    Hello, honey can't be eaten if it gets into the water and grows worms.

    Efficacy and role of honey.

    Honey is nectar made in a hive by insect bees from the flowers of flowering plants. Bees take nectar or secretions with a water content of about 80% from the flowers of plants, store them in their second stomach, ferment for 30 minutes under the action of invertase in the body, return to the hive and spit out, the temperature in the hive is often maintained at about 35, after a period of time, the water evaporates to become honey with a moisture content of less than 20%, stored in the nest hole, and sealed with beeswax. In addition to glucose and fructose, honey contains various vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

    1 kg of honey contains 2940 calories. Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugar, which crystallizes at low temperatures, and it is glucose that produces crystals, and the part that does not crystallize is mainly fructose.

    Efficacy and function of honey: skin care and beauty, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, promote tissue regeneration, promote digestion, improve immunity, promote longevity, improve sleep, liver protection, anti-fatigue, promote children's growth and development, protect cardiovascular, moisten the lungs and relieve cough, etc.

    No. How to preserve honey:

    After buying honey at home, store it in non-metallic containers such as ceramics and non-toxic plastics, not iron containers! Honey should be placed in a cool, dry, clean, ventilated, temperature maintenance 5 10, air humidity not more than 75% environment.

    Honey should be sealed and stored, and the tools used to take honey should be washed and wiped dry to prevent moisture from entering, and the water dissolved in honey is easy to ferment and deteriorate.

    Honey should be stored at a low temperature and away from light. Since honey is a weakly acidic liquid, it can react chemically with metals, and chemical reactions will occur when it comes into contact with metals such as lead, zinc, and iron during storage. Therefore, non-metallic containers such as ceramics, glass bottles, non-toxic plastic drums and other containers should be used to store honey.

    During the storage process, honey should also be protected from cross-flavoring, wetness, fermentation, pollution, etc. In order to avoid odor and pollution, it is not allowed to store with odorous items (such as gasoline, alcohol, garlic, etc.), corrosive items (such as fertilizers, pesticides, lime, alkali, nitrate, etc.) or unhygienic items (such as waste products, animal products, etc.).

    The honey is placed at room temperature for a long time, and there is no mildew or qualitative change, the main reason is that honey has a strong antibacterial effect on various bacteria. Honey contains antioxidants, but also because it is acidic and has a high sugar content, it maintains a high penetration power, and microorganisms cannot survive in this environment.

    At present, the state stipulates that the shelf life of bottled honey is 18 months. However, bees with high cap maturity concentrations can also last for many years. However, it is better to eat fresh honey, because fresh honey generally has a better color, aroma and taste.

    Honey that has been stored for a long time is edible and will not be harmful to the body as long as it has not deteriorated. It's just that long-aged honey has a slightly worse nutritional value than fresh honey.

    Second, about whether it has deteriorated:

    Honey will deteriorate after a long time, which is manifested in three aspects:

    One is that the taste becomes more sour;

    The second is to become very thin (normal honey is very viscous, and the best osmanthus nectar can even be wrapped in clean paper, rather than in a bucket or bottle, which shows its viscosity). Honey spoilage is mainly caused by an increase in temperature, so a refrigerator can solve this problem.

    The third is that there are a lot of gray bubbles on the honey, indicating that a part of the organic matter in the honey is decomposed, fermented and bubbled, and turned into a gas overflow, at this time, even if the honey has not deteriorated, the nutritional value has been reduced.

    3. On whether it can be eaten:

    Your honey is not tightly sealed, it is not stored at low temperature, it is watery, and it has been left for at least three years, and it can be determined that it has begun to deteriorate. It's best not to drink it anymore, drinking it may not cause any harm to the body, but it doesn't have much nutritional value.
