1.The "nutrient content" of honey?   -80% is sugar.

More than 80% of honey is sugar, and 20% of the water is removed. There is also a small amount of fat and protein. The content of vitamins and minerals is even less than 1%. Therefore, honey is a kind of food with high calorie and single nutrient content.

Actually, honey works like a placebo. There is no substantial health benefit, and no medical effect. It would not be a cost-effective thing to bear so much sugar and calories for the sake of some misty legends.

 

2. Honey, it is easier to gain weight than laxatives.

Honey is a laxative, which is only effective for people who are intolerant to fructose, and you have to eat dozens of grams of honey to have a bowel movement. I have not waited until it is unobstructed, it is estimated that I will gain weight.


3. Pure natural ≠ safe.

The vast majority of flowers are non-toxic, but a few species contain toxic ingredients. In case the industrious little honey encounters this kind of flower, the untreated "original ecological honey" may be dangerous. So don't be superstitious about "pure nature".


4. These three words are written on the bottle, please do not to buy.

Compound honey:it means adding other substances to honey, which can also be said to be fake honey. This kind of honey is very common in supermarkets, such as honey cream, nutritious honey, children's honey, beauty honey, elderly honey, etc., with many names and dazzling people.

Concentrated honey: Concentrated honey is processed honey. These honeys are real honey, but the active enzymes contained in the honey are destroyed after processing, and the nutritional value is greatly reduced.


5.How to buy real honey?

Look at the gloss: high-quality honey has strong light transmission and less impurities and bubbles

Smell the aroma: Pure honey has a slight floral fragrance, while impure honey has an artificial fragrance.

watch bubbles: high-quality honey has a low water content and a sticky texture. If you turn the sealed honey bottle upside down, you will find that the air sealed at the mouth of the bottle is difficult to float and bubble.

Taste the taste: good honey is refreshing and mellow in the mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance in the mouth after swallowing, while inferior honey has no fragrance or a rancid smell.
