Description
The bees collect honeydew from pine trees and convert it into honey, which is usually darker in color and has a higher inorganic salt content. This gives it special nutritional and therapeutic benefits. The taste is not as mild as flower honey. Pine honey crystallizes slowly due to its low natural glucose content. The nutritional value of pine honey is high, due to high concentrations of trace minerals.
Pine honey is rich in trace minerals (sodium, potassium, calcium and zinc).
Due to the absence of the enzyme Catalase, pine honey has strong antimicrobial properties. This antiseptic action helps fight inflammation such as coughs and gout. It helps the body detoxify and has a hepato-protective effect in cases of gastritis and stomach ulcers.
