    Can honey The effect of honey on the human body: 1. It is good for laxative, and has the effect of anti-inflammatory, expectorant and cough 2. Honey has the effect of promoting the healing of trauma, ulcers and burns 3. It can eliminate fatigue as soon as possible and restore physical strength 4. It can beautify and nourish the face, apply it to the face every morning and evening, and massage it for 5-10 minutes Precautions: It cannot be soaked in boiling water to eat, and the water temperature is generally about 40.

    The presence of precipitation underneath honey is not necessarily a quality problem, but glucose crystallization, which is a physical property of honey. Honey is a sweet substance made by bees to collect the nectar of plants, brewed by bees, at room temperature (20 degrees), honey is a viscous transparent gelatinous liquid, specific gravity, pH value of 4-5, generally light color, light aroma; dark in color, with a strong aroma; The more viscous the honey, the higher the concentration, and the thinner the lower the concentration. When honey comes into contact with air, it can absorb water from the air, making honey thinner and easier to ferment.

    Fermented honey has an alcoholic and acetic sour taste. The crystallization of honey is a physical phenomenon in which honey changes from a liquid state to a solid state, with a dark to light color, but its composition does not change, and the bees clump together due to glucose particles under suitable conditions. It forms a crystalline block, which is most likely to crystallize at 13-14 hours, once the outside temperature exceeds 40, the crystalline honey will slowly dissolve, from solid to liquid, but after a short time, the temperature drops and crystallizes.

    There are many ways to classify honey, and there is no unified classification standard in the world. In China, it is divided according to the type of nectar source: such as acacia honey, citrus honey, jujube nectar, etc.; Divided by color shade:

    dark honey, light honey; According to the harvesting method: nest honey and separated honey; According to the honey production season: spring honey, summer honey, autumn honey, winter honey.

    The quality grade standard of honey in China is divided into three and four grades, and the grade standard is divided according to the color and smell, where the color is light and the smell is fragrant, people are more acceptable in eating habits, and think that the grade is higher, but the nutritional content of the honey with a low grade is not worse than the high grade. First-class honey: lychee honey, acacia honey, linden honey, milk vetch honey, vitex honey, etc. Second-class honey:

    Jujube nectar, rape honey, cotton honey, etc. Third-class honey: black tree honey, rubber honey and other outer honey: buckwheat honey, eucalyptus honey.

    When you go to the supermarket, you may see the label "Honey for Kids" or "Honey for Seniors". It's just a trick of the business, it's just a hype. Honey is produced by bees, and humans just fill it.

    Actually,This "honey for children" or "honey for the elderly" and other countries have long been called "honey" by people, and there is no difference, everyone should pay attention when buying honey and do not be blind.

    Actually,Honey is not suitable for infants under one year of age. Due to the soil and dust of the world, there is a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum that is widely distributed and is also found in pollen. When bees collect honey, they collect the bacteria along with the hive.

    Bacteria are resistant to both high and low temperatures, and honey containing bacteria does not cause discomfort after drinkingBut,Due to the low immunity of babies under one year of age, it is easy to ingest Clostridium botulinum. It multiplies in the intestines and produces toxins, which are poorly detoxified, leading to food poisoning.

    Since 1976, when humans recognized the situation, more than 1,500 babies have been poisoned with honey in the United States. Of these, 95% of poisoning incidents occurred in infants between 6 weeks and 6 months of age. Other foods that contain honey may also contain Clostridium botulinum spores.

    Repeated consumption may also cause botulism in infants, so babies before 12 months of age should avoid pacifiers containing honey as well as food. Also be careful not to add honey in baby food.

    Therefore, parents should be cautious about giving honey to infants under the age of one year to avoid unnecessary harm.

    There is a baby at home, the whole family cherishes, some friends feel that the child's diet is not sweet, add some honey to the food to increase the taste, the child eats very fragrant, in fact, this practice is not right, the baby must not eat honey within one year old, some people say that it is not because honey will cause "precocious puberty", not because of this, because honey will contain a lot of substances, including botulinum toxin, may cause baby poisoning, therefore, do not give her to eat.

    As early as a few years ago, the World Health Organization issued a report that honey contains bacteria, which may cause poisoning in babies within one year old, so it should be paid attention to, and babies under one year old should not be fed honey. Many people say, isn't honey a natural nutrient? How can it still be poisoned, it is because honey is easy to be infected with bacteria in the process of storage and transportation, and the resistance of the baby within one year old is still very weak, just in case, for the safety of the child, it is better not to give him honey.

    If the baby within one year old did not pay attention to the honey, then do not be too nervous, pay attention to the child's mental condition in time, within 36 hours to see if the child has diarrhea, vomiting, if the above symptoms or dyspnea, etc., must go to the regular hospital in time. Because honey may be infected with botulinum toxin, the baby's detoxification function is weaker, and it is possible that poisoning will cause the child to have difficulty breathing.

    Honey is a kind of nutrition, although it is a natural good thing, but there are still taboos to eat, we must not ignore, in addition to the baby can not eat within one year old, friends with diabetes should also fast, because honey has a lot of fructose and glucose, are simple sugars, can be directly absorbed into the blood, have a certain impact on blood sugar, if diabetics take it, it will cause blood sugar to rise, harmful to the body, so diabetics do not need to eat honey, everyone should remember.

    Babies over 1 year old can drink honey, and babies under the age of 1 should not eat honey. In the process of taking pollen to make honey, bees often bring the pollen and nectar with bacteria back to the hive, so that the honey is contaminated with Clostridium botulinum. Due to the unstable balance of intestinal microbial ecology and poor disease resistance in infants, Clostridium botulinum can multiply in the intestine and produce toxins, while the detoxification function of the liver is poor, thus causing botulinum food poisoning.
