About Honey
Honey is almost entirely natural sugar, a combination of fructose and glucose produced by bees from flower nectar. Fat and protein are negligible, and fiber is nearly absent. What distinguishes honey from refined sugar is its trace mineral content, its enzymes, and in raw forms its antimicrobial compounds, though most commercial honey is pasteurized, which reduces those properties. The flavor varies considerably by floral source, from light clover honey to deeply aromatic buckwheat. Used as a sweetener it behaves similarly to sugar but with a slightly different sweetness profile and more complexity of flavor.
