Thursday Fun Fact 7-9 - There's not a ton of good scientific evidence for using honey as medicine, and there's even less about getting bee stings to treat a variety of disorders.

​This may also explain why there are so many more studies on eating honey than getting stung.
Also, if you're bad at gathering honey, you can accidentally run a study on eating honey THEN getting stung.
