about us

Have you ever lost a productive day at work or home simply due to a cold, hangover, or low energy?

Growing up in Sweden, whenever I had a cold or sore throat, my grandparents always told me to eat honey or drink honey water. My grandfather, Tage Kimblad (now 97-years-old) has been a beekeeper for 80 years and is Sweden’s most experienced beekeeper.

As a child, he taught me a lot about honey and bees. I ate a lot of honey, but also helped to harvest it and later even sold it in my own village, Lerberget.

Years later, as a graduate student, I decided to do some research on the side of my studies. I wanted to find out why cultures had been using honey as folk medicine for thousands of years. Together with my colleague Alejandra Vasquez (one of Sweden's foremost experts on lactic acid bacteria), we revealed the mystery of honey, opening up a whole new area of research spanning food, medicine and veterinary medicine.

Lund University drew attention to our research discovery and helped us on the road to starting up our biotech company, ConCellae Ltd, which markets our products through the H13 site www.doctorhoney.com

All of our H13 products are natural health-supplements and remedies, containing honey and the 13 beneficial bacteria discovered in our research.

Please contact me if you have any questions about our products or research. I’d love to hear from you!

Alejandra found that samples from the honey and bees contained a very large variety of lactic acid bacteria that were previously unknown to the world.
