Honey

Honey

Honey is a refined sweetner and is passed into the bloodstream very quickly similar to sugar but it does contain minerals and enzymes so therefore does not upset the body’s mineral balance in the same way as sugar.  Raw or cooked honey can be used to treat many conditions such as stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, sore throat/dry cough and can be applied directly to bu…rns.  A spoonful of honey has even been known to help during a hangover.  Raw honey is preferred as it contains many more minerals and enzymes than cooked honey but is not recommended to be given to infants (under 2 years of age).  Enjoy your honey in a smoothie, on your breakfast cereal, in your tea or in any other way that you would use sugar.  But enjoy in moderation.
