Honey
Honey is largely composed of naturally formed glucose (sugar), but it also has a variety of other nutrients, such as amino acids, vitamins, minerals, iron, zinc, and antioxidants. Honey has many medicinal uses beyond just being a sweetener. It has been shown to reduce inflammation, boost antioxidant levels, and kill germs. Honey is used topically to treat burns and wounds and orally to alleviate coughing internally. It can also reduce the burning sensation caused by fever and colds.
Honey’s antibacterial and antimicrobial properties are a result of its natural composition. Because of its low pH and the presence of hydrogen peroxide and glucose oxidase, it is effective against infection-causing bacteria and fungi. Also, its distinct chemical makeup won’t promote yeast or bacterial growth.
Consume honey as often in dietary intakes such as food or hot and cold beverages to drastically reduce inflammation in certain blood vessels in the urinary system.
