It is commonly used as substitute for sugar or a flavor enhancer. But other than that, honey is also effective in treating burns and wounds and it has been used for this purpose for many centuries.<br> <br> <br> Now it is known that the secret of honey lies on its antibacterial activity.<br> <br> How Can Honey Stop Infection? We know that bacteria love sugar, but why most bacteria and other microorganisms cannot grow or reproduce in honey?<br> <br> Here are the reasons:<br> <br> 1. Acidity &#8211; Honey is acidic, and acids prevent the growth of bacteria.<br> <br> 2. Hydrogen Peroxide &#8211; When honey is applied as a wound dressing, it is diluted with fluids from the damaged tissue and combines with an enzyme added by the bee to form hydrogen peroxide, the same antiseptic found in drugstores. Diluted honey can serve as an excellent antiseptic because the naturally occurring hydrogen peroxide won&#8217;t harm the tissues and no scarring will occur.<br> <br> Applying Honey as a Wound Dressing<br> <br> 1. Usually, 20 ml of honey (25 &#8211; 30 g, 1 ounce) is enough on a 10 cm X 10 cm (4 inch X 4 inch) dressing. The honey dressings should be cut to a size that extends beyond the edges of the wound.<br> <br> 2. To prevent honey oozing out from the wound dressing, waterproof dressings are needed. Absorbent dressings are not recommended as they soak the honey making it less effective. Adhesive tape or bandages can be used to hold the dressings in place.<br> <br> 3. It is better to spread the honey on the dressing first before applying it on the wound area.<br> <br> 4. If there are abscesses in the wound area, fill it with honey before applying the dressing pad, so that there is honey in contact with the wound.<br> <br> 5. The amount of honey required on the wound depends on the amount of fluid it exudes. Honey will be useless if it is diluted by large amounts of fluid. Also the frequency of dressing changes depends on how fast the honey is being diluted by fluid.<br> <br> 6. On deeper infections, more honey is required to get an effective antibacterial activity.<br> <br> 7. Daily dressing changes up to three times daily may be needed.<br> <br> 8. Exudation of fluid should be reduced after few days use of honey dressing. During this time, less dressing changes will be needed.<br> <br> Honey Used as Medicine: Below are some common problems which can easily be prevented from the use of honey:<br> <br> 1. Allergies &#8211; Raw honey is an excellent treatment for 90% of allergies.<br> <br> 2. Anemia &#8211; Honey is a great blood enricher. The darker the honey the better. Take 1 ripe banana with 1 tablespoon of honey, 1-2 times a day.<br> <br> 3. Appetite &#8211; Honey improves appetite in children suffering from appetite loss.<br> <br> 4. Conjunctivitis &#8211; Dissolve honey in equal amount of warm water. When cooled, apply as lotion or eye bath.<br> <br> 5. Fatigue and exhaustion &#8211; Honey is the best ingredient to remove tiredness and fatigue almost instantly because it is easily absorbed in the blood. Dissolve 1 teaspoon of honey in warm water or quarter honey balance of water in a jug and keep in the fridge.<br> <br> 6. Headaches and Migraine &#8211; Take 2 teaspoons at meals to prevent headache. For migraines, take 1 dessertspoon of honey dissolved in a half glass of warm water. Repeat in 20 minutes if migraine persists.<br> <br> 7. Heart Diseases &#8211; Honey can fight against cholesterol. Pure honey taken with foods daily instead of sugar relieves complains of cholesterol. This is helpful for old people, especially sufferers of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and others.<br> <br> 8. High Blood Pressure &#8211; Take mixed 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of ginger juice and 1 teaspoon of cumin powder 2 times a day.<br> <br> 9. Insomnia (Sleeplessness) &#8211; Take 1 teaspoon of honey mixed in lukewarm water or milk and drink before going to bed.<br> <br> 10. Poor Digestion &#8211; Mix 1:1 honey with cider vinegar and dilute with water.<br> <br> 11. Skin &#8211; Honey is a good moisturizer. It also helps in reducing skin problems like pimples.