Can anyone tell me about the various classifications of honey and what honey, propolis, royal jelly

The main edible effect of royal jelly is to promote hematopoiesis, increase immunity, the main nutrients are protein, amino acids, royal jelly produced by different honey powder sources during the flowering period, its color is quite different.

For example, rape pulp is white, black locust pulp is milky white, milk vetch pulp is pale yellow, buckwheat pulp is reddish, purple locust pulp is purple, etc.

The main edible effects of honey are to clear heat, tonify, moisturize, relieve pain, detoxify, whiten, and make **smooth and delicate; The main nutrients are energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates, and sodium.

Royal jelly and honey are good natural health foods, royal jelly is the only unique royal jelly acid in nature, which can eliminate excessive free radicals in the human body and delay the rate of cell decay.

Reading guide]: Royal jelly may have been heard of by many people, it is a good health food, royal jelly is rich in nutritional value, but some people can't tell it from honey, so let's take a look with me.

Royal jelly is not honey, although it is produced by bees, but there is a big difference between royal jelly and honey in terms of production methods and nutritional value.

Honey is made from flowers picked by bees, but royal jelly is secreted by the pharyngeal glands of young worker bees that raise larvae in the hive, so the two are not the same food. Royal jelly is a slurry secreted from the laryngeal glands by worker bees after eating honey and bee pollen, while honey is a natural sweet substance made by bees collecting nectar and mixing their own substances. The main ingredient of royal jelly is protein in addition to water, whereas the main ingredient of honey is sugar.

In addition, honey is a viscous liquid, usually amber in color, and after crystallization, honey is solid, and royal jelly is a white or yellowish-white slurry.

Many people mistakenly think that royal jelly is an extract of honey, but in fact, the nutritional value of royal jelly is much higher than honey, protein accounts for about 50% of the dry matter of royal jelly, of which 2 3 is albumin, 1 3 is globulin, there are more than 12 kinds of protein in royal jelly, in addition to many small peptides. Amino acids account for about the dry weight of royal jelly, and the eight essential amino acids required by the human body exist in royal jelly, of which the proline content accounts for about 63% at the highest, and more than 30 kinds of amino acids have been found in royal jelly.

Nourish the body

Royal jelly is very rich in nutritional value, so it can supplement a variety of nutrients needed by the body, which is very suitable for supplementation. The effect of royal jelly is roughly to supplement nutrients, regulate the nervous system, enhance immunity, etc., but for the body, royal jelly can only play a conditioning role, if people are compared to an engine, royal jelly is more like engine oil, although it can improve the efficiency of the engine and can prolong the life of the engine, but it cannot repair the engine that has failed.

Helps with sleep

Royal jelly has the effect of calming the nerves and helping sleep, suitable for people who are usually prone to insomnia or poor sleep quality, royal jelly has an extremely significant regulatory effect on the nervous system, especially for neurasthenia, which is rich in glycine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid, glycine can inhibit the activity of cranial nerve cells, and aspartic acid and glutamic acid can excite brain nerve cells, and at the same time contain a certain amount of acetylcholine in royal jelly, acetylcholine can play a health care role in the human nervous system, Therefore, people who often suffer from insomnia take royal jelly not only to increase the speed of falling asleep, but also to improve the quality of sleep.

Beauty and skin care

Royal jelly is a very good beauty food for women, because royal jelly is rich in vitamins and proteins, it also contains SOD enzymes, and has a bactericidal effect, it is a precious beauty product, long-term use, **ruddy, shiny, beautiful. In addition, royal jelly contains protein Paulmone, which circulates throughout the body with blood after taking it, which helps to rejuvenate the function of ** and muscle tissue.

1. Look at the gloss and color of all the honey: the color of real honey is better with light white texture, light yellow or amber, and light light color is better; The gloss is not very translucent. Fake honey is bright in color, boiled with white sugar or passed off with syrup, so it looks very clear and translucent, generally light yellow or dark yellow.

In addition, pure honey is colorless, and the color of honey is caused by the pollen of different plants in honey. Therefore, dark honey is more nutritious than light-colored honey, but dark honey often contains a stronger odor, such as buckwheat honey; Light-colored honey generally smells fragrant, such as lychee honey and locust honey.

Two impurities identification: you can use the red-hot wire to insert into the honey, the bubbling is the real honey, the smoking is fake, if it is pure honey, after the wire is pulled out, it is very smooth and does not attach impurities. Pick up honey with chopsticks, which can be pulled into long filaments, keep flowing, and those that will automatically retract when the filaments are broken and are spherical are of the highest grade.

Mix honey and water in a ratio of 1 to 5 and leave it for a day, and it is best to have no sediment.

Three water identification: honey drops on white paper, pure honey into beads, will not seep, and water-mixed honey will gradually seep out, the faster the seepage, the more water.

4. Identification of heavy metals: take a tablespoon of honey and add it to a small half cup of very strong herbal green tea, if the honey has been contaminated by heavy metals, the tannins in the tea will react with the heavy metals in the honey to produce gray or brown and black salts. The darker the color, the greater the degree of heavy metal contamination.

