Real Experiences with Nelson Honeydew Honey
Nothing means more to us than hearing how our products have positively impacted our customers’ lives. One of the most heartwarming stories we’ve received comes from Margaret Scott of Pakuranga, who shared her husband’s journey with Crohn’s Disease — and how Honeydew Honey became an unexpected part of his healing process.
A Testimonial of Hope and Healing
Margaret's husband had been battling Crohn’s Disease for over a year. Despite prescription medication and regular consultations with a gastroenterologist, he experienced minimal relief and suffered from serious side effects. Like many facing this chronic condition, he was told there was no cure — only medication and, eventually, surgery to remove parts of the colon.
But everything changed when Margaret, brought home a jar of Honeydew Honey from Nelson Honey.
“We had been out in the weekend and missed renewing his medical prescription, so he was panicked - To cut a long story short, I got my husband to try the honey before dinner, and he was immensely impressed with the taste of the honey as well as the effect on his bowel as he didn’t have to race to the toilet after he swallowed his last mouthful of food. He then decided to take another teaspoon of the honey before going to bed. He slept like a baby that night.
The next morning, he felt so good, he decided to have another spoon of the Honeydew honey before taking his breakfast and going to work. After work, he went to have his prescription renewed, but he never took the medication again and instead decided to stick with the Honeydew honey.”
– Margaret Scott, Pakuranga
Margarets husband began taking Honeydew Honey daily — a teaspoon before meals and before bed — and soon stopped taking his prescription medication altogether (a decision made independently and not one we recommend without medical consultation). Six months later, his follow-up colonoscopy stunned his specialist: no ulcers— just a healthy colon.
Why Honeydew Honey?
Honeydew Honey is made not from flower nectar, but from the sap of native New Zealand black beech forests. This unique origin gives it:
- High levels of antioxidants
- Natural prebiotics for gut health
- Anti-inflammatory properties
While everyone’s body responds differently, many of our customers have reported improvements in their digestive health, IBS symptoms, and overall wellbeing after incorporating Honeydew Honey into their daily routine.
