Description
This Raw Greek Carob Honey is a beautiful, deep-tasting tree honey, with a warm chocolatey flavour and a hint of smoky wood. We've been searching for a good quality Carob honey for a while and we are truly delighted to discover this Carob Honey from Kostas.
It comes from Carob trees on the Island of Crete. The bees feed on carob trees in the Mediterranean to produce this honey, different from the blossom honeys as it has a more complex and prominent taste.It also crystallises more quickly than some other tree honeys, and it has a lighter colour.
Colour: This particular honey is a medium brown amber shade when runny and turns to a creamy light brown when set.
Where does the honey come from? This variety of carob honey comes from the isle of Crete in Greece, a largely untouched, wild and diverse landscape.
What about the plant the honey comes from? The carob tree is a flowering evergreen tree. It is actually a member of the pea family and produces beautiful tasting legumes which are often used as a low fat chocolate substitute. The trees are male and female and occasionally hermaphroditic Only the female trees produce the legumes. The trees flower in the late summer, early autumn. It is one of the last honeys of the year.
Who produces the honey? Asterios is one of the most genuine people you could ever meet. His aim is always to present to us the highest quality honey possible. He is luckily enough to have an amazing network of fellow artisan Greek beekeepers. This honey is bought to you by one such beekeeper, Kostas from Crete. For Asterios and Kostas beekeeping is an art and they are excited that their honey will be appreciated in the UK.
Common Uses: Carob honey is particularly good to use in recipes such as: glazes for meats, cakes, flapjacks, breads and teas.
Carob Honey Facts: Carob honey is a unique variety which is quite rare and difficult to find. It has beautiful dark amber colour and delicious chocolatey overtones.
Please know that raw honey does crystallise and this is a natural process that occurs mainly due to the natural glucose in raw honey.
Description
This Raw Greek Oak and Chestnut Honeycomb is perfect for those who love dark, strong honeys. Honeycomb is the best way to eat honey because honeycomb is the honey exactly as it was in the hive. It contains all the good nutritious bits - such as bee bread (fermented pollen mixed with honey and enzymes), royal jelly and propolis in the cells.
More on the flavour: This is a beautiful combination of the flavours of Oak and Chestnut honey. It starts with a dark, black tea tannin-like foretaste, easing into a very sweet and delicious main taste. It has a certain bitterness along with caramel notes coming in around an essence of deep, black raisins and prunes, leaving a slightly ferrous tingle on the tongue.
Oak honey is a very deep and rich tasting tree honey; it has a fruitiness as well as a deep woody flavour. Tree honey tends to be dark, have a stronger flavour and are less likely to set due to a relatively low glucose content.
Chestnut honey is a beautiful, deep-flavoured variety. It has slight caramel notes as well as a deep sweetness and a touch of bitterness too. The nutty flavour of the chestnut carries through as well as a taste a little similar to maple syrup but slightly more rich and malty. Chestnut can lend a bitter taste to honey but not always, it is known to be one of the most varied types of honey in taste, differing greatly from one area to another and from one season to the next.
The two together, Oak and Chestnut, work beautifully.
You will find it a little chewy to eat - but you can swallow the wax, it is perfectly safe.
Colour: This particular honeycomb is a dark honey going ruby-red in the light.
Where does the honeycomb come from? This honeycomb comes from a National Park in Greece, a truly wild and uncontaminated place. The location is near the village of Byronia, Serres, a small village at the foot of Mount Kerkini, close by a lake and above the river Strymon. It is within the Kerkini National Park that includes Lake Kerkini and the river Strymon, and runs from the lake to the Greek-Bulgarian border. The national park is one of the most important wetlands in Europe in terms of biodiversity and it is part of a big European network of nature protection areas. Because of the diverse ecosystem and the minimal human intervention, this is a true wilderness area for the bees to collect pollen and make splendid honey.
Who produces this honeycomb? Asterios is one of the most genuine people you could ever meet. His aim is always to present to us the highest quality honey possible. He is lucky enough to have an amazing network of fellow artisan Greek beekeepers. This honey is bought to you by one such beekeeper from Asterios' network, called Vangelis. For Asterios and Vangelis beekeeping is an art and they are excited that their honey will be appreciated in the UK.

Colour and texture may vary by batch
Flavour reflects seasonal and floral variations
Natural pollen remains present
Variation is a natural characteristic of raw honey.

