Yes, Helen, it does work for a lot of people. Not all, but the pills don't work for all of us, either. It is a safe thing to try (be careful if you are diabetic) before going the pill route. I know our honey helps with the goldenrod season; both Sven and I used to be sneezing our heads off.

I have been told by a doctor buying local honey also may help with your allergies to trees, flowers etc. and also may help arthritis-has anyone else heard this? Some times I wonder if they know what they are talking about!

I think I will try using some-I go by two different private homes , that have signs up for local honey---it seems the older I get the more allergies I develop! I loved lilacs and used to pick and have the house full of them, now when they bloom I can't even breath I get so filled up! So honey could help me some , I hope! Thanks, 'Helen