<br> <br> 12. Sore Throat &#8211; Let 1 teaspoon of honey melt in the back of the mouth and trickle down the throat.<br> <br> 13. Stomachache &#8211; Take 1 teaspoon of honey, juice of a 1\u017d2 lemon with a hot glass of water first thing in the morning.<br> <br> 14. Teeth &#8211; Although honey is sweet, it helps to maintain and protect teeth. Important: Honey contains a certain bacterium that might be harmful in infants; it should never be fed to children younger than one year old. Otherwise it could lead to food poisoning.<br> <br> Now you know that when honey is applied properly to a wound, it can promote healing just as good as or often better than, over-the-counter ointments and dressings. It is also a great preventive medicine on common ailments.<br> <br> About The Author: Junji Takano is a Japanese health researcher and has been studying the causes of viruses since 1960s. In 1968, he invented Pyro-Energen, the first electrotherapy device that eradicates viral diseases in a non-narcotic way.<br> <br> Visit him at: http:\/\/www.pyroenergen.com Free newsletter: http:\/\/www.pyroenergen.com\/newsletter.htm<br> <br> Article Source: http:\/\/EzineArticles.com\/<br> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br> <br> http:\/\/www.smtl.co.uk\/WMPRC\/DressingsTimes\/vol3.2.txt<br> <br> <br> <br> Welcome \u00a0to \u00a0the \u00a0eighth edition \u00a0of the Dressings Times in which Dr Keith Middleton of the Pharmacy Department, \u00a0Northwick \u00a0Park \u00a0Hospital \u00a0provides an interesting account of the use of sugar paste in wound management. \u00a0<br> <br> Sugar Pastes in Wound Management<br> <br> In 1976, Herszage and Montenegro of Argentina used \u00a0ordinary sugar to treat the wounds of two patients with post-surgical necrotic cellulitis. Further successes followed and in 1980 they \u00a0reported \u00a0on \u00a0the \u00a0use \u00a0of sugar paste in 120 infected wounds and recorded a cure rate of 99.2%.[1] The time \u00a0taken for \u00a0the \u00a0wounds to heal varied between 9 days and 17 weeks, but it was observed that odour and secretion began to diminish \u00a0within \u00a024 hours and disappeared totally after 72 to 96 hours of treatment. In 1985, Trouillet et al[2] \u00a0described<br> the \u00a0use of sugar in the treatment of 19 patients with acute mediastinitis following cardiac surgery. Wounds were \u00a0packed every \u00a03 \u00a0to \u00a04 \u00a0hours \u00a0with ordinary commercially available granular sugar (sucrose). The authors noted \u00a0near \u00a0complete debridement followed \u00a0by the rapid formation of granulation tissue and eradication of bacterial infection after an average of 7.6 days of treatment.<br> <br> Sugar \u00a0was first used as a dressing in Northwick Park Hospi-<br> <br> tal in 1982 when it was placed into infected radical vulvec-<br> <br> tomy \u00a0wounds \u00a0that \u00a0had \u00a0not \u00a0responded to more conventional<br> <br> therapies. However, due to the nature of such wounds, \u00a0pack-<br> <br> ing \u00a0with \u00a0granular \u00a0sugar \u00a0was \u00a0found \u00a0to be impossible and<br> <br> therefore a thick paste was developed. Other early \u00a0patients<br> <br> to \u00a0be \u00a0treated \u00a0with sugar at Northwick Park were two hypo-<br> <br> gammaglobulinaemic individuals who had \u00a0developed extensive<br> <br> tracking sinuses. \u00a0For \u00a0these, \u00a0a thin paste was formulated<br> <br> that could be injected into the narrow wounds.<br> <br> <br> <br> Thick sugar paste has a consistency similar to that of \u00a0mod-<br> <br> elling clay and can be moulded in the gloved hand immediate-<br> <br> ly prior to packing into cavities with large \u00a0openings \u00a0such<br> <br> as pressure sores. Thin sugar paste resembles thin honey; it<br> <br> is suitable for instillation into cavities with small \u00a0open-<br> <br> ings with a syringe and fine plastic tube or catheter.