Raw Honey Benefits including Health and Diet
The health benefits of honey - like all foods - depend on the quality of the
honey. But in this case, the situation is even more extreme, because the pollen
that collects on the bees’ legs as they move from plant to plant is only as

often removes many of the phytonutrients found in raw honey as it exists in the
hive. Raw honey, for example, contains small amounts of the same resins found in
propolis. Propolis, sometimes called "bee glue," is actually a complex mixture
of resins and other substances that honeybees use to seal the hive and make it
safe from bacteria and other micro-organisms.
