Honey, a good habit!
Used as a sweetener for centuries, honey is nowadays rediscovered all over the world as a source of natural energy and a component of a balanced diet.
Sugars are sources of physical energy. All carbohydrates, from ordinary sugar to complex carbohydrates (such as in cereals or bread) have to be broken down into glucose (grape sugar) and fructose (fruit sugar) before they can supply our body with energy. This process alone requires time and energy.
Honey consists for at least 2/3 of fructose and glucose. These substances are immediately absorbed by our body without any form of decomposition. Honey is therefore a direct source of energy without any intermediate processing.
This unique combination of natural sugars appears to be very effective for relieving fatigue and improving performance.
More than concentrated energy, honey also containsvitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acids. All essential elements of a balanced diet. Although these elements are not present to a sufficient extent to meet our daily needs, honey nevertheless helps to reach these quantities.
Honey should be included in your daily diet next to the basic elements. On bread, in cereals, dairy products or cottage cheese, as a part of your meals. In hot drinks or in one of the many household remedies known and used all over the world.
Indeed: honey is a good habit.
