The Honey Prescription will amaze you, delight you, and, most important, give you a fantastic new ally to promote natural wellness.” * Rowan Jacobsen, author of Fruitless Fall: The Collapse of the Honey Bee and the Coming Agricultural *“The increasing interest in wellness should make this a good seller.
