Description
Honey is the product from the bee’s collection and natural processing of flower nectar. The composition of honey varies depending on the source of the nectar, but all varieties are nutrient rich.
Honey is bacteria-resistant and may be used topically and internally for healing purposes. Traditionally, Honey has been used to soothe sore throats, calm stomach pains, treat cold and flu symptoms and to dress open wounds.
Non-pasteurized honey contains many natural enzymes, minerals and vitamins which are important to maintain a healthy body. Honey provides nutritious sweetening which may be substituted for sugar in coffee, tea and many recipes. Because honey is twice as sweet compared to sugar, only half the amount is needed when substituting, therefore it reduces the caloric intake.