If you were deprived of this ONE mineral, it would not be long before you develop diabetes. You’d be well on your way to developing nerve damage, loss of eyesight, kidney damage, and even dialysis, amputation or Alzheimer's disease as it progresses! What mineral is it? CHROMIUM! A mineral we only need in microgram doses per day can make the difference between health and disease. 30 mcg per day is what we are told is adequate intake, but did you know that higher doses around 1000 mcg have been found to be supportive of BRAIN health?* Yes, you heard that right! Chromium can help keep you mentally sharp as you age! Brain fog, sluggishness, and fatigue all come with consuming too many sugars and carbohydrates.But why? Did you know that the brain is EXTREMELY sensitive to elevations in blood sugar? In fact, there is a term now used to describe a BRAIN ON SUGAR, called TYPE III Diabetes. And Type III Diabetes is linked to none other than Alzheimer’s disease!
• If that doesn’t leave you passing on that cookie, consider this: Every 66 seconds, an American will develop Alzheimer's disease. By the year 2050, that number is expected to double to one every 33 seconds.** • Dementia affects 50 million people worldwide and this number will triple by 2050. ***So, how can chromium help?In 1957 a scientist discovered a substance in the body called GLUCOSE TOLERANCE FACTOR (GTF), and chromium is the active component of GTF. GTF enhances the action of insulin, so that glucose can be transported into the cells and burned for energy. Thus chromium enhances INSULIN sensitivity and blood sugar regulation. When the brain loses insulin sensitivity, structural and degenerative changes occur in the brain! The powerful combination of molecular hydrogen and chromium pack a punch to support the brain, promote a healthy, lean body composition, and support the millions of people dealing with metabolic dysfunction.

The adrenal glands (also known as suprarenal glands) are the star-shaped endocrine glands that sit on top of the kidneys.* The adrenal glands produce a variety of hormones that are essential to life.* Such as hormones that help to balance your blood sugar, which helps the body to manage daily ebbs and flows of energy.* When blood sugar drops, the adrenals release hormones that cause the blood sugar to rise, and thus increases energy.* The adrenals also release hormones when we're under stress, also releasing energy.* This is the "fight or flight" response from the days when we needed to run away from wild animals, which now kicks in for our modern everyday stressors, such as traffic jams, arguments, and work pressures.
But, when the adrenal glands are not functioning optimally, we can develop a condition that is known as adrenal fatigue, or adrenal exhaustion.* Adrenal fatigue / adrenal exhaustion most often occurs in folks after bouts of intense or prolonged stress, but it can also arise during or after acute or chronic infections, especially respiratory infections such as influenza, bronchitis or pneumonia.* And its symptoms can include excessive fatigue to non-refreshing sleep, salty & sweet food cravings, poor digestion, allergies, low stamina and more.*
Adrenal Vita-Amino Complex™ was designed to help support tired adrenals. It contains adrenal glandulars with amino-acid secretagogues (substances that cause other substances to be secreted) supported by the proper balance of vitamins and minerals to help bring harmony and balance to tired adrenals.*
Adrenal Vita-Amino Complex™ provides:
Adrenal Substance: Glandular’s are whole organs that are dried at low temperatures and ground up and put into nutritional supplements.* In Europe they are used for the support of the particular organ related to the glandular.* Glandular therapy is one of the oldest forms of supplement therapies, dating back thousands of years, having been used by the ancient Hindus, Egyptians and Greeks and most recently re-popularized by the Swiss and Germans.*
Glandular tissues can be rich sources of nutrients, enzymes and other factors that support specific gland-related metabolism and physiological function.*
Amino-Acid Complex: l-phenylalanine, l-tyrosine, aspartic acid and methionine is a blend of the essential amino acids necessary to help the adrenals make their own growth hormones.*
Vitamins: Adrenal Vita-Amino Complex™ contains the vitamins and minerals that are essential for adrenal function and assist in the making of adrenal secretions.*

I've been using CREON for nearly four years but it's currently unavailable in the UK. My Doctor can't even prescribe an alternative as these are also out of stock. I was sent a link for the Grassfed Beef Pancreas & I can confirm it's doing a wonderful job! Thank God for this company!! It has allayed my anxiety & I shall be buying it moving forward. I HIGHLY recommend & give 5*.
Ok I love colostrum and the immune tree are brilliant for me ! I spend an awful lot on supplements but I always have my immune tree colostrum and it definitely improves my immune system , I suffer from Addison's ( major and total adrenal insufficiency) I don't produce any of my own cortisol and it's exhausting even with replacing with hydrocortisone as it's a fixed dose three times daily and not my body regulating the dose. However since I began to take colostrum every day I have indeed noticed some increase in stamina and definitely improved immunity. I'd highly recommend this colostrum to any one and everyone wanting that extra boost for the immune system.
