More information:Honey is a natural sugary product made by bees from the nectar of flowers and other plant exudations, 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 totally or partially crystallized. The taste, color, and aroma it possesses come 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 who feel fatigued, as well as
antiseptic and healing. Honey is a product that is used in numerous cosmetics and natural beauty 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 efforts.
