Three types of people should not eat honey

1. Babies under one year old should not eat honey.

Honey is easily contaminated by Clostridium botulinum during the brewing and transportation process, because bees may bring pollen and honey contaminated by Clostridium botulinum back to the hive during the process of collecting pollen. Botulinum toxin spores are very adaptable and can still survive at high temperatures of 100°C.

Because the gastrointestinal function of infants is weak and the detoxification function of the liver is poor, especially in infants less than 6 months old, botulinum toxin can easily multiply in the intestines and produce toxins, thus causing poisoning.

2. People with diabetes cannot take honey.

Every 100 grams of honey carbohydrates contains about 35 grams of glucose, about 40 grams of fructose, about 2 grams of sucrose, and about 1 gram of dextrin. Glucose and fructose are both monosaccharides. After entering the intestine, they can be directly absorbed into the blood without digestion, causing blood sugar to rise. Sucrose and dextrin can be absorbed after being slightly hydrolyzed. Therefore, the blood sugar-raising effect of honey is particularly obvious. From this point of view, diabetics cannot take honey.

3. Patients with liver cirrhosis cannot drink honey: Generally speaking, patients with hepatitis B are very suitable to drink honey, because the simple sugars provided by honey do not need to be decomposed and synthesized by the liver, which can reduce the burden on the liver, but patients with liver cirrhosis cannot. Drink honey as it can aggravate liver fibrosis.
