The source of thorn honey is thorns. Thorn is a barren, drought-resistant plant that flows more honey. Whenever the thorns bloom season, each group of bees can produce 15 to 20 kilograms of honey. The honey is colorful and translucent amber; the crystals are fine and milky, with fragrant smell and sweet taste, and the concentration is 41 degrees to 42 degrees. Honey contains glucose 32.9%, fructose 41.4%, acidity of 2.13%, enzyme degree of 179%, sugar content of 0.27%, and contains more than 10 kinds of minerals and proteins, amino acids, vitamins, inorganic acids, etc., not only is the ideal nourishing nutritious food, but also can be cough and moistening the lungs, stomach and laxative, preventing the summer heat and clearing the heart, and has the effect of tonic and beneficial to the body, prolonging the life of the efficacy.
Introduction
The abbreviation of thorn flower honey, also called thorn flower honey. It is one of the four famous honeys (thorn honey, jujube honey, acacia honey, lychee honey); it is also one of the most steadily harvested honeys every year in China's bulk honey sources.
Thorn honey (crystallization)
Thorn honey is light amber in color, low transparency, clear smell, sweet taste, slightly acidic, easy to crystallize, crystallization of delicate milky white, color aggravation after a long time.
Glucose is the nutrient most consumed by brain cells, so thorn honey is perfect for brain workers, students and office workers.
The honey of thorns promotes the recovery of physical strength, and is also ideal for those who are easily sleepy after meals, have high physical exertion, and are under mental stress.
Glucose is the food for intestinal probiotics, and consuming thorn honey with high glucose content is good for intestinal health.

Natural ripe thorns honey
Promote digestion and absorption, appetizer, spleen, regulating the stomach and intestines, beneficial to qi and tonifying the middle, sweating and heat dissipation, dispersal of cold to clear the eyes. It is suitable for those who have insufficient qi and blood, wind and headache, red eyes and insomnia. Regular consumption of thorn honey, can enhance the body's specific and non-specific immune function, improve physical fitness, cardiovascular system diseases, such as strengthening the heart, improve blood circulation has an auxiliary therapeutic effect, with the drainage of pus and toxins, pain and weakness of the efficacy of the complementary.
Honey source
The honey source of thorn honey is the flower of thorns, which is a kind of shrub. Thorns alias thorns, thorn tips, thorn tree, yellow thorns, Verbenaceae. Deciduous shrubs.
Thorn
Palmately compound leaves, leaflet margins with notched serrations; panicle, flower basket purple, drupe. Generally grows at an altitude of 1000 meters below the ravine, valley bottom, river banks roadside and wasteland. Drought-resistant, barren, but with deep soil, fertile soil, moisture at the growth of better, more nectar flow.
Contraindications and side effects
1, honey can not be eaten with leeks, scallions, carp, tofu, onions.
2, natural honey containing active enzymes can not be heated to more than 40 degrees Celsius, otherwise the active enzymes will be killed by high temperature, destroying the nutrients.
Frequently Asked Questions
Thorny honey contains more glucose, so it is easy to crystallize essentially glucose from the honey precipitation is separated from a phenomenon and process. From the viewpoint of molecular theory, glucose molecules in the honey was originally no order in the movement, but the honey glucose more than its solubility, to become a supersaturated solution, there is a part of the glucose molecules in the honey began to move regularly, arranged up to form a tiny crystalline nucleus, a crystallization center, more glucose molecules regularly arranged on all sides, and gradually form a larger crystal, from the honey to separate. More glucose molecules are regularly arranged on all sides of it, gradually forming larger crystals that separate from the honey, which is called honey crystallization. If your home to buy honey crystallization is not too much to worry about, just ice and water 2 different forms of manifestation, but some unscrupulous elements in the honey with sugar will also be crystallized, at this time with a twist of the hand, if the honey crystallization of hard, shelving the hand is added to the sugar of the processed honey.
After the crystallization of the treatment:
1, the crystallization of honey along with the bottle soaked in hot water, but pay attention to the hot water temperature must be less than 50 degrees Celsius, because the temperature will be too high to make the honey enzyme inactivation, vitamin loss.
2. You can put the bottle into a pot of cold water and heat it slowly. When the water temperature reaches 50-60 degrees, the sediment will melt naturally and will not settle again.
3. Leave it to melt naturally in summer.
Honey preservation:
Honey preservation is preferred to be placed in a low-temperature place away from light. As honey is a weakly acidic liquid that can react chemically with metals, it will react chemically when it comes into contact with metals such as lead, zinc and iron during storage. Therefore, non-metallic containers such as ceramics, glass bottles and non-toxic plastic buckets should be used to store honey. Honey should also be stored in a way that prevents odor, moisture, fermentation and contamination. In order to avoid crosstalk and contamination, it should not be stored with odorous items (e.g. gasoline, alcohol, garlic, etc.), corrosive items (e.g. fertilizers, pesticides, lime, alkali, nitrate, etc.), or unhygienic items (e.g. waste products, livestock products, etc.). The preservation period of honey state regulations bottled honey shelf life of 18 months. But capped mature concentration of bees can also shelf life for many years. But eating honey fresh is good, because fresh honey is generally better color, aroma, taste and texture.
The amount of honey
The general dosage of honey is: adults take 60 to 100 grams per day is more appropriate, the most
Not more than 200 grams, divided into the morning, middle and evening three times. Take a larger dose, for example, 30-60 grams in the morning; 40-80 grams in middle age; 30-60 grams in the evening. Children are better off taking 30 grams per day, which can be divided into several times with warm water. When used for treatment, 2 months for a course of treatment, you can receive significant results. The size of the dosage is mainly different from the purpose and need of taking honey. Under normal circumstances, the dosage for treatment is a little larger, and the dosage for health care is appropriately smaller. At the same time also need to be flexible according to each person's physical reality, such as the dosage is too small will not achieve the corresponding effect, the dosage is too large is also unnecessary, need to be determined by the discretion of the individual p>
