Honey

Honey is a viscous, golden liquid made by bees. It includes trace levels of vitamins and minerals, as well as a plethora of plant components with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, the sorts of plant compounds in honey are determined by a variety of factors, including the species of bee that created the honey and the type of flower the bee was feeding on.

Honey polyphenols, for example, may help control inflammation in your body. In addition, honey has a slightly lower glycemic index (GI) than table sugar. Because of these properties, it may be healthier than refined sugar. If you opt to use honey, do it sparingly because it is still heavy in sugar and calories.
