts from green tea or jasmine tea mixed with wildflower honey were more effective in fighting the most common pathogens.  The more natural approach was also found to improve the shelf life of ready-to-eat meats and vegetables.  Tea & honey…Mother Nature’s way.
