جسم کے جلنے کے معمولی زخم کو بھی شہد سے آرام ملتا ہے، فوٹو فائل



نیویارک: اسلامی دنیا میں شہد کو ہمیشہ سے مختلف بیماریوں کے علاج کے طور پر استعمال کیا جاتا رہا ہے لیکن اب ترقی یافتہ معاشروں میں امریکی اور برطانوی ڈاکٹرز بھی اس کی خوبیوں کے معترف ہوگئے ہیں اور امریکا میں اسے کئی بیماریوں کا آسان اور بہترین علاج قرار دیا گیا ہے۔


امریکی یونیورسٹی کے پروفیسر نے شہد پر کی گئی تحقیق کے بعد اس بات کا اعتراف کیا ہے کہ شہد ایک زبردست دوا اور اینٹی بیکٹریل ہے جودیگر قدرتی اجزا سے مل کر انسان کے مدافعتی نظام کو مضبوط بناتی ہے جب کہ شہد میں کئی بیماریوں کا علاج بھی موجود ہے تاہم 9 بیماریاں ایسی ہیں جن کا سدباب شہد کے استعمال سے کیا جاسکتا ہے۔


چہرے کے داغ: چہرے پر موجود داغ دھبے دور کرنے کے لے شہد بہترین دوا ہے اس لیے ایک چمچہ شہد اور ایک چمچہ زیتون کا تیل ملا کر چہرے پر 20 منٹ تک لگائیں اور پھر اسے گرم پانی سے دھو لیں۔ ڈاکٹر ہاورڈ سوبل کا کہنا ہے کہ اس طرح شہد ایک کلینزنگ ایجٹ کا کام کرتاہے اور چہرے سے داغ کا باعث بننے والے عناصر کو جذب کرلیتا ہے۔


دل کی جلن کا علاج: ڈاکٹر روحانی کا کہنا ہے کہ دل کی جلن کے علاج کے لیے ایک چمچہ یا 5 ملی میٹر شہد غذائی نالی کو معدے میں پیدا ہونے والی تیزابیت سے محفوظ کرتا ہے کیوں کہ اتنے شہد میں 21 کلوریز یا 5.71 گرام کاربوہائیڈریٹ پائے جاتے ہیں تاہم اسے ایک ہفتہ تک استعمال کیا جائے اور جو لوگ شوگر کے مریض ہیں انہیں اپنے ڈاکٹر کے مشورہ سے اسے استعمال کرنا چاہیئے۔


منہ چھالوں اور جلن کا علاج: سعودی عرب کی سلمان بن عبدالعزیز یونیورسٹی میں 2014 میں ہونے والی تحقیق میں شہد کو منہ کے چھالوں اور جلن کے لیے بہترین دوا قرار دیا ہے گیا ۔ تحقیق کے مطابق روئی کو پانی میں بھگو کر چھالوں کو صاف کریں اور پھر تھوڑی مقدار میں شہد کو روئی کی مدد سےچھالوں پر دن میں کئی مرتبہ لگائیں اس سے صرف 4 دن میں چھالے غائب ہوں جائیں گے۔


کھانسی میں مفید: کئی محققین نے شہد کو کسی بھی قسم کے کھانسی کے سیرپ کے مقابلے میں کھانسی کا بہترین علاج قرار دیا ہے کیونکہ شہد میں شامل ڈی مل سینٹ گلے کو کھانسی کے جراثیم سے محفوظ کرتا ہے جب کہ کیفین پھیپھڑوں کو صاف کرتا ہے جس سے سانس کا عمل بہتر ہوجاتا ہے اسی لیے ڈیڑھ چمچہ کافی میں اڑھائی چمچے شہد کے ملا کر اسے سات اونس گرم پانی میں حل کر لیں اور دن میں 3 مرتبہ استعمال کریں۔


ایگزیما اور خارش کا علاج: اکثر لوگ ایکزیما، جلد کا سرخی مائل ہوجانا اور خارش جیسی بیماریوں کا شکار ہوجاتے ہیں لیکن شہد کے استعمال سے ان بیماریوں کا باعث بننے والے بیکٹریا اسٹیفی لائیکوکس کا خاتمہ ہوجاتا ہے۔ امریکی میگزین میں شائع ہونے والی تحقیق کے مطابق 30 ایسے مریضوں کا شہد سے علاج کیا گیا اور انہیں ایک دن کے وقفے سے 3 گھنٹے تک شہد لگایا گیا تو حیرت انگیز طور پر صرف ایک ہفتے میں وہ اس بیماری سے نجات پا گئے۔