<br> <br> <br> <br> Formulae for sugar pastes<br> <br> <br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Thin \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Thick<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Caster sugar \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01200g \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01200g<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(fine granular sucrose)<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Icing sugar &#8211; additive free \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01800g \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01800g<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(powdered sucrose)<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Polyethylene glycol 400 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01416ml \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0686ml<br> <br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Hydrogen Peroxide 30% \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a023.1ml \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a019ml<br> <br> <br> <br> (Final concentration of hydrogen peroxide is 0.15% v\/w.)<br> <br> <br> <br> The \u00a0pastes are prepared in the hospital pharmacy by combin-<br> <br> ing the H2O2 with the PEG 400 and \u00a0then incorporating \u00a0this<br> <br> solution into the sugars with the aid of a mechanical mixer.<br> <br> When homogenous the paste is packed into screw capped \u00a0plas-<br> <br> tic \u00a0containers \u00a0and stored at 4C.

This \u00a0has<br> <br> been demonstrated \u00a0both \u00a0in patients with malodorous wounds<br> <br> (when the smell of infected necrotic tissue is removed after<br> <br> 2-3 days), and in patients with infected abscesses. \u00a0Irriga-<br> <br> tion with thin sugar paste has achieved \u00a0successful results<br> <br> in \u00a0patients with chronic discharging sinuses who had previ-<br> <br> ously failed to respond to other therapies. Repeated \u00a0appli-<br> <br> cation \u00a0over \u00a03 to \u00a06 \u00a0weeks is generally required to bring<br> <br> about complete healing. Sugar paste lowers the pH of \u00a0wounds<br> <br> to \u00a0approximately 5 which may be important in infected wound<br> <br> although the paste does not stimulate or retard \u00a0granulation<br> <br> tissue formation in clean wounds in the pig model.[6]<br> <br> <br> <br> Sugar paste (thick and thin) is rapidly bactericidal against<br> <br> all organisms so far tested when challenged according \u00a0to \u00a0a<br> <br> modified \u00a0British \u00a0Pharmacopoeia antimicrobial preservatives<br> <br> effectiveness test. When samples of the paste were \u00a0inocu-<br> <br> lated \u00a0with \u00a0Staphylococcus \u00a0aureus, Streptococcus faecalis,<br> <br> Escherichia coli or Candida albicans, to give 105 \u00a0cfu\/gram,<br> <br> less \u00a0than \u00a010 \u00a0cfu\/gram were \u00a0detectable \u00a0after \u00a01 hour at<br> <br> 25C.[7] Pastes diluted with serum have a reduced \u00a0bacterici-<br> <br> dal effect &#8211; 75% paste in serum gave an 80% reduction in vi-<br> <br> able numbers of S. aureus within 2 hours and a 99% reduction<br> <br> in viable numbers of Proteus mirabilis within 1 hour[3].<br> <br> <br> <br> Although \u00a0the application of sugar to a wound creates an en-<br> <br> vironment with low water activity \u00a0(aw) \u00a0and \u00a0high \u00a0osmotic<br> <br> pressure, overall the wound remains moist. (The water activ-<br> <br> ity of a solution is the ratio of its water vapour \u00a0pressure<br> <br> to \u00a0that \u00a0of pure water at the same temperature so that aw =<br> <br> P\/Po).<br> <br> <br> <br> The effect of reducing water activity values on \u00a0the \u00a0growth<br> <br> of \u00a0bacteria \u00a0has \u00a0been investigated by Chirife et al[8] who<br> <br> determined the limiting water activities at which \u00a0different<br> <br> species of bacteria will grow. \u00a0We have determined the water<br> <br> activity of our pastes, at different dilutions in serum, \u00a0by<br> <br> measuring \u00a0water \u00a0vapour \u00a0pressure at 25C with an electronic<br> <br> hygrometer. Undiluted pastes have an almost zero availabili-<br> <br> ty \u00a0of \u00a0water \u00a0because the \u00a0sugar (sucrose) is dispersed in<br> <br> Polyethylene glycol 400 which does not contain water. \u00a0Sugar<br> <br> has an osmotic action which can be thermodynamically related<br> <br> to water activity by the following equation.