The glucose in honey is absorbed by the body quickly and gives an immediate energy boost, while the fructose is absorbed more slowly, providing sustained energy. Next time you work out, eat a spoonful of honey beforehand to enable you to go the extra mile.
Honey contains natural antioxidant properties that can destroy biologically destructive chemical agents which have been linked to many diseases such as cancer. Not only could honey’s antioxidants help to eliminate free radicals in the body, they also help support growth of new tissue.
The effective antimicrobial agent in honey prohibits the growth of certain bacteria. It contains an enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide. Cuts, abrasions and scalds can be covered in honey to prevent bacteria from entering the wound and promote healing.
According to the Mayo Clinic, “infants under 12 months of age should never be fed honey.” For more on this caution, see www.mayoclinic.com/health/infant-botulism/HQ00854
Straight exposure to pollen often triggers allergies but exposure to pollen found in small quantities in honey usually has the opposite effect because the allergens are delivered in small, manageable doses. The effect over time is very much like that from undergoing a whole series of allergy immunology injections- but is much more pleasant! Honey that is produced near your home will have the same allergens in it that you are normally exposed to.
Unlike mass produced honey you buy in supermarkets, locally produced honey is strained to remove large particles of debris, but is not filtered or heated. Therefore, all the natural goodness of honey remains intact.
Apiarists -- the professional title for bee scientists -- estimate that one out of every three bites of food you eat is directly or indirectly pollinated by honeybees. Yet honey bees have been on the decline due to pesticides, diseases and malnutrition from mono crop pollination. Local beekeepers are trying to save our honeybees, and therefore our food supply.