5. Starch identification: put a small amount of honey into a cup, add an appropriate amount of water to boil, drop a few drops of iodine wine and shake well after cooling, if the solution turns blue or red or purple, it means that the honey is mixed with starchy substances.

6. Sugar identification: honey mixed with sugar has poor transparency, is not clear, turbid, and has poor floral flavor. Honey mixed with brown sugar is darker, and honey mixed with white sugar is lighter. You can rub it with two fingers to feel sticky, and if it is grainy, it will be sugary.

Seven taste identification: real honey is sweet and delicious, with a slight sour taste, the crystalline block is crispy when it enters the teeth, and it melts when it is contained, while the fake honey has a bitter and astringent taste, and the crystalline block chews like sugar, and the sound is crisp and loud.

Eight smell taste identification: real honey has a faint plant flavor and floral aroma, and fake honey smells pungent or fruit candy.

Nine crystallization identification: fake honey is not crystallized, but the white sugar added to some fake honey will also precipitate under certain conditions and form a precipitate at the bottom of the bottle. The crystallization of real honey and the precipitation of fake honey are easy to distinguish, and the crystals of honey are relatively soft, and they can be easily twisted on the fingers, and there is a delicate feeling.

The white sugar precipitation precipitated by fake honey is relatively dense, and when it is twisted on the finger, it has a gritty feeling.

Happy every day!!

All three are bee products, of which royal jelly is the food of the queen bee, honey is the food of the bees, and propolis is the health supplement of the bee kingdom. Their differences are mainly reflected in the following three aspects:

1.**Different. Royal jelly is an emulsion collected by young worker bees, which is the essence of bees; Honey is a sweet substance collected by bees from plant nectar or secretions, which is fully brewed and stored in the nest spleen, which is the essence of plant life; Propolis, on the other hand, is the resin of plants collected by bees and mixed with their own glandular secretions, which integrates animal secretions and plant secretions.

2.The effect on bees is different. Royal jelly is the only food for the queen bee for life, and only the queen bee has the privilege of enjoying it for life.

The larvae of worker bees and male peaks were only fed royal jelly for the first 3 days, and after 3 days, they could only be fed a mixture of pollen and honey. Propolis is the protector of the bee kingdom, propolis can be used as an adhesive to repair beehives, and can also be used as an antibacterial substance for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory bee colonies.

3.Ingredients and health benefits vary. Royal jelly is rich in nutrients and bioactive components, mainly protein, amino acids, vitamins, organic acids and unique royal jelly acid, acetylcholine, a variety of enzymes, insulin-like and "mysterious R substance", mainly used for human immune regulation and comprehensive conditioning, by balancing the body's functions to play a role in disease prevention and auxiliary health care, suitable for people with low immunity and in a sub-healthy state to take, so that blood sugar and blood lipids are maintained at a normal level, propolis also has a two-way regulatory effect on blood sugar, is high blood sugarIdeal for patients with hyperlipidemia.

Don't talk so much nonsense. Propolis is the best, but unfortunately most of it is gum. Honey is not much to say, royal jelly is still relatively good, ** is also suitable, there are generally no fakes, their main functions: nourishing the lungs, moistening the lungs, and can also fight cancer.

Royal jelly is better, and it is also affordable.

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 also 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.

Propolis is an effective substance used by bees to maintain the health of the whole colony, and a colony of 560,000 bees can only produce 100-150 grams of propolis a year, which is known as "purple**". The production period of propolis is mostly summer and autumn, and most of the gum source plants in China include birch, willow, pine, cypress and sumac, as well as peach, plum, apricot, chestnut, rubber, eucalyptus and sunflower. Propolis is an opaque solid with a smooth or rough surface, a sand grain fracture surface, and a cut surface similar to that of marble.

It is yellowish-brown, tan, grayish-brown, grayish-green, dark green, and rarely darker than black. It has a special aromatic flavor that is lovely. The taste is slightly bitter, slightly spicy, chewing sticky teeth, and can be softened by hand kneading.

When the temperature is lower than 15, it becomes hard, brittle and easy to crush; 36 soft, sticky and malleable; At a temperature of 60 to 70, it melts into a viscous fluid and separates the beeswax. The specific gravity varies with different plant species and is generally in between. Insoluble in water, slightly soluble in turpentine, partially soluble in ethanol, highly soluble in ether and chloroform.

Dissolved in 95% ethanol, it is transparent maroon and has a granular precipitate. Pure propolis should not contain other impurities. Modern research has proved that the rich and unique bioactive substances contained in propolis make it have a variety of functions such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-itching, anti-oxidant, enhance immunity, hypoglycemia, hypolipidemic, anti-tumor, etc., and have a wide range of medical and health care effects on the human body.

Royal jelly, also known as royal jelly, bee milk, royal jelly, is the secretion of the pharyngeal glands of young worker bees that breed larvae in honey bee hives, and is food for the larvae that will become queen bees. Royal jelly is high in protein and contains vitamins such as B vitamins and acetylcholine. Royal jelly should not be taken with boiling water or tea and should be stored at low temperatures.

Hope it works for you
