There are too many benefits of drinking honey for a long time, but now there are more fake honey on the market. This time, I will give you a honey science lesson. I hope more people can correctly choose natural mature honey that is beneficial to their health, instead of mixing chemicals, syrup, high-temperature concentration, concentrated honey and index honey without nutrients!
The nectar collected by bees must be brewed repeatedly before it can become mature honey.
The principle of honey brewing is: firstly, physical action, that is, evaporation of excessive water in nectar reduces the water content from about 60% to about 20%, forming a high-concentration honey solution to inhibit the growth of bacteria;
The second is biochemical action, which converts the original sucrose and starch into glucose and fructose through the secretion of digestive enzymes by bees. This process usually takes 7- 15 days.
A variety of self-active substances added by bees in the brewing process are the value of honey.
"Water honey" is the nectar collected by many merchants in order to increase production. Most of them take honey in 1-3 days. Because it is not fully brewed by bees, although it is considered real honey, "water honey" has high water content, lack of nutrients and basically zero antibacterial and bacteriostatic effects.
Unfortunately, many unscrupulous merchants specialize in recycling such immature "water honey", which has low price and large output, but water honey is easy to ferment and deteriorate;
In order to prolong the shelf life of water honey and make it reach the national standard, some merchants use honey concentration machines to heat and evaporate water at a high temperature above 60°C to process water honey into "concentrated honey", which is very common in supermarkets.
Although this kind of "concentrated honey" is not easy to ferment and deteriorate, the water honey, which was originally lacking in nutrition, is evaporated at high temperature, which means that it has almost no nutrition, and it is all sugar. Long-term consumption will be harmful to health, and the state strictly stipulates it.
Although concentrated honey and supermarket honey look very thick, they have no natural floral fragrance of honey at all, and their shapes and colors are almost the same, and there is not much difference in the flavors of honey varieties from various flower sources.
However, the color, fragrance and taste of natural mature honey are completely different, and the unique flavor will not be the same, and its nutritional value is incomparable to concentrated honey.
Honey has been regarded as the "top grade in medicine" since ancient times, and it will benefit greatly if you take it regularly! However, there are so many adulterated honey on the market that the field herding bees once again remind us that we must choose "naturally mature honey" when eating honey! When buying honey, look for the honey produced by regular manufacturers, and ask them to issue a honey component test report. I hope everyone can really feel the benefits that honey brings us!
A couple in my village have kept bees for decades, and they often drink honey and royal jelly. They don't feel any different from us.
After drinking/kloc-0 for more than 0/0 years, I found that I was almost the same as my peers who didn't drink it, but I became diabetic.,,,, It was slowly discovered that what I drank every day was not honey, but white sugar honey. . . . . .
There is an article in People's Daily, which lists some common misunderstandings in life, saying that honey is sugar and has no other ingredients.
There is a great chance of drinking high blood sugar, because there are too many fake honey now, and only a few people can drink it. Most people drink invert syrup, you think! There are only a few beekeepers, and the whole country drinks honey for health, which is not enough! Can the Bureau of Statistics count the honey production in the whole country? In 2005, some people here raised more than a dozen boxes of bees. Where should I put a plastic bucket weighing 50 kg every day? 3 yuan weighs one kg, and many elderly people buy more than 10 kg! It is estimated that it is all converted syrup boiled with white sugar. Feeding white sugar to bees every day can't produce so much!
I have been drinking a cup of honey water every morning since I was 20 years old. I am 43 years old this year. My skin is particularly smooth and tender, and there are no fine lines on my face.
I have been beekeeping for 3 years and have been drinking honey for 2 years. The only thing I can feel is that as long as I get a little cold before, I will have an oral ulcer, and it will be very painful for a month. After drinking honey water every day, I seldom get sick. I feel a little heavy when I catch cold, and I feel that my mouth ulcer is coming out. I will be fine soon if I drink more honey water.
If you want to drink honey, I suggest you buy it from a beekeeper. Most of the honey in the supermarket is a processed concentrated additive, the main purpose of which is to prolong the sale period and not deteriorate easily.
Bee farmers' honey generally produces honey with Baume degree of 4 1 degree, which has a shelf life of 6 months in a sealed state. After opening, honey will absorb moisture in the air and will ferment and deteriorate.
I want to buy good honey. I bought a Baume meter online for only about 100 yuan. I went to the beekeeper to buy it on the spot, and the Baume of 4 1 degree is the mature honey. It is recommended not to buy cauliflower honey. No matter how high the concentration is, cauliflower honey will feel a little fermented after naturally melting after crystallization. The quality of cauliflower honey is not high.
I grew up drinking honey.
