As much as I love to write about honey and extol its benefits, I am absolutely not advocating consumption of honey in huge quantity. One basic principle in dieting is: "Anything in excess is not good as it harms your body. Eat with prudence and in moderation." What I am suggesting is: replace sweeteners such as table sugar or artificial sweeteners with honey whenever possible. And, honey is not good for nothing other than just its taste. While being intrinsically sweet, honey is not the same as table sugar which has "empty calories", and has a lot more health benefits than what many people know. For a more compelling statement on the goodness of honey, read: Honey Isn't Just Sugar!
Just as many generations have used this natural sweetener as a precious ingredient in their home remedies and found healing in it, I earnestly hope you can also find a lifetime of delightful benefits in it.
