Honey is a natural sugar that is easier for your body to process and has many benefits. I use honey in salad dressings to sweeten.
You can do your research - I found this on the internet... anti-tumor effects of honey have been examined using several cancer cell lines and tissue. Honey has been proven to decrease the tumorigenicity of different cancer types including breast, lung, skin, renal, prostate, colorectal, and cervical cancer.
Buying honey from a local farmer or bee maid honey is in its purest form. Anything from China is not.
