More information:Honey is a natural sugary product made by bees from the nectar of flowers and other plant secretions, which they collect, transform, and store in honeycombs.
Honey is essentially composed of sugars (70%), predominantly glucose and fructose, water (20%), and minerals (10%). It contains proteins, amino acids, enzymes, organic acids, minerals, pollen, and other substances. Its consistency can be fluid, viscous, or partially or totally crystallized. Its taste, color, and aroma are derived from the plants it comes from.
Honey is widely known as a sweetener, as well as being a
great food for children and the elderly, a restorative for athletes and people feeling fatigued, as well as
antiseptic and healing. Honey is a product that is used in numerous natural beauty and cosmetic recipes, as well as remedies.
The darker the honey, the richer it is in calcium phosphate and iron, and therefore more suitable for
satisfying the needs of growing bodies, anemic individuals, and intellectuals undergoing
mental exertion.
