About Cliff
Mad Honey Index

The deep clinical and scientific reference for Mad Honey: grayanotoxin mechanism, clinical safety data, and the GTX Safety Standard, with no commercial agenda.

One Complete Reference. No Conflicts of Interest.

Cliff Mad Honey Index is the deep clinical and scientific reference in the Mad Honey ecosystem, the place to go when you want the mechanism, the clinical detail, and the evidence-graded risk framework beneath a plain-language answer. We don’t sell honey, we don’t represent producers, and we don’t take affiliate fees. We maintain the GTX Safety Standard, the first public framework for classifying mad honey by grayanotoxin concentration, alongside detailed clinical content on toxicology, treatment, and dosage, and an annotated library of the peer-reviewed research behind it, with every citation linked to its source.

What We Cover

The Cliff Mad Honey Index is organised into four core sections. Science & Toxicology covers the chemistry: what grayanotoxins are, how they work at a molecular level, how they’re tested, and what the clinical evidence says. Safety Standard is our original contribution, the first publicly available, evidence-based framework for classifying mad honey by GTX risk level. Knowledge Base covers everything else: history, effects, legality, buying guides, and regional deep-dives. Research is our annotated source library, every peer-reviewed paper and clinical study cited across the site, in one place.

Our Editorial Principles

Every factual claim we make is traceable to a published source. We cite peer-reviewed literature, not other content websites. We distinguish clearly between established science, emerging evidence, and informed opinion. Where the science is uncertain, we say so. See our Content Integrity page for full details.

🔬

Science-First

We cite peer-reviewed literature, not blogs. Complex science, explained clearly, never dumbed down.

🛡️

Consumer-Focused

Everything we publish is written to help people make safer, more informed decisions about mad honey.

⚖️

Independent

No producers, no retailers, no affiliates. Our positions are determined by evidence, not commercial relationships.
