The healthiest form of honey is raw honey. What is the difference between raw honey and commercial honey? Raw honey is unfiltered. It has textured crystals, particles of bee pollen, honeycomb bits, propolis and broken bee wing fragments. It is low in moisture and high in antioxidants benefits. It has a, naturally, milky appearance containing the most nutritional value with the concentrated enzyme, amylase.
On the contrary, commercial honey, found at grocery stores or supermarkets, has been heated and filtered. This process allows a cleaner, smoother, more eye-appealing product to store on shelves for purchase. When the commercial type of honey is heated and filtered, its natural enzymes are partially destroyed. These enzymes are the natural activators for its vitamins and minerals. Although commercial honey may have an eye-appealing appearance, it is not as healthful or nutritious as raw honey.
Honey contains healthful, natural, vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6 and C. Its natural minerals include: magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium chlorine, sulphur, iron, phosphate, copper, iodine and zinc. Its sugars include glucose and fructose.
