@jolly_angelina @yoshaza Nope, but I have answered the honey question a lot.

Honey (see here http://www.foodnavigator-asia.com/Markets/Fake-honey-UK-manuka-sales-alone-outstrip-entire-global-production re Manuka), has been proven to have no effect on leg ulcers.

Honey is bactericidal, that is it works on infections. Ulcers are caused by a breakdown in circulation, either blood, lymphatic fluid, or both. There is nothing there for honey to work on.

True, ulcers can become infected (mine isn't, it's just been swabbed), but that’s a symptom, not a cause. Curing the infection doesn’t cure the ulcer, as I know all too well.
