    Health experts considered honey as a treasure chest of nutritional and medicinal value. Did you know that honey, which is packed with antibacterial and antifungal properties, has been a nutrition powerhouse for ages? In fact, it has been used as a kitchen staple since the early period of Egyptian tombs! That's quite surprising. Extracted from beehives, this sweet golden liquid offers a host of nutritional benefits depending on its variety. Say for example, raw honey—the unpasteurized version of honey we typically used— is fat-free, sodium-free, and cholesterol-free, according to the National Honey Board. Plus, it contains 80 percent carbohydrates, 64calories, 18 percent water, as well as two percent amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. Let's dig deeper. Here are the health benefits of honey: 1. Honey is a great energy drink. Loaded with all-natural energy with 17 grams of carbohydrates per tablespoon, honey is believed to be an effective energy drink. The thing with honey is that it can directly plunge into the bloodstream and can bring out a quick energy boost. The rise in blood sugar plays as a short-term source of energy for your exercise, especially during long endurance workouts. 2. Honey helps relieves allergies. Since honey offers anti-inflammatory effects and has the ability to ease coughs, health experts suspect that honey might be an effective component in reducing symptoms of seasonal allergy. There are no clinical studies proving its effectiveness, though. But according to Dr. Matthew Brennecke, a board certified naturopathic doctor, honey plays like a natural vaccine. This is because honey is loaded with small amounts of pollen. And every time our body is exposed to it, an immune response occurs, which generates antibodies to the pollen. Now, guess what? After repeated exposure, our body may develop antibodies and become accustomed to the presence of pollen. Hence, minimal histamine is released, resulting in a minimal allergic response. 3. Honey can act as a cough suppressant. Who would have thought that honey can be the all-natural remedy to colds? And it's proven. In a 2012 study published in the journal Pediatrics, experts found out that two teaspoons of honey remedied a persistent cough (two teaspoons?). In the study, kids between 1 year and 5 years old with nighttime cough, coughed less frequently when they consumed 2 teaspoons of honey thirty minutes before bedtime. How is that possible? Here's what happened: Honey's thick golden liquid coats the throat. In addition, the sweet taste is believed to provoke nerve endings that safeguard the throat from unending coughing. What's more is that it can be used in treating upper respiratory tract infections. 4. Honey betters sleep. Having trouble sleeping? Try honey. According to studies, honey can be an efficient remedy for sleepless nights. This happens due to insulin rise and the release of serotonin—a neurotransmitter that boosts mood as well as happiness. What happens next is that the body transforms serotonin into melatonin, a compound responsible for regulating sleep. In addition, the consistent rise in insulin may cause the tryptophan—an amino acid found in honey—to enter our brain. And when it enters, it is then converted into serotonin, then into melatonin. No doubt, honey is considered as an effective sleeping aid. Other health benefits of honey include: Memory booster and a treatment for wounds, burns, and dandruff. source: http://www.testxcore.com/health-benefits-of-honey-infographic/
