But, not only is it good for you, it also gives something back to the environment & the wider community… Giving something back to the environment… INCLUDING: Projects to create a Bee Friendly City, school partnerships to work with children across Wales to support pollinators & biodiversity, and also work contributing to the fight against antibiotic superbugs. Plus… a percentage of profits from this product will go straight back into funding these projects. About the Pharmabees project… The award-winning Pharmabees project aims to develop a Manuka-style honey to treat antibiotic resistant hospital pathogens. Cutting edge research exploring how the pollination of certain plants could lead to the development of drugs to treat serious medical conditions now resistant to traditional antibiotics – otherwise known as ‘superbugs’. Read more about the Pharmabees project “Innovation in tea production, and the search for new ideas and tastes, led us to set up the company over twenty years ago, and is still its driving force today.” “This project is a good example of the university working with Welsh industry to develop a product based on the natural bounty of Wales, supporting the wellbeing of the people of Wales.” Alan Wenden: Managing Director and Founder of Welsh Brew Tea Honey has been used for thousands of years to treat a range of conditions, including the common cold. Cardiff University, Welsh Brew Tea and Cardiff & Vale University Health Board have now joined forces to combine natural honey with the health boosting properties of tea. The bees producing the honey are part of Cardiff University’s Pharmabees project fora bee-friendly campus, which is helping the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences to develop a Manuka-style honey that can treat antibiotic resistant hospital pathogens. “After water, tea is the most commonly consumed beverage in the world. In addition to making us feel good, tea is thought to help reduce the risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, arthritis and diabetes. In laboratory studies, tea has revealed its ability to kill hospital superbugs such as MRSA and Clostridium difficile.” “Imagine the further benefits which could be obtained by combining tea with natural honey and medicinal plants. Honey has been used for thousands of years to treat a range of conditions, including the common cold.” “Our partnership with Welsh Brew Tea is all part of our work to develop honey with similar bug-killing powers to that of New Zealand’s Manuka honey and its antibacterial properties, which are due to natural compounds donated by the plants on which the bees fed to make the honey.” Professor Les Baillie: Professor of Microbiology, School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences
