Facts About Honey
Honey is an excellent invigorative and roborant agent. The sugars - fructose and glucose - are rich in minerals, vitamins, ferment and hormone materials. With its regular consumption several diseases can be prevented or cured.
Honey consists of 80% glucose and fructose, water accounts for 18% and only the remaining 2% are made up of saccharine. Of all types sugar glucose is the most valuable one, which gets absorbed directly from the intestines. It has positive impact on blood circulation, myocardial function and digestion.
Alongside with these benefits it detoxifies, increases appetite and improves blood hemoglobin levels. Its energy level is lower than sugar’s, only 320 kcal/100g. Contrary to common belief it neither fattens nor causes dental decay. Its acidic effect makes up for the lack of gastric acid in the stomach. It contains diverse types of vitamins, B, K, C and trace elements. Mixed with warm – but not hot – tea honey is a natural antidote to upper respiratory diseases and infections.
Authentic, natural honey crystallizes. Crystallization does not influence the chemical properties of honey, only its consistence changes. Opposite with this, faked honey’s quality can deteriorate easily. To regain the original consistence of honey you should only place the jar into warm water of 40-50 Degrees Celsius. Good quality honey does not ever deteriorate.
Central European Honey Types
Many people expect the same taste from the same kind of honey but because it is produced naturally, its flavour and colour differ every year. It mostly depends on the weather and of course on the plant but same kind of flower from a distant region can make a difference to the flavor as well. That is why the same type of honey from other beekeepers will not provide the same experience. Now you can see why it is so hard to describe the flavour of honey.
