Research showed that hone from brood combs had the same beneficial effects as Melaleuca honey which sells for outrageous amounts.  I think any perceived difference is an illusion.  The honey looks darker in the comb because of the cocoons.  But I don't see any difference when it is extracted.  I'm not saying there isn't any difference, because the above mentioned study actually says it's better for you...

@Michael Bush - Michael can I have that reference please to the research? I can't find it anywhere because the internet is full of ads. Even knowing the lab or school that did the research would help.  Thanks much.

I don't have it handy and I'd have to search for it.  A link was posted to it on Beesource quite a few years back.  I would search there and on scholar.google.com
