Everyone is cognizant of what and how much they consume. These days, health and fitness are hot subjects. Growing food adulteration and pollution have reduced the quality of the food you eat, including vegetables, fruits, cereals, dairy products, and so on.
Honey is one of the most adulterated food items in the world. Furthermore, a recent study conducted by the Centre for Science and Environment revealed that the great majority of honey samples obtained from both large and small businesses failed an advanced quality control test. It is crucial at this point to check the honey you consume. More importantly, you must eat the appropriate honey. Here are seven different varieties of raw honey you may consume.
Different Varieties Of Raw Varieties Of Honey
The following are varieties of raw and unprocessed honey:
Rapeseed Honey
The production of canola honey, or rapeseed honey, is attributed to honeybees pollinating large amounts of the rapeseed plant. It looks white or buttery-yellow, tastes somewhat spicy, and smells like cabbage. It has a high antioxidant content, speeds up the healing of burns and wounds, reduces the length of diarrhoea, and eases cough and cold symptoms.
Eucalyptus Honey
The nectar of eucalyptus flowers is used to make eucalyptus honey. Eucalyptus honey is mostly produced in Australia. It tastes quite herbal and smells somewhat medicinal. Along with being strong in antioxidants, it is also antibacterial and a fantastic source of vitamins and minerals.
Acacia Honey
The nectar of the black locust, sometimes referred to as the false acacia tree, is used to make acacia honey. Compared to conventional honey, it usually has a far lighter hue and a nearly translucent appearance. It may aid in the healing of wounds and the treatment of acne due to its potent antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
Sunflower Honey
Sunflower fields in Nagpur, Maharashtra, are harvested for sunflower honey in the winter. It has a distinctly bright yellow tint and is recommended for respiratory, kidney, and stomach-intestine issues, as well as heart and blood vessel conditions in particular.
Jamun Honey
Bees that primarily feed on Indian blackberries, popularly known as jamun, generate jamun honey. It is harvested in the southern Karnataka area in August, with the blooming of the Jamun flowers. Compared to other types of honey, it is less sweet and has a dark amber hue.
Multiflora Honey
When honeybees eat many flowers in the spring, they naturally produce multiflora honey. It looks creamy, has a unique smell of flower nectar, and has a really nice fragrant scent. It can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure, allergies, skin conditions, colds, fevers, throat infections, and gum infections.
With so much adulteration in the market, especially in the honey industry, it is always recommended to make an informed decision. These varieties not only provide you with genuine honey but also a great flavour to your daily life which adulterated varieties cannot replicate.
