Euphorbia honey: side effects

The side effects of euphorbia honey are not very numerous. If you feel tingling and/or a warm throat, this is not a side effect but the normal effect of this product of the hive.

Side effects concern both at-risk individuals and people with seemingly no medical predisposition to any potential danger from euphorbia honey.

The tingling and warm side of euphorbia honey

This is also what makes euphorbia honey so appealing, the sensations felt during its consumption:

• Tingling on the tongue, palate and throat
• A warm effect extending from the mouth to the lungs

A sensation that takes a while to go away. The sensation felt will be more or less pronounced depending on the person, while some people don't feel this at all.

This is not a side effect of honey, but the origin of honey from the euphorbia flower, which is basically toxic. Don't worry, euphorbia honey is totally edible.

Who should not consume euphorbia honey?

Like all honeys and natural products, euphorbia honey has a list of people who should not consume it.

This applies equally to euphorbia honey from Yemen, Morocco or any geographical origin.

We advise you to consume it if you are among these profiles:

• To people allergic to the euphorbia plant, under penalty of having an allergic reaction requiring hospitalization.
• To people allergic to hive products such as honey, pollen, propolis, wax or royal jelly.
• To children under 12 months, for the known risk of botulism due to honey consumption.
• To people with a deficient immune system, lacking the predispositions necessary for the body to take a health challenge.
