Bee products for medicinal use
A seminar looking at the medical uses of products from bees and their environment will be held in Tauranga on September 12.
The seminar will be led by Dr Shaun Holt, science director of HoneyLab, a Tauranga-based pharmaceutical company which is running the world's largest clinical research programme into the medical uses of products from bees and their environment.
Shaun lectures at Victoria University in Wellington, is a qualified pharmacist and doctor and the author of nine books and more than 200 scientific papers.
HoneyLab does not sell jars of Manuka honey to be eaten, rather developing novel medical products and undertaking clinical research to show that locally-sourced natural materials can be as effective and safe as pharmaceutical medicines...
