One of the biggest trends in food is not just to care about where your food comes from or what is in it but also to monitor what goes into your food before it goes into you. Wine makers are focusing on biodynamic practices, beef that is grass fed is all the rage and now, a similar concept comes to honey. Honey made from different pollens tastes differently and Life Mel honey is made by bees fed on a specially formulated diet which includes selected herbs such as Siberian Ginseng, Echinacea and Uncaria Tomentosa. Life Mel is not artificially treated and no ingredients are added after extraction from the hive. It recently went on sale at Harrods for £42 per pot and is said to be popular with celebrities such as Sienna Miller and Kylie Minogue for its health benefits.

After reading positive reports about LIFE-MEL I ordered a jar for my elderly mother who is going through the traumas of chimotherepy. £40.00 for a 113g jar seemed expensive, then they say to take 2 x 5g spoons per day. How? Do I order stock? seems outrageous to me. As a gourmet fashion item any price is fine, as a health benefit for the seriously ill.... I'll leave it to you to finish the sentence.
