Why Buy Raw Unfiltered Honey?

Raw unfiltered honey is unheated and unfiltered honey with zero additives containing the natural bee pollens, digestive enzymes, antioxidants, and energy providing elements health food researchers and raw food proponents have found beneficial to the human body. 

Bee Pollen contained in raw honey contains 22 amino acids, 27 minerals and a spectrum of vitamins. Raw honey contains over 5000 enzymes including amylase, a digestive enzyme for carbohydrates. The benefit of ingesting naturally occurring enzymes such as amylase is that it reduces the burden on the body to produce these enzymes itself to digest the food. Raw honey has an exceptionally high concentration of enzymes and provides an outstanding source of energy for the body. 

Antioxidants, found in raw honey are compounds that provide natural defenses against cell damage by neutralizing unstable oxygen molecules known as free radicals. Antioxidant compounds in raw honey are believed to aid the body in fighting cancer and heart disease as well as a host of other degenerative diseases.  Honey contains high antioxidant levels equivalent to that of spinach, or even strawberries, and unique to honey is pinocembrin, an antioxidant associated with improved brain functioning.  

The human body was designed to digest natural sugars such as raw honey more readily than refined sugars as evidenced in part by the fact that honey ingestion does not produce the radical effect on blood sugar levels that refined sugar does, nor does it produce the weight gain associated with refined sugar ingestion.Refined sugar is void of nutritional value and has the ultimate effect of depleting the body of vitamins and minerals while contributing to the alarming rate of diabetes. According to Mike and Stuart McInnes, authors of The Hibernation Diet, Raw unfiltered honey, taken prior to sleep and processed by the liver provides the exact metering of glucose and fructose the body needs to facilitate  rest while providing  the brain the food it requires during the sleep cycle  to awaken alert.

Use raw unfiltered honey as the natural healthy alternative to processed sugars and high fructose corn syrup, and as a dietary supplement.
