BENEFITS OF TAKING HONEY

Honey is a sweet, thick sugary solution made by bees. The composition of honey consists of varying proportions of fructose, glucose, water, oil and special enzymes produced by bees.
Honey was commonly known as a natural sweetener derived or made from flower nectar collected by bees from various kind of flowers. The first step in making honey begins when field bees fly from flower to flower collecting the sweet juices or nectar that a flower provide with their tongues. The field bees suck out nectar and store it in sacs within their bodies. After filling their sacs with these sweet juices, the field bees fly back to their bee hive and regurgitate the stored nectar into the mouth of house bees.
These house bees are assigned the job of adding enzymes from their bodies to the nectar into honey. Lastly the nectar is stored in a cell of a honey comb. Over time, the nectar ripens and becomes HONEY.
