Excerpt from Honey and Health: A Nutrimental, Medicinal and Historical Commentary For someone who knows the extraordinary merits of honey, it is difficult to comprehend the reason why this salutary substance has suffered such a setback. For sixty centuries, throughout his toric ages and undoubtedly even in prehistoric times, honey was man's only sweetener and his most favored food, delicacy and medicine. But Nature's own sweet was displaced by one of man's inferior, nay, objectionable products. Upon the intrusion of re fined sugars, honey declined in use and now, instead of being an important household necessity, it has become an article of luxury. Civilization and even science often post only dim lights as warn ing signals before deep chasms; on the other hand, they neglect to mark with road - signs abandoned paths which lead to a better life. The culpable disregard of honey is a grave and lamentable error of the present generation and a sad reflection on its intelligence. It is almost unbelievable that such an ideal and nourishing food, with its delightful bouquet, is almost entirely missing from our tables. If honey were ever rehabilitated, man would wonder how he could ever have gotten along without it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
