Forest Honey stands out among the very unique honey varieties for the particular health benefits it entails. It presents a dark amber color, and it is generally described as less sweet than other honey varieties. Forest honey is liquid, which crystallize very slowly, if ever.
Benefits of consuming FOREST HONEY:

This honey’s beneficial antioxidant compounds include phenols, ascorbic acid, glucose oxidase, catalase, and peroxidase
2. Anti-inflammatory - The anti-inflammatory and healing properties of honey have been long acknowledged by traditional medicine and, more recently, backed from a scientific perspective of honey’s health benefits. Apart from its anti-inflammatory action, Forest Honey also acts as an anti-bacterial and antifungal.
3. A boost for the immune system - The phytonutrients present in high-quality raw Forest Honey generate a boost for the body’s immune system, combining its antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties.
4. Skin benefits – as Forest Honey acts as an anti-inflammatory, it treats skin conditions such as acne and psoriasis. This honey’s powerful antioxidant activity is also linked to skin nourishment, which in turn translates into anti-ageing properties.
5. Treats health conditions - Forest Honey presents a high content in vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and potassium. As such, it’s been recommended for people with iron-deficiency disorders, including diseases such as anemia, and those battling with neuro-related challenges such as stress or continuous physical and mental efforts.
