Honey, the sweet sweet insect
vomit that no one really seems to care is vomit, is far more insidious
that you though.
For eons we are eating the stuff, some think has medicinal properties,and in some instance it have been use to preserve bodies from decomposition as
possibly the case of
Alexander the Great.
But for traditional Chinese medicine, it far more
without further preamble i give you the mellified man.
The legend tells about altruistic old men from Arabia, knowing the end was near they decided to make the ultimate sacrifice to produce the sweetest of
medicine capable of treating, but not limited to:
Chills
Rheumatism
Palsy
Headaches
Fevers
Skin Complaints
Bowel disorders
Aches and Pains
Women's Troubles
Sickness of the Spirit
Ageing Complaints
Broken Bones
How was made?
it says in Arabia there are men 70 to 80 years old who are willing to give their bodies to save others. The subject does not eat food, he only
bathes and partakes of honey. After a month he only excretes honey (the urine and feces are entirely honey) and death follows. His fellow men place
him in a stone coffin full of honey in which he macerates. The date is put upon the coffin giving the year and month. After a hundred years the seals
are removed. A confection is formed which is used for the treatment of broken and wounded limbs. A small amount taken internally will immediately cure
the complaint. It is scarce in Arabia where it is called mellified man.
ummmm
So achieving death by eating honey to the point they crap honey the best medicine of all was attained. This wonderful remedy has been lost as modern
society self center individuals wont give their bodies to help others, therefore the mellifed man healing prowess are just a myth nowadays, but one
that I'm sure will make you use something else than honey to sweeten your tea for a few days.