نزلے کا علاج: امریکی جرنل آرکائیو میڈیکل ریسرچ کے مطابق شہد نزلہ (انفلونزا) کے جراثیم کو مارنے میں اہم کردار ادا کرتا ہے اور ساتھ ہی انسانی مدافعتی نظام کو مضبوط کرتا ہےجب کہ شہد نزلے کے بگس کو مارنے کے لیے جنگی سیل روانہ کرتا ہے جس سے نزلے کے جراثیم ہمیشہ کے لیے ختم ہوجاتے ہیں۔


بے خوابی کا علاج: شہد کا ایک چمچہ 8 اونس گرم دودھ اور ایک ٹکڑا دارچینی میں ملائیں اور پی کر سو جائیں آپ کو پرسکون نیند کا لطف اٹھا سکیں گے۔


جلنے کا علاج: 2008 میں کیے گئے مطالعہ میں تسلیم کیا گیا ہے کہ جسم کے جلنے کے معمولی زخم کو بھی شہد سے آرام ملتا ہے۔ ڈاکٹرز کا کہنا ہے کہ شہد میں بیکـٹریل سیل سے پیدا ہونے والی نمی اور ہائیڈروجن پیروآکسائیڈ جلنے کے زخم کا باعث بننے والے بیکٹریا کو تباہ کردیتا ہے اور زخم مندمل کردیتا ہے۔


کٹنے اور چھلنے کے زخم: کٹنے کے زخم کو اچھی طرح صاف کر کے پٹی کرنے سے پہلے شہد لگا دیں جو زخم کو بیکٹریال انفکیشن سے بچائے گا۔ میڈیکل جریدے مائیکروبائیالوجی کے مطابق 2012 میں کی گئی تحقیق کے مطابق شہد نہ صرف زخموں کو بھرتا ہے بلکہ انہیں انفیکشن سے بھی بچاتا ہے۔


ڈاکٹرز کا کہنا ہے کہ شہد کی یہ زبردست خصوصیات اس میں موجود گلوکوز، اسکورز اور پھلوں میں پائی جانے والی شکر کی وجہ سے ہے جو کسی بھی خوردبینی جرثوموں سے پانی کو نکال لیتی ہے اور اسے بے جان کردیتی ہے۔

[h=1]Liquid Gold: 7 Health Benefits Of Honey That Could Heal Your Whole Body[/h] Mar 17, 2015 09:00 AM By Lizette Borreli @lizcelineb

Honey contains a treasure chest of hidden nutritional and medicinal value for centuries. The sweet golden liquid from the beehive is a popular kitchen staple loaded with antibacterial and antifungal properties that has been used since the early days of Egyptian tombs.

Honey’s scientific super powers contribute to its vastly touted health benefits for the whole body. The healthy natural sweetener offers many nutritional benefits depending on its variety. Raw honey is the unpasteurized version of commonly used honey and only differs in its filtration, which helps extend its shelf life. A tablespoon of raw honey contains 64 calories, is fat-free, cholesterol-free, and sodium-free, says the National Honey Board. Its composition is roughly 80 percent carbohydrates, 18 percent water, and two percent vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.
Typically, honey is sweet but can be cruel to infants. Spores of Clostridium botulinum bacteria — found in dirt and dust, which can contaminate honey — may lead to infant botulism and produce a toxin inside the body that can cause muscle weakness and breathing problems. The Mayo Clinic recommends waiting until after 12 months of age to give infants honey; consumption is safe for older adults and kids, since they have a mature digestive system that can handle the spores.
Consume honey responsibly and reap the numerous health benefits of this liquid gold.
[h=2]1. Alleviates Allergies[/h] Honey’s anti-inflammatory effects and ability to soothe coughs has led to the belief it can also reduce seasonal allergy symptoms. Although there are no clinical studies proving its efficacy, Dr. Matthew Brennecke, a board certified naturopathic doctor practicing at the Rocky Mountain Wellness Center in Fort Collins, Colo., told Medical Daily in an email, "A common theory is that honey acts like a natural vaccine." It contains small amounts of pollen, which if the body is exposed to small amounts of it, it can trigger an immune response that produces antibodies to the pollen. "After repeated exposure, you should build up these antibodies and the body should become accustomed to their presence so that less histamine is released, resulting in a lesser allergic response."
[h=2]2. All-Natural Energy Drink[/h] Honey is an excellent source of all-natural energy at just 17 grams of carbohydrates per tablespoon. This natural unprocessed sugar — fructose and glucose — directly enter the bloodstream and can deliver a quick boost of energy. The rise in blood sugar acts as a short-term energy source for your workout, especially in longer endurance exercises.
Brennecke said there is a con to adding honey to your workout. “If your goal in exercising is to increase muscle mass, working out on an empty stomach first thing in the morning is the way to go. When your body is in starvation mode (upon waking in morning), and you start exercising, you release insulin-like growthfactor-1 (IGF-1), which will help you build bulk,” he said. Brennecke does warn this only works when blood sugars are low.
[h=2]3. Boosts Memory[/h] The sweet nectar is loaded in antioxidants that may help prevent cellular damage and loss within the brain. A 2011 study published in Menopause found a daily spoonful of Malaysian honey may boost postmenopausal women’s memory, which can provide an alternative therapy for the hormone-related intellectual decline. After four months of taking 20 grams of honey a day, the women were more likely to have better short-term memory than their counterparts who took hormone pills.
Honey’s ability to help the body absorb calcium, according to Brennecke, helps aid brain health. The brain needs calcium in order to process thought and make decisions. “As our populations continue to get older and older, the likelihood of dementia setting in because of poor intake of vitamins and minerals continues to get higher and higher,” he said.
[h=2]4. Cough Suppressant[/h] Honey can be the all-natural cure when it comes to pesky colds. A persistent cough that won’t go away can easily be remedied with two teaspoons of honey, according to a 2012 study published in the journal Pediatrics. Children between the ages of 1 and 5 with nighttime cough due to colds coughed less frequently when they received two teaspoons of honey 30 minutes before bed.
The golden liquid’s thick consistency helps coat the throat while the sweet taste is believed to trigger nerve endings that protect the throat from incessant coughing. Honey is believed to be as effective as the common cough suppressant ingredient dextromethorphan. It can be used in treating upper respiratory tract infections.
[h=2]5. Sleep Aid[/h] Honey can be a health aid for sleepless nights. Similar to sugar, honey can cause a rise in insulin and release serotonin — a neurotransmitter that improves mood and happiness. “The body converts serotonin into melatonin, a chemical compound that regulates the length and the quality of sleep,” Rene Ficek, registered dietitian and lead dietitian nutritionist at Seattle Sutton's Healthy Eating in Chicago, Ill., told Medical Daily in an email.
Moreover, honey also contains several amino acids, including tryptophan that is commonly associated with turkey. Honey’s steady rise in insulin, according to Brennecke, causes the tryptophan in honey to enter the brain, where it’s then converted into serotonin and then into melatonin, which is a sleep aid. This hormone is responsible for regulating sleep and wake cycles.
[h=2]6. Treats Dandruff[/h] Honey can bring temporary relief to the scalp by targeting dandruff. A 2001 study published in the European Journal of Medical Research found applying honey diluted with 10 percent warm water to problem areas and leaving it on for three hours before rinsing led to itch relief and no scaling within a week. Skin lesions healed within two weeks and patients even showed an improvement in hair loss. The patients did not relapse even after six months of use.
Thanks to honey's antibacterial and antifungal properties, it can also treat seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff, which are often caused by an overgrowth of fungus. Moreover, “honey also has anti-inflammatory properties, which address the redness and itching on the scalp,” Brennecke said.
[h=2]7. Treats Wounds And Burns[/h] Honey is a natural antibiotic that can act both internally and externally. It can be used as a conventional treatment for wounds and burns by disinfecting wounds and sores from major species of bacteria such as methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). A 2005 study published in the British Journal of Surgery found all but one of patients who suffered from wounds and leg ulcers showed remarkable improvement after applying a topical application of honey.
Dr. Diane Radford, a breast surgical oncologist in St. Louis, Mo., told Medical Daily in an email, Manuka honey has antibacterial properties for wound healing. “The precursor for the active antibacterial agent methylglyoxal (MGO) comes from the nectar of mānuka trees. A specialized research unit at the University of Waikato is looking into the conversion to the active product,” she said.
Honey has been utilized for its medicinal properties for over 2,000 years and continues its legacy as a multipurpose health aid.

