Honey contains small amounts of pollen which may cause an allergic reaction. Pollen is a natural part of honey, so those who are sensitive to pollen should only use small amounts of honey and see if it triggers an allergic reaction. Those with pollen allergies can use honey for desensitisation by eating it daily months before pollen season. Those who have severe pollen allergies can try our Finnish Filtered Honey (350g), which contains less pollen than other honey products thanks to straining.
