My Jar of Honey is Hard. Is it Bad?
Your honey is good, forever! In warm weather, you can leave your jar of honey in the window sill and let Mother Nature do the work. In cooler temperatures, we recommend a warm water bath for a few minutes.
How Can I Use My Honey?

How Do Bees Make Honey?
Honey is the sweet fluid produced by honeybees from the nectar of flowers. Worker honeybees transform the floral nectar that they gather into honey by adding enzymes loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants!
What are Some Health Benefits of Honey?
Honey has many health benefits.
- Honey is rich in phenolic acids and flavonoids, which are a source of natural antioxidants and is free of fat and cholesterol!
- Honey has a healthy Glycemic Index (GI), meaning that its sugars can be gradually absorbed into the bloodstream to result in better digestion.We should try to avoid eating excessive high-glycemic foods which would prompt an elevated insulin release in our body as a result of the pancreas being stimulated to metabolize the sudden surge of glucose into the blood.
- Raw Honey is the only sugar on the planet that our body does not store, so many sugar related complications do not apply to raw honey!
- With all these antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals raw honey is a huge immune system booster.
- A teaspoon of honey at bedtime is a natural sleep aid.
