Travelling many many years and centuries back, when Aristaeus, the patron of beekeeping, was alive, we notice that honey was the miraculous food, since it had the ability to make people immortal, just like Aristaeus.
Hippocrates used honey as a medicine for diseases.
Aristotle was another man who believed that honey would prolong life.
The most important quality criteria for honey are colour, aroma and texture.
Honey is the natural sweetener that is not processed like sugar.
Honey has been proven since ancient times to be a medicine for the body as it helps to treat flu, calms coughs and sore throats due to its antioxidant properties and is good for the heart.
This natural product contains amino acids, vitamins, minerals and enzymes.
P.S.: To check the quality of the honey and whether it contains sugar syrup we can do it in a simple way.
If you want to check if the sugar syrup is too high or not, we can check if it is syrupy and check if it is a syrupy syrup. As soon as we leave it in the glass, the pure honey will sit at the bottom of the glass without differentiating, while honey containing sugar syrup and adulterated honey will dissolve.
