The Health Benefits of Honey
As far back as the history books show, honey has been used as more than just a sweetener but also as a health-giving ingredient imperative in the treatment of wounds and diseases. High in bioactive plant compounds and antioxidants, the regular ingestion of honey is linked to reduced cases of heart attacks, strokes, and certain types of cancer. One of the best choices for diabetics trying to avoid sugar, honey does not spike blood sugar levels the same way refined white sugar does. Making it the ideal alternative sweetener.
But the health benefits don’t end there, the topical treatment of wounds and burns with honey dates back to ancient Egypt, which is still common practice to this day thanks to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities. Truly a wonder food, it doesn’t hurt that honey is also sinfully delicious!
We love to use this health-giving condiment in several ways. Excellent for replacing some or all of the sugar in recipes, it helps keep baked goods moist. When added to marinades or glazes, honey sweetens while giving an excellent full-bodied consistency perfect for coating anything from meats to vegetables.