آپ کو شاہد پتہ ہو کہ میڈیکل گریڈ کا شہد بھی ملتا ہے جس میں اینٹی بایوٹک سب سے زیادہ ہوتا ہے
اور اس پر بقایدہ رسرچ بھی کی گئی ہے

ذرا منوکا ہنی سرچ کرنا آپ کو پتہ لگے گا


اس کے علاوہ حیران کن بات بات یہ ہے شہد کی مکھی کا پولن بہت اچھا ہوتا ہے

اس کے علاوہ شہد کے چھتے میں ایک خاص جگہ ہوتی ہے ، جس کو پروپولس کہتے ہیں ، جس ور مکھی آ کر بیٹھتی ہے ، اپنے پاؤں اور پروں کو ڈس انفیکٹ کرتی ہے
پھر اپنی گجھ پر جاتی ہے

یہ پروپولس سب سے اچھا اینٹی بایوٹک ہوتا ہے
یہ علیحدہ بھی مل جاتا ہے
جتنی شہد کے بارے میں باتیں اور ریسرچ غیروں نے کر لی ہے، اتنی تو ہمارے لوگوں کو بھی پتہ
ہاں ہر دو نمبر چیز بنانے میں ہم لوگ بہت آگے ہیں

Manuka honey is produced in New Zealand by bees that pollinate the native manuka bush. Advocates say it treats wound infections and other conditions.
WebMD takes a look at what the science says about using manuka honey as a medicine.
[h=3]Healing Power of Honey[/h] Honey has been used since ancient times to treat multiple conditions. It wasn't until the late 19th century that researchers discovered that honey has natural antibacterial qualities.

Honey protects against damage caused by bacteria. Some honey also stimulates production of special cells that can repair tissue damaged by infection. In addition, honey has an anti-inflammatory action that can quickly reduce pain and inflammation once it is applied.
But not all honey is the same. The antibacterial quality of honey depends on the type of honey as well as when and how it's harvested. Some kinds of honey may be 100 times more potent than others.
[h=3]Components of Manuka Honey[/h] Hydrogen peroxide is a component of honey. It gives most honey its antibiotic quality. But some types of honey, including manuka honey, also have other components with antibacterial qualities.
Another antibacterial component in manuka honey is methylglyoxal (MG). MG is a compound found in most types of honey, but usually only in small quantities.
In manuka honey, MG comes from the conversion of another compound -- dihydroxyacetone -- that is found in high concentration in the nectar of manuka flowers.
MG is thought to give manuka honey some of its antibacterial power. The higher the concentration of MG, the stronger the antibiotic effect. But, there may also be other compounds involved in the medicinal effect of manuka honey.
Honey producers have developed a scale for rating the potency of manuka honey. The rating is called UMF, which stands for Unique Manuka Factor.
The UMF rating is thought to correspond with the concentration of MG and other compounds. Not all honey labeled as manuka honey contains significant levels of antibacterial factors. To be considered potent enough to be therapeutic, manuka honey needs a minimum rating of 10 UMF. Honey at or above that level is marketed as "UMF Manuka Honey" or "Active Manuka Honey."

[h=3]How Manuka Honey Is Used[/h]
The main medical use for manuka honey is on top of a wound. It is generally used for treating minor wounds and burns.

Manuka honey is also marketed for use in many other conditions. These include:

• Preventing and treating cancer
• Reducing high cholesterol
• Reducing systemic inflammation
• Treating diabetes
  
• Treating eye, ear, and sinus infections
• Treating gastrointestinal problems

But the evidence is limited on whether or not manuka honey is effective for these conditions.






