It is written that honey is a "superfood:"

"Eat honey, my son, for it is good; honey from the comb is sweet to
your taste." (Proverbs 24:13)

But too much is bad:

"If you find honey, eat just enough- too much of it, and you will
vomit." (Proverbs 25:16)

Simply a few words to the wise.

May GOD bless you in HIS mighty way making you healthier (hungrier)
than ever.

Prayerfully in Jesus' awesome love,

Andrew's post is nothing more than a poorly concealed attempt to spam his
book "Be Hungry", which if his Usenet postings are anything to go by will
be a mixture of poor science mish-mashed with poor theology. There are
lies, down-right lies, statistics, and Chung posts.

The spam pages not surprisingly predominantly feature the 2PD-OMER
approach, which has been repeatedly discredited over the years in various
Usenet threads. (Google is your friend ;-)

But just in case you don't want to pay 30 dollars to find out more, here's
a short version of the "eating approach".

How to do the 2PD-OMER Approach
1.Buy a food scale.
2.Measure what you eat.
3.Gradually cut the total amount eaten down to 2 pounds a day.
4.Walk for 4096 days in a Middle Eastern desert wearing robes from an
old Hollywood Biblical epic carrying a hip flask in case you have to (or
want to) drink your own urine.

Weight loss (but not survival) guaranteed by a million dollar promise
underwritten by the Imbese branch of the Somalian National Bank. Simply
post all your bank details to this newsgroup to apply.

There you go, all you need to know _and_ you don't need to visit his
K00K site.

Honey is bee barf.

Not sure I'd say that. Bees live on nothing _but_ honey.

Ever seen a diabetic bee, or a bee with a heart condition?

No, but if a male bee is lucky enough to have sex it gets its genitals
torn off and dies of its injuries. According to research studies
that's very highly correlated with eating lots of honey :-)

Drones are only about 1/100,000 of the hive population. Except
for the the queen, the rest are sterile females.

No, but I've seen dead bees. How would I tell if they died of diabetes or a
heart condition? <g>

If they were, they'd been ripped-off by the time I found them (bad
neighborhood).
