Yes Winnie the Pooh is an avid honey lover and seeks it out by any means, but should he take a step back and ask himself “is this stuff good for me or bad for me?”

Lately there is a trend to consume high quality honeys (buckwheat, raw honey etc) to improve your health. The research shows that these types of honey are high in antioxidants such as flavonoids and phenolic acids that can help fight against diseases like cancer and heart disease. Honey has been shown to lower your bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase your good cholesterol (HDL). These are great benefits to consuming high quality honey, but it is very important to remember that honey is still high in sugar and calories. Therefore practice moderation when consuming honey and stay within your daily requirements for carbohydrates and calories to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Here are some of the types of high quality honeys you should use:

🌿 Raw unpasteurized honey.

🌿 Manuka.

🌿 Acacia.

🌿 Buckwheat.

🌿 Tupelo.

🌿 Wildflower.
