yep, it's kinda cool, my vet of 20 some years started using honey in her practice. sounds off, but it's not, and she has been educating me on the benefits of antibacterial and healing properties of honey in her practice. let's say she get's an animal with some sort of injury or a treatment of a wound that requires surgery, and/or stitching. she treats with the usual antibiotics, but what she does is on the wound, or the stitching is slather honey on it and place a gauze bandage over it. she and other vets in her office are using honey as an antibacterial and healing 'compound'. they say it works, speeds healing with no infection, and fights potential infections better than other common treatments. i have other vets that purchase from me for the same reason.
what is really cool though is, i have been in their office at times for a vet visit, picking up a prescription, food, or delivering honey, and at the same time a client that has had their animal treated with my honey. the staff or the docs are quick to say, this is the beekeeper that supplies the honey. that's what's cool, to hear their comments and thoughts on what they think the honey treatment has done for their animal. a thank you, lots of questions, and maybe an order for a jar of honey.
