This book combines an ethnomedicine perspective with the tools now available for scientific analysis to present an integrated consideration of the beneficial properties of honey. The contributions explore honey's ancient pedigree in human society, its presence in Ayurvedic medicine and other traditional approaches to health, and its long use for wound management, as well as discussing honey's biochemical and anti-microbial properties. Other topics include the sources and other human uses of honey; its possible application with specific ailments like gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer; and its reintegration into modern medical practices, in conjunction with a renewed interest in and scientific exploration of traditional medicines in general. The editor chairs the Laboratory of Research on Local Animal Products at Ibn-Khaldoun University of Tiaret (Algeria) and writes about the bio-active properties of api-products.

The use of honey can be traced back to the Stone Age. Evidence can be found for its nutritional and medicinal use beginning with prehistoric and ancient civilizations. Currently, there is a resurgence of scientific interest in natural medicinal products, such as honey, by researchers, the medical community, and even the general public.Honey in Traditional and Modern Medicine provides a detailed compendium on the medical uses of honey, presenting its enormous potential and its limitations.

The book covers honey’s ethnomedicinal uses, chemical composition, and physical properties. It discusses the healing properties of honey, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. It also examines the botanical origin of honey, a critical factor in relation to its medicinal use, along with the complex subject of the varying composition of honey. Honey’s antibacterial qualities and other attributes are described in a chapter dedicated toLeptospermum, or Manuka honey, a unique honey with potential for novel therapeutic applications.

Chapters explore a variety of medicinal uses for honey, including its healing properties and use in burn and wound management. They review honey’s beneficial effects on medical conditions, such as gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, diabetic ulcers, and cancers as well as in pediatrics and animal health and wellness. The book also examines honey-based formulations, modern methods for chemical analysis of honey, and the history and reality of "mad honey." The final chapters cover honey in the food industry, as a nutrient, and for culinary use.

Recenzijas

"College-level health collections strong in pharmaceutical science and alternative medicine will find Honey in Traditional and Modern Medicine a specific, clear discussion of the medical uses of honey, and will want to include this in any health holding. From honey's chemical composition and healing properties to its botanical origins, description, and other qualities, chapters survey medicine uses and review its many beneficial effects, and provide an excellent overview filled with technical studies and references. A 'must' for any health holding."James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief, Midwest Book Review
