Bee venom (apitherapy) and arthritis

Dr. Weeks Comment: bee venom “apitherapy” has a long and noble tradition in the treatment of arthritis – mostly in Europe and eastern Europe – Charles Mraz, a wise old Vermont beekeeper and apitherapist taught me this practice in the early 1980s and we formed the American Apitherapy Society then which is still going. See below for more information on bee vneom and the treatment of arthritis but NEVER use bee venom without having a bee sting kit (benadryl and injectable epinepherine) near by and without being familar with how to use it.
