Hey folks are we aloud to have honey post op? I was thinking of adding to the plain Greek yogurt.

I wasn't sure if this was a no no for our new stomachs that may be vulnerable to bacteria.

Thoughts?

The yogurt is loaded with bacteria, supposedly the good guys. I don't think honey has anything harmful but I am not a scientist although I could have been if had I stayed in school and not had my mind on partying....stop rambling Gman....ok.

I am a honey fanatic... I buy jars from every place I visit.

First, post sleeve I was super sensitive to tastes so 1tsp of honey in my big mug of tea was super sweet. It sweetens better than regular sugar and it's natural (buy local!)

Second, honey has natural antibiotic properties (you can safely use it on burns and cuts). It goes great with FF Greek yogurt and little goes long way. I think you are thinking of botulism toxin that can affect people, it's spores can be found in honey and only affect children under 12month. Adults have enough intestinal flora to not get sick in the off chance the we inject the spores (which exist in the air, as well as poorly preserved food).

It's still a sugar but better than fake stuff or white sugar.

So yes go honey go!
