Honey
Honey, also called "hive gold", is obtained from flower nectar. Consumption of honey is known to provide energy thanks to its richness in sugars. It is recommended during the winter season to combat temporary physical and intellectual fatigue.
Honey can be used to replace sugar because it is of much better nutritional quality. Indeed, unlike white sugar, an industrial sugar with no added value, honey is composed of a mixture of carbohydrates (it contains 38% fructose, 31% glucose, 2% sucrose) and 17% water. , but also many vitamins, enzymes and trace elements.
Another difference, and not the least, compared to white sugar: it has a much greater sweetening power while being less caloric. A spoonful of honey can replace two sugars and you provide your body with a quality natural product, healthier and much lower in calories. In addition, since fructose takes longer to digest than glucose, the "kick" effect is delayed.
Honey has several health benefits. It is a real concentrate of energy, ideal in cases of fatigue, loss of energy and even low morale. It relieves sore throats and brings softness and deliciousness.
