Health Benefits Of Natural Honey by Honeyishealth1: 11:19pm On Oct 19, 2018
1. Honey Promotes Burn and Wound Healing
Honey can be applied to skin to heal wounds and burns since ancient Egypt, and is still being used today. It is most effective at healing partial thickness burns and wounds that have become infected after surgery. It is also an effective treatment for diabetic foot ulcers, which are very serious complications and can lead to amputation.


2. The Antioxidants in It Can Help Lower Blood Pressure
An important risk factor for heart disease is blood pressure, and honey may help lower it.
This is because it contains antioxidant compounds that have been linked to blood pressure lowering effects
3. High-Quality Honey Is Rich in Antioxidants
High-quality honey contains many important antioxidants. These includes phenols, enzymes and compounds like flavonoids and organic acids.
Scientists believe that it is the combination of these compounds that gives honey its antioxidant power.

4. Honey Contains Some Nutrients
Honey is a sweet, thick liquid made by honeybees.
The bees swarm their environment and collect the sugar-rich nectar of flowers.
Then inside the beehive, they repeatedly consume, digest and regurgitate ("vomit") the nectar.
The end product is honey, a liquid that is supposed to serve as stored food for the bees. The smell, color and taste depend on the types of flowers the bees visit.
Nutritionally, 1 tablespoon of honey (21 grams) contains 64 calories and 17 grams of sugar, including fructose, glucose, maltose and sucrose.

5. Honey Can Lower Triglycerides
Elevated blood triglycerides are another major risk factor for heart disease.
They are also a key sign of insulin resistance, a major driver of type 2 diabetes.
Triglyceride levels tend to increase on a diet that is high in sugar and refined carbs.
Interestingly, multiple studies have linked regular honey consumption with lower triglyceride levels, especially when it is used to replace sugar


6. Honey Can Help Suppress Coughs in Children
Coughing is a common problem for children with upper respiratory infections.
It can affect sleep and quality of life, for both the children and their parents.
However, mainstream medications for cough are not always effective and can have side effects.
Nevertheless, it should never be given to children under 1 year of age, due to the risk for botulism.
