The reason honey is such a good sugar substitute (even for diabetics) is that it contains valuable minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants that sugar does not. Sugar is an “empty” carbohydrate, whereas honey packs a punch nutritionally. It has been linked to heart health, reduction of belly fat, and of course, is wonderful for treating sore throats, coughs, and even constipation.

Royal Jelly is as close to a complete food as is possible to find. It is loaded with all the compounds found in honey plus more! It is the substance used to feed the Queen Bee (who lives the longest) and it is famous for nutritive and powerful fertility and estrogenic properties. Unlike honey which is sweet tasting, royal jelly is bitter.
