HONEY - "food of gods"

Since the ancient times, people have known of honey’s medicinal attributes and they have appreciated it not only as food, but also as medicine. The folk medicine is full of various honey-based concoctions (syrups, mixtures, balms…) that were used in the past for treatment of various diseases. Honey is much used today in dietary therapy of many diseases. Unfortunately, many households today use white refined sugar as sweetener or in candy-making because it is much cheaper than honey, which is a huge injustice to honey as a highly valuable foodstuff.
Honey is a foodstuff which may not be produced artificially, despite the enormous advances in science and technology.

Chemical composition of honey

In chemical terms, honey is a compound of various active agents which are fully utilized in the human organism. Honey contains from 72 to 75% of invert sugar (glucose and fructose), 5% of complex sugars (maltose, dextrose, etc.) and organic fruit acids (malic, oxalic, and tartaric …). Honey also contains some proteins, ferments, hormones,… and it also includes pollen. The colour of honey depends on the most dominant honey-bearing cultures present at the pastures, on the quality of sun light, soil ... Darker types of honey, especially those gathered from the wood pastures, are richer in minerals, particularly iron, copper and magnesium. The ferments present in honey provide it with special features that can not be reproduced artificially. The levels of vitamins in honey vary, mostly depending on the type of the herbs from which it was gathered. The most common vitamins are the group B vitamins (riboflavin, aneurin, pyridoxine, panthothenic acid, nicotinic acid etc…). Certain sorts of honey also include vitamin C, carotene and vitamin E.

Nutritional qualities of honey.

Honey is easily digestible as food and it is almost fully utilized by the organism. In addition to the above mentioned nutritional qualities, honey also has numerous medicinal and antioxidant properties. Due to a high share of simple sugars (glucose and fructose), the honey is immediately and easily used by the organism as a high-quality foodstuff (for feeding cells, generating bodily temperature, muscle work …) unlike white sugar which is exclusively a sweetener, without nutritive properties of honey and with twice more calories.
