There are live enzymes in honey - when in contact with a metal spoon, these enzymes die.
We recommend serving or eating honey with a wooden or plastic spoon.
Honey contains a substance that helps our brain work better, and is one of the rare foods on earth that alone can sustain human life - one teaspoon of honey is enough to sustain human life for 24 hours.
The propolis that bees produce is one of the most powerful natural antibiotics - it is antibacterial, antiviral, can support the breakdown of parasitic infections, and is a great transporter of goodness throughout the body.
Some other fun facts about honey:
. Honey has no expiration date
. A bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1000 flowers, and produces less than a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime
. One of the first coins had a bee symbol on it
. The bodies of the great emperors of the world were buried in golden coffins and then covered with honey to prevent putrification
. The term "honeymoon" comes from the fact that newlyweds consumed honey for fertility after the wedding
Today we celebrate and thank the humble BEE!
