Drinking honey water on an empty stomach is easy to increase the acidity in the body, and it will lead to gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer after a long time. It is recommended to drink honey water after meals 1.5-2 hours. At this time, honey is alkaline in the body and can neutralize the acidic environment in the body.

There is a saying in Chinese medicine: "salt water in the morning, honey soup in the evening."

It means: get up early every day and drink light salt water on an empty stomach, and drink honey water every night before going to bed.

The reason for this is that drinking light salt water in the morning can dilute the blood that feels very sticky, and it has a little anti-inflammatory effect, moistening the stomach and defecating; Drinking honey water at night is helpful to beauty and supplement various trace elements. Therefore, a more scientific way is to leave honey water to drink at night and get up in the morning to drink light salt water.

Of course, some friends have difficulty defecating, so drinking honey water early will help defecate, or it depends on personal physical condition.

First, eating honey regularly can ensure health and longevity.

Honey is made by worker bees collecting flowers and honey in their nests. There are spring, summer and winter honey according to different honey picking seasons, and winter honey has the best quality. Those taken from the wild, such as trees and caves, are called wild honey, also called stone honey or rock honey, which has the best quality, but the output is limited, so what is seen in the market is mostly honey taken from artificial beekeeping. The benefits of honey to human health have long been recognized. Shen Nong's Classic of Materia Medica lists honey as the top grade beneficial to people. The ancient Greeks thought honey was a "godsend gift", while the Vedas in India said that honey could prolong life. Tao Hongjing, a famous doctor in the Liang Dynasty in China, said: "The pills of Taoism use more honey, and those who cultivate immortals eat only honey, which means they can live forever." Although this statement is exaggerated, it still fully illustrates the role of honey in nutrition and medical care.

Nutritional analysis shows that honey contains about 35% glucose and 40% fructose, both of which can be directly absorbed and utilized by human body without digestion. Honey also contains a variety of inorganic salts similar to human serum concentration, and also contains a certain amount of vitamins B 1, B2, B6, iron, calcium, copper, manganese, phosphorus, potassium and so on. Honey contains amylase, lipase, invertase and so on, which is the most enzyme in food. Enzymes are promoters that help human digestion, absorption and a series of substance metabolism and chemical changes. The smell of honey is fragrant and delicious. From the perspective of nutrition and health care value, honey is not only a nourishing and longevity product, but also a good medicine for treating diseases.

As a medicine, honey has a history of thousands of years in China, with good efficacy. Li Shizhen, a medical scientist in the Ming Dynasty, pointed out: "There are five functions of honey as medicine: clearing heat; Buzhong also; Moisten and dry; Detoxification also; Pain-relieving. Being born is cool, so it can clear away heat. Maturity is warm, so it can make up for it. Sweet and peaceful, so you can detoxify. Soft and moist, so it can moisten dryness. Slow can go to the urgent, so it can stop the pain of muscle trauma in the heart, and it can cause the middle, so it can reconcile all kinds of medicines and work together with licorice. "

Clinically, honey can not only treat gastritis, but also add some drugs to honey to treat ulcer. For example, 6 grams of honey is washed with warm boiled water every morning, and it can be taken on an empty stomach or with 6 grams of salvia miltiorrhiza 15, 6 grams of radix aucklandiae and 6 grams of roasted licorice, and the decoction is washed with honey, which can treat gastroduodenal ulcer and various stomachaches. Why does honey have this effect? It turns out that honey is a potential alkaline food, and it contains inorganic salts such as manganese, which can promote the digestion and assimilation of food, thus reducing the gastrointestinal burden and relieving symptoms.

If 30 grams of honey and 0/5 grams of fried jujube kernel/kloc-are taken twice, it has a good calming effect and can cure palpitation, insomnia, forgetfulness and dreaminess. If you add 9 grams of Schisandra chinensis and 9 grams of Platycladus orientalis, you can also enhance your memory and improve your intelligence.

If patients with hypertension, liver disease and heart disease drink 1 cup of honey water on an empty stomach in the morning and evening, it will have certain curative effect on the above diseases.

You can also put a proper amount of honey in the hollow Sydney and stew it in water, which can eliminate the feeling of dry and itchy throat caused by dry climate and is conducive to the smooth cough of accumulated phlegm in the trachea. Therefore, after respiratory diseases are cured, if you can drink honey regularly, it will not only prevent the recurrence of old diseases, but also strengthen your health.

For growing children, honey is often their favorite food. Honey contains iron and folic acid, which can prevent and correct children's anemia.

In addition, honey also has the function of moistening muscles and whitening skin. Because honey is rich in nutrition and diverse, it is easy to be absorbed and utilized by the human body, and it has a moisturizing effect on the skin, especially when the winter climate is dry, eating more honey can prevent chapped skin.

It can ease emotions, inhibit pain, prevent infection and reduce menstrual blood loss. Magnesium has a sedative effect on the central nervous system of the brain, which can regulate psychology, eliminate nervousness and reduce stress.