The honey used to treat wounds is a medical-grade honey. It is specially sterilized and prepared as a dressing. So the jar of manuka honey in the pantry should not be considered part of a first aid kit. Wounds and infections should be seen and treated by a health care professional.
[h=3]What the Science Says About Manuka Honey[/h] Several recent studies show manuka honey is effective when used on top of wounds and leg ulcers. Studies also show it's effective in fighting infection and promoting healing.
But not all studies show that it helps to heal ulcers. And there is concern that manuka honey may actually delay healing in people who have ulcers related to diabetes.
The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database lists honey as being "possibly effective" to treat burns and wounds. The Cochrane Review notes that honey may shorten healing times in mild burns compared with traditional dressings. However, honey dressings do not increase leg ulcer healing at 12 weeks even when used with compression wraps.
Another recent study suggests that manuka honey may be effective in preventing gingivitis and other periodontal disease by reducing the buildup of plaque. And in 2010, the scientific steering committee of the National Cancer Institute approved a proposal for the use of manuka honey for the reduction of inflammation of the esophagus associated with chemotherapy.
Another possible benefit of honey is that, unlike antibiotics, it has not been reported to cause development of resistant bacteria. These so-called "superbugs" develop after repeated exposure to common antibiotics. They require special antibiotics to treat them.
So far, studies have not shown manuka honey to be effective for treating high cholesterol or balancing the bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.
Also, no major studies have looked at the effect of manuka honey on cancer, diabetes, or fungal infections.


[h=3]Possible Side Effects of Manuka Honey
[/h]
The possible side effects of manuka honey are:

• Allergic reaction, especially in people who are allergic to bees
• Risk of a rise in blood sugar
• Possible interaction with certain chemotherapy drugs

Most of the studies on manuka honey have been with small numbers of patients. More studies are needed to decide if it is safe and effective for various medical conditions.

Propolis or bee glue is a resinous mixture that honey bees collect from tree buds, sap flows, or other botanical sources. It is used as a sealant for unwanted open spaces in the hive. Propolis is used for small gaps (approximately 6 millimeters (0.24 in) or less), while larger spaces are usually filled with beeswax. Its color varies depending on its botanical source, the most common being dark brown. Propolis is sticky at and above room temperature, 20 C (68 F). At lower temperatures, it becomes hard and very brittle.[SUP][citation needed][/SUP]

The composition of propolis varies from hive to hive, from district to district, and from season to season.[SUP][4][/SUP] Normally, it is dark brown in color, but it can be found in green, red, black, and white hues, depending on the sources of resin found in the particular hive area. Honey bees are opportunists, gathering what they need from available sources, and detailed analyses show that the chemical composition of propolis varies considerably from region to region, along with the vegetation. In northern temperate climates, for example, bees collect resins from trees, such as poplars and conifers (the biological role of resin in trees is to seal wounds and defend against bacteria, fungi and insects). "Typical" northern temperate propolis has approximately 50 constituents, primarily resins and vegetable balsams (50%), waxes (30%), essential oils (10%), and pollen (5%). Propolis also contains persistent lipophilic acaricides, a natural pesticide that deters mite infestations.[SUP][5][/SUP]

In neotropical regions, in addition to a large variety of trees, bees may also gather resin from flowers in the genera Clusia and Dalechampia, which are the only known plant genera that produce floral resins to attract pollinators.[SUP][6][/SUP] Clusia resin contains polyprenylated benzophenones.[SUP][7][/SUP][SUP][8][/SUP][SUP][9][/SUP] In some areas of Chile, propolis contains viscidone, a terpene from Baccharis shrubs,[SUP][10][/SUP] and in Brazil, naphthoquinone epoxide has recently been isolated from red propolis,[SUP][11][/SUP] and prenylated acids such as 4-hydroxy-3,5-diprenyl cinnamic acid have been documented.[SUP][12][/SUP] An analysis of propolis from Henan, China found sinapinic acid, isoferulic acid, caffeic acid, and chrysin, with the first three compounds demonstrating antibacterial properties.[SUP][13][/SUP] Also, Brazilian red propolis, largely derived from Dalbergia ecastaphyllum plant resin, has high relative percentages of the isoflavonoids 3-hydroxy-8,9-dimethoxypterocarpan and medicarpin.[SUP][14][/SUP] Other flavonoids commonly present include galangin and pinocembrin.[SUP][15][/SUP] Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is also a component of some varieties of propolis from New Zealand.[SUP][16][/SUP]
Occasionally, worker bees will even gather various caulking compounds of human manufacture, when the usual sources are more difficult to obtain. The properties of the propolis depend on the exact sources used by each individual hive; therefore any potential medicinal properties that may be present in one hive's propolis may be absent from another's, or from another sample in the same hive.
