This honey is magical, helped me to sleep better.
This honey is amazing; I'm really loving it. Ordered a second Jar; it gave me a calm, relaxing feeling and helped me to sleep better. I have adapted to this natural, organic way of getting better sleep, which lowers my cortisol levels before I sleep. No more melatonin or any pills, replaced with this natural honey

Hi Luke,
Thanks for taking the time to share this. We're sorry to hear the experience didn't match what you were expecting.
Just to clarify, Real Mad Honey is genuine, wild-harvested honey from rhododendron nectar in the Himalayas, and every batch we sell is independently lab-tested to confirm authenticity and potency, which you're welcome to check here: https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report.
As for effects, sensitivity to the natural compounds varies quite a bit from person to person depending on things like body weight, metabolism, and whether it's taken on an empty stomach.
We'd love the chance to help you get more out of it, feel free to email us at support@realmadhoney.com and we're happy to walk through dosage with you.

READ BEFORE BUYING!!
Firstly this is my shopping order number to confirm the validity of this review (, 6890UK). this has been a truly awful experience all around firstly one jar came and the seal was broken.
My experience I tried the honey 2 times about half a teaspoon each time in tea to relax, (no psychological effect) in my third time I had just less than one teaspoon (they recommend one teaspoon per dose), I use substances a lot but never ever mix anything but I’m used to hard tripping. Anyway still no psychology effect but I started to feel funny and my heart started fluttering I sit down and start to feel like I’m going to passout / throw up my partner goes and grabs the oxidiser and my heart rate is first 135 and within less then 2 minutes dropped to >40 and goes into the 30s immediately we call 111 and then 999 and was hospitalised , this shit isn’t fun and genuinely dangerous. Alcohol / weed is feels much safer and despite all this I still didn’t get any phycological effects, as one stoner to another avoid !!! genuinely a horrific experience… never advocate for drug regulations but this needs to be banned genuinely…

Hi Riley,
Thank you for taking the time to write this, and we're very glad to hear you've recovered. A night like the one you describe is frightening, and we take what you've shared seriously.
We're also sorry the jar reached you with a broken seal. that should never happen, and we'd like to understand exactly how it did. I a jar ever arrives with a broken or compromised seal, please don't consume it and reach out to us right away instead. As mentioned in the email we've already sent, we'd welcome the chance to speak privately so we can look into your order properly and make things right.
We review every report like this carefully. As a general reminder, mad honey contains natural grayanotoxins, and we always advise to never combining it with alcohol, other substances, or medication. Anyone with a heart condition, low blood pressure, or who's on medication should check with their doctor before trying it.
We're here whenever you're ready to talk.
Warm regards,

Hi Ingrida!
We really appreciate you sharing this, and we're sorry the experience didn't come through the way you hoped! Hearing this kind of feedback always matters to us.
What we can say with confidence is that the honey is genuine, every batch goes through independent lab testing to confirm authentic grayanotoxin content before it ever reaches a customer. You're welcome to check the results for your jars directly at realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. When effects aren't felt, it's most often down to individual body chemistry, sensitivity to grayanotoxins varies quite a bit depending on metabolism, tolerance, and body composition, and for some people it genuinely takes a session or two before the effects become more noticeable.
We'd love the chance to help you get the most out of your jars, just drop us a message at support@realmadhoney.com and we'll work through it with you. 🍯
Warm regards,
The Real Mad Honey Team 🐝

I bought two jars and ate both right after one another on an empty stomach and there was absolutely no effects. If your after a genuine mad honey experience go somewhere else.

Hi Aaron!
Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry the experience didn't match your expectations.
It's worth noting that consuming two full jars at once is significantly above the recommended serving, the suggested amount for the fuller experience is 1–2 tablespoons, not full jars. Effects can also vary quite a bit depending on individual sensitivity, metabolism, and tolerance, which is why we always recommend starting smaller and building up gradually.
Our honey is third-party lab-tested for every batch, and you can verify the grayanotoxin levels at realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. We'd be happy to help you get the most out of your next experience, just reach out at support@realmadhoney.com.

Hi Niles!
That's such a great way to put it, "staying in the zone longer" is exactly the kind of shift people describe, and it's honestly one of our favorite use cases. The fact that distractions bother you less says a lot about how it settles the mind without dulling anything. So glad it's become part of your creative ritual! 🐝

Just got my first jar today. Cleared my afternoon and went at it. 3 TABLESPOONS over 6 hours and didn't feel shit, and it doesn't even taste good. Go buy some weed, this shit is worthless.

Reply from Real Mad Honey
Hi Jeremy!
Thank you for sharing this, we're sorry the first experience didn't land the way you hoped! One thing we'd love to gently point out though: 3 tablespoons in one session is quite a bit more than we'd ever recommend, and with Real Mad Honey, the approach really does matter. Starting with 1 teaspoon on an empty stomach and giving it a full 45–60 minutes to settle in is the way to go
The effects are also quite different from what the name might suggest, think less "instant kick" and more of a slow, natural shift. A calmer body, a quieter mind, that kind of feeling. It's the kind of honey that rewards patience rather than going all in at once. 🌿
We'd really love to help you have a better experience with the jar you already have, reach out to us at support@realmadhoney.com and we'll make sure you get the most out of it. Every batch is also lab-tested, so you can check your jar's results anytime at https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. 🍯

Felt relaxed but nothing like what was advertised
I saw an ad on facebook making a huge deal about how it gives you a high, however their website gives disclaimers about how it may not work. This just screams scam to me. I bought it, tried it, and can confirm its a scam. I did feel slightly relaxed after a couple hours, however this was MAJOR false advertising.

Hi Avonli!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we genuinely appreciate honest feedback. We do want to gently address a few things though, because we care about being transparent with every customer.
Real Mad Honey is a 100% natural product, and like any natural product, the experience varies from person to person. Factors like body weight, metabolism, tolerance, and whether you've eaten beforehand all play a role in how strongly it works. The fact that you did feel more relaxed after taking it actually tells us the honey is doing what it's supposed to, it's just that the intensity can differ between people.
Every single batch we sell is independently lab-tested, and you're welcome to check the results for your jar right here: https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. We include disclaimers not to hedge our claims, but because we genuinely believe in responsible and transparent communication with our customers.
We'd love the chance to make this right for you, please feel free to reach out to us directly at support@realmadhoney.com and we'll be happy to help.
