Beehive air helps asthma
A beekeeper says asthmatics can find almost instant relief in Lot-et-Garonne if they sniff the air of his beehives.
Patrice Percie du Sert said apithérapie has been used since the early 1900s and users to his well-being centre in Clermont-Dessou reported feeling their symptoms ease immediately they started a session. The benefits lasted from days to several weeks.
He added that modern researchers had identified hormones released by bee larvae in the hive which inhibited the “overexpression of genes causing asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and migraine”.
