SEE: The Many Benefits To Raw Honey, And Why You Must Have It In Your Diet
Testosterone is a hormone contained in both men and women, but is significantly needed more in men versus women. Testosterone is of course renowned and most well-known for its effects on masculinity, but it also is an androgen, which means it greatly impacts especially during puberty and bodily development. It has involved in a number of things including:
- Libido (sex drive)
- Fertility and virility
- Bone health
- Energy levels
- Blood cell production
- Mood
- Clarity and focus
- Healthy cholesterol levels
- Deepening of voice
- Facial hair and pubic hair
- Growth spurts
- Muscle mass
Conversely, low testosterone can lead to things such as:
- decreased sex drive
- less energy
- weight gain
- feelings of depression
- moodiness
- low self-esteem
- less body hair
- thinner bones
Moreover, usually accompanied with lower testosterone also shows signs of elevated levels of estrogen, the female hormone, and a hormone that is produced in times of certain kinds of stress. An improper balance can lead to feminizing effects. You can see direct evidence of this in this report: “Japanese Scientists Use Soy Compounds To Turn Male Catfish And Sturgeon 100% Female.”
And as it has become widely known know at this point that testosterone levels worldwide have significantly been dropping.
But a lot of people do not realize that honey, and other bee related products such as the honeycomb, propolis and bee pollen, bee bread, and the royal jelly (the substance the queens feed on) can create noticeable improvements in one’s testosterone.
In 2019 the authors of a study titled “Mechanisms of honey on testosterone levels” reached this conclusion:
In conclusion, collectively, the main stream of this specific research approach reveals that oral administration of honey enhances serum testosterone level in males. The mechanisms by which honey increases serum testosterone may be by enhancing the production of luteinizing hormone, enhancing the viability of Leydig cells, reducing testicular oxidative injury, enhancing StAR gene expression, and inhibiting aromatase activity in the testes.
In addition, honey has been found to contain various bioactive compounds (e.g., phenolic acids) that may improve testosterone production. However, still, there is lack in the number of human studies in this research context. Therefore, conducting clinical trials that reveal the mechanisms of honey on serum testosterone level will be of great importance.
Additionally, research has shown that a flavonoid found in honey and propolis called Chrysin may increase testosterone, though more studies are needed.
This video provides a great overview as to why you should consider eating honey to boost testosterone.
Moreover, scripture has high praise for eating honey:
Proverbs 24:13 My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: [14] So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.
Furthermore, honey and a honeycomb is often a metaphor for the word of God in the Bible, and, corroborating with what we know about testosterone, the King James Bible also says this: “It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones” (Proverbs 3:8).
In short, honey and other bee-related products are packed with a plethora of benefits as is, and is fantastic you are looking for something that not only tastes great, but also has an indefinite shelf life if stored properly, has great satiety, and can boost your testosterone to boot, among other things.
Just make sure it’s raw and is locally as you can get it, because the pollination from the bees can act as a natural allergy remedy depending on where you live, per the plants they pollinated.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Wow! That’s great. I better make honey a habit. It’s also great for if you have a craving for something sweet, instead of donuts, ice cream, other pastries, and especially toxic candy, spread some raw honey on a piece of bread and you’re good to go.
Jacob, although I live in America, I’m also currently on the border of Mexico and there’s a store that sells raw honey with a honeycomb and it comes from Mexico. Is that okay?
I wouldn’t see why it’s a problem. As long as it raw and unfiltered then it should be fine.
Alright. Just for your information, I’ll send ya a picture of it.
Thank you Jacob. When God created the world he put everything we would ever need in it and on it. But my prize possession is his word and Word.
