NATURAL HONEY AND HOW TO KNOW ITS ORIGINALITY

                                                 

Natural honey is produced by BEES from the sugary secretions of plant. I call it natural honey because there are different ways of producing honey. Honey can be produced using sugar, sugar cane and date or mixture of raw honey with fake honey(sugar, sugar cane and date honey). HONEY is the oldest sweeteners on earth, that gives so many health benefit to the body like healing wounds energizes body, immune booster, fight bacterials in the body etc.
 

HOW TO TEST THE ORIGINALITY OF HONEY

Without testing it is very hard to differentiate between natural or pure honey to fake honey. I said it before that fake honey is the
honey generated from sugar, sugar cane and date and also, some people combine both fake and pure honey in other to have quantity rather than quality.
In a nutshell, the common ways of testing the purity or originality of honey are:

1:  Put a small drop of  honey on your thumb and then check to see if its spread around your thumb. if it does it is not pure. pure honey will stay on your thumb.

2: Fill a glass with water and add 1 tablespoon of honey into it, adulterated honey will dissolve in the water and pure honey will stay and not spread.

3:  Take a dried matchstick dip it right into the honey then strike it on the match box as if you want to light it if the honey is pure the matchstick will bring out light with ease the flame will also keep burning off the honey. if it is fake it will light because fake honey contains moisture.
