The Many Benefits Of Pure Raw Honey

By Joyce Collins


There are some types of food that has been treasured by mankind over all the ages. The special syrup produced by bees is most certainly on near the top of this list. This food has been described as miraculous. In fact, it is the only type of food known to man that cannot rot. It can be eaten safely even after thousands of years have passed. Pure raw honey is most certainly one of the most valuable super foods available to society today.

This food certainly offers many benefits in various areas of life. There are nutritional benefits, health benefits and even psychological benefits to gain by eating it. But for most people, the very act of eating this sweet, delicious treat is the only benefit that they want to enjoy. It is freely available everywhere but experts warn that consumers must beware that not all varieties are complete natural.

It is unfortunate that some suppliers feel that it is necessary to add preservatives and other additives to their products. This is entirely unnecessary. Consumers should be sure to look out for products that specifically state that it contains no such additives. It is also necessary to understand that products from different regions may have different natural flavours. It depends upon the natural vegetation of the area where the syrup is produced.

The proven health benefits are stunning and there is not a single known case of anyone showing any form of adverse reaction after eating honey. It is a marvellous natural antibiotic, obviously without the nasty side effects of medical versions. It is an effective anti inflammatory and anti fungal agent. It can be used as it is to heal exposed wounds and it helps fight harmful free radicals because it is rich in antioxidants.

Sugar is well known as one of the big culprits in efforts to achieve effective weight control. This syrup, though sweet, does not cause fat. In fact, it helps to lower the blood sugar level, increase metabolism and it even helps to suppress the appetite. It provides energy for much longer periods than sugar does. It is not only a very efficient anti allergen but it also helps the immune system to function at optimum levels.

A lot of people use it purely for its versatility in the kitchen. It is an excellent ingredient in sauces, it works well with numerous other ingredients and it can most certainly be used in the place of sugar in most dishes. It is a popular home remedy for sore throats and many people even use it to convince unwelcome insects and other critters to stay away from the homestead.

Sadly, bees are fast becoming endangered all over the world. Despite large scale commercial farming, their natural habitat is shrinking by the day. Some environmental experts say that if bees become extinct the entire future of the planet is at risk. People are scared of bees and have them killed or removed without thinking twice. They are, in fact, valuable allies and they should be treated a s such.

One wonders why so many people call their loved ones honey. Maybe it is an instinctive reference to the very high regard that this substance enjoys. It is healthy, tasty and even desirable. It is mysterious and it is not easy to harvest.
