The award announcement comes as consumers prepare for winter, when conversations about nutrition, food preparation and everyday wellness routines often receive renewed attention.
“You don’t have to let holiday travel and stress derail your health,” Orey said. “This book encourages readers to explore honey, nutrition and everyday habits as part of a thoughtful approach to seasonal well-being.”
The publication discusses scientific research concerning honey while distinguishing traditional practices from established medical evidence.
Rather than suggesting honey can prevent seasonal illnesses or replace medical treatment, the book presents its nutritional characteristics within the broader context of food and dietary education.
Beyond nutrition and cooking, the revised edition examines the relationship between honeybees, climate change and extreme weather affecting both humans and honeybees.
Prepare yourself with antioxidant-rich honey varietals and Mediterranean foods and new recipes to boost your immune system before the superbugs hit and during an El Niño event when seasonal respiratory illnesses spread more easily.
Both 2026 paperback and ebook new editions are official Amazon Bestsellers in the Antioxidant category.
