Answer #4

It’s not healthy for you, but it’s not bad for you. It would be better for you to put honey instead of sugar, depending on the amount you use. But honey isn’t bad for you when used moderately.

Answer #5

Although honey is a natural sweetener, it is considered a refined sugar because 96% of dry matter are simple sugars: fructose, glucose and sucrose.

Honey has the highest calorie content of all sugars with 65 calories/tablespoon, compared to the 48 calories/tablespoon found in table sugar. The increased calories are bound to cause increased blood serum fatty acids, as well as weight gain, on top of the risk of more cavities.

Pesticides used on farm crops and residential flowers have been found in commercial honey.

Honey can be fatal to an infant whose immature digestive tracts are unable to deal effectively with Botulinum Spore growth.

What nutrients or enzymes raw honey does contain are destroyed by manufacturers who heat it in order to give it a clear appearance to enhance sales.

If you are going to consume honey, make sure it is raw, unheated honey. Good to use in special cures, but not as an every day food. It is not much better than white or brown sugar.

Try to put in fruits instead of honey or other sugars. it can increase fiber, water intake and a good flavor.

Answer #6

I tend to think of honey as healthier but that could be just my prejudice. Honey is fructose and glucose while table sugar is sucrose which is fructose and glucose connected together. There is probably very little difference from a health point of view.

I usually sweeten my oatmeal with an herbal sweetener called stevia. No calories and many people think that unlike artificial sweeteners stevia is actually good for you.

Answer #7

Actually there is naturally refined brown sugar (molasses is in the sugar naturally, not added) and then there is the kind where manufacturers will add molasses to white sugar. Obviously, most manufacturers will take the easy route and do the latter, but if you look around, you can find natural brown sugar.

Answer #8

Honey in oatmeal is definately better than sugar. I also add a teaspoon or so of peanut butter in my oatmeal. Very tasty and good for you.

Answer #9

Known antioxidant compounds in honey are chrysin, pinobanksin, vitamin C, catalase, and pinocembrin. Unlike most other sweeteners, honey contains small amounts of a wide array of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants, which include a wide array of vitamins, such as vitamin B6, thiamin, niacin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid. Honey is composed of two main sugars, levulose and dextrose. These sugars do not need to be broken down by the digestive process, so honey is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, giving a quick energy boost to the body. It also contains protein, vitamins and minerals, but no cholesterol.
