On Friday, September 18^th, a swarm of bee girls will be giving away Bee M.D.’s delicious organic honey throat drops to consumers in key spots around the city

September 16, 2009 (NYC) – To recognize September’s National Honey Month as well as the general start of cold and flu season, Bee M.D. ® is taking their honey based, organic throat drops to the streets of New York City.

On September 18, 2009, Bee M.D. will be executing a one day sampling spree, handing out thousands of their organic honey throat drops to consumers in key spots around Manhattan.  A team of bee girls will “buzz” around the city in branded Bee M.D. MINI Coopers and they will distribute sample packets of the organic honey throat drops at high traffic spots including Times Square and Washington Square Park.

Bee M.D. is dedicated to providing the most natural form of throat relief.  Formulated with organic honey as the main ingredient, Bee M.D. provides natural, soothing relief for the whole family.  Unlike other throat drops, Bee M.D. tastes sweet and smooth like the honey from which it is created, without the harsh medicinal taste of other name brand drops.  This natural product is USDA certified organic with no artificial ingredients or preservatives, just sweet, tasty golden goodness!    

“This time of year is perfect for sampling Bee M.D. Not only is it National Honey Month, but it’s also when seasonal temperatures shift and people might start feeling a little scratch or soreness in their throats. When this happens, we want them to have Bee M.D. top of mind,” says Harry Overly, vice president – marketing and innovation for BestSweet.  “Being made primarily of honey, Bee M.D. is much more soothing and effective versus competitive sugar-based products. It’s also a safe, natural, healthy product which tastes great and is something that moms can feel good about giving to their kids.  

Not only is Bee M.D. healthy for families, but it is friendly to its creators, the bees, and our environment as well.   We know that bees play a vital role and act as pollinators for flowers, trees, fruits and crops; without them over 1/3 of our global food supply would cease to exist.  Studies show that bee populations are now threatened and declining.  With every purchase, Bee M.D. is proudly donating money to support the research and protection of bees.  

So this season, stock up on an organic, naturally restorative, throat drop that is sweet to your throat and to the environment all at the same time.  For soothing fiery throats all year round, Bee M.D. is Your Remedy!   For more information, visit www.sponsorabee.com.

Bee M.D ® can be now be found in local grocery and drug stores at an SRP of $3.29 for a 21-count bag.  Bee M.D. is also be available for purchase at www.drugstore.com.
