The benefits of honey are by no means a novelty. Since ancient times, cultures such as the Egyptian incorporated it into the most diverse health activities. Since then, the use of honey as an antibiotic or as a medicinal food was so popular in several countries, that it has even reached our days. Not to mention that it is incredibly delicious.
We agree
We agree that honey's components make it both tasty and healthy: it's like tasting a candy loaded with antioxidants and nutrients, without having to worry about receiving the same damage as when we eat traditional refined sugar.
Not only vegetarian food enthusiasts praise it, more and more findings are proving the virtues of honey.
1. It contains a large amount of healthy nutrients
Honey is a gift from the bees that is far from being a nice, hollow taste, like so many we know.
Honey is a gift from the bees that is far from being a nice, hollow taste, like so many we know
Bees store for themselves the best of the flowers: in the nectar the most important sugars, amino acids and minerals of the plants are concentrated. Once regurgitated by the bees in the hive, the nectar undergoes a process that improves it. This must be so, as the bees' reserve of energy and nutrients in difficult times depends on it
Nutritionally speaking, the result of this process is amazing. One tablespoon of honey (21 grams) can contain the following:
2. It is rich in antioxidants.
Here's a fact: dark honey is better. This is because it concentrates more antioxidant elements. Among them are:
Scientists believe that the mixture of these elements generates the antioxidants in honey, which are capable of reducing the risk of heart attacks, strokes and even some types of cancer
3. It is better than sugar for diabetics
There is mixed evidence regarding the use of honey for diabetics. While it may help on some aspects, such as lowering bad cholesterol or triglycerides, honey still contains enough glucose to raise blood sugar.
It is better than sugar for diabetics
Despite the latter, honey is still "less bad" than sugar, and its use, in regular consumption is more advisable for diabetics.
4. Its antioxidants lower blood pressure
This is another effect of honey's antioxidants on the blood. Different studies in rats and humans have shown that honey lowers blood pressure. However, their results in this regard are quite modest, and one should not neglect other sources of antioxidants as well as exercise performed on a regular basis.

5. Helps lower bad cholesterol
LDL or "bad" cholesterol is a major risk to the cardiac system for which honey may prove to be a useful defense. Several studies have shown significant results in this regard, ensuring that honey not only reduces bad cholesterol, but increases the levels of HDL cholesterol or good cholesterol.
This prevents the atherosclerosis of the heart
This prevents atherosclerosis, a risk factor for strokes and heart attacks
6. It can lower triglycerides
Triglycerides are our internal enemy: they come from the sugar and fat we eat (and many love to eat), and can bring us problems ranging from heart risks to a possible onset of type 2 diabetes. However, the sugar in honey is a happy exception to the triglyceride rule
Some studies have shown thatconsuming honey instead of sugar can lower triglyceride levels. Optimistic studies put this difference at as much as 11-19% lower triglyceride risk in those who consume honey as a substitute.
The phenols and other antioxidant compounds in honey have many other effects on heart health. For example, certain studies have given the following promising conclusions in this regard:
The Egyptians discovered this effect in an empirical way, and we owe them much for it.
Egyptians
A review of several studies on the use of honey in cases of burns and injuries, revealed that honey can help tissue recovery in these cases:
Research suggests that these powers arise from the mixture of its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory components, as well as its nourishing effects on the skin.
Coughing is a common respiratory problem for children. In the long run, it can affect their sleep and overall health. Many medical cough remedies claim to contain honey to promote themselves for a reason: honey is effective in curing this condition
Some studies have determined that honey is very effective in reducing cough symptoms, restoring sleep habits better than any commercial medication.
Honey has been found to be effective in reducing cough symptoms, restoring sleep habits better than any commercial medication
However, its consumption in children under 1 year of age can cause botulism, so it is not recommended in this case.
It is not recommended in this case
While honey is a sweet and delicious alternative to refined sugar, it is still just that: a type of candy, composed of sugar and calories. Therefore, when consuming it, always remember to prioritize brands of high nutritional quality, which are those that are not altered with syrup. In any case, buy the most artisanal honey you can, and always use it as a substitute for sugar, never as a complement to it.