[8]<br> <br> <br> <br> = (RT\/V) x log (1\/aw),<br> <br> <br> <br> where \u00a0= osmotic pressure,<br> <br> R is the gas constant,<br> <br> T is the absolute temperature in degrees kelvin,<br> <br> V is the partial molal volume of water and<br> <br> aw is the water activity.<br> <br> <br> <br> Thus, by determining water activity, \u00a0the osmotic \u00a0pressure<br> <br> can be calculated. From this equation it will be seen that a<br> <br> solution of low water activity has high osmotic pressure.<br> <br> <br> <br> Because of the difficulty of conducting a \u00a0controlled \u00a0trial<br> <br> of \u00a0sugar \u00a0paste \u00a0in \u00a0human wounds, an animal study has been<br> <br> conducted[6] using a method similar to that reported by Win-<br> <br> ter and Scales.[9] Full thickness wounds 25 mm square, and 9<br> <br> mm deep were made in the backs of pigs and around \u00a0each \u00a0was<br> <br> placed a colostomy stoma ring. This in turn was covered with<br> <br> a semipermeable plastic film dressing (Opsite) so as to form<br> <br> a \u00a0moist \u00a0chamber. \u00a0\u00a0Wounds were either covered with Opsite<br> <br> alone, or packed with thick sugar \u00a0paste \u00a0or \u00a0cotton \u00a0gauze<br> <br> soaked \u00a0in \u00a0various antiseptic solutions and then covered in<br> <br> Opsite. The results showed that \u00a0there \u00a0was \u00a0no \u00a0significant<br> <br> difference between \u00a0wounds \u00a0left unpacked, but covered with<br> <br> Opsite, and those Opsite covered wounds \u00a0packed with \u00a0sugar<br> <br> paste, indicating \u00a0that although sugar paste did not stimu-<br> <br> late the formation of granulation \u00a0tissue, neither \u00a0did \u00a0it<br> <br> cause \u00a0inhibition \u00a0or \u00a0toxicity. However, all wounds packed<br> <br> with antiseptics showed evidence of delayed \u00a0healing, \u00a0espe-<br> <br> cially \u00a0those \u00a0containing \u00a0chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2%. The<br> <br> pig model wounds were not infected so no conclusions can \u00a0be<br> <br> drawn \u00a0on \u00a0the \u00a0relative value of Opsite and sugar paste for<br> <br> healing infected wounds.<br> <br> <br> <br> Conclusion<br> <br> <br> <br> Sugar paste should be considered for the management \u00a0of \u00a0all<br> <br> infected \u00a0and \u00a0malodorous wounds. It is a far less expensive<br> <br> alternative to Debrisan and similar products \u00a0which \u00a0are \u00a0of<br> <br> dubious \u00a0efficacy \u00a0and \u00a0are \u00a0often \u00a0difficult to remove from<br> <br> wounds. In our experience, sugar paste is also \u00a0superior \u00a0to<br> <br> charcoal \u00a0dressings for treating malodorous wounds as it re-<br> <br> moves the cause of the smell and in this respect is \u00a0similar<br> <br> to \u00a0metronidazole gel. However sugar paste may be preferable<br> <br> to metronidazole gel for treating such wounds as the use \u00a0of<br> <br> topical \u00a0\u00a0antibacterials \u00a0\u00a0and \u00a0\u00a0antibiotics \u00a0\u00a0should \u00a0\u00a0be<br> <br> avoided.[10]<br> <br> <br> <br> Sugar paste lacks the toxicity of most \u00a0antiseptics and \u00a0it<br> <br> does \u00a0not disrupt the architecture of the healing wounds, as<br> <br> does packing with gauze.<br> <br> <br> <br> The paste is self-sterilizing and can be produced in differ-<br> <br> ent \u00a0viscosities \u00a0to \u00a0suit \u00a0all kinds of wound and it is not<br> <br> painful to apply. \u00a0It may cause \u00a0bleeding \u00a0when \u00a0granulation<br> <br> tissue \u00a0\u00a0is \u00a0\u00a0well \u00a0formed, \u00a0at \u00a0which \u00a0stage simple, \u00a0non-<br> <br> impregnated dressings should be applied which will keep \u00a0the<br> <br> wound moist and allow epithelialisation to occur.<br> <br> <br> <br> References<br> <br> <br> <br> 1. \u00a0Herszage L. et al., Tratamiento de las heridas supuradas<br> <br> con azucar granulado comercial, Biol Trab Soc Argent., 1980,<br> <br> 41, 315-330.<br> <br> <br> <br> 2.
