Honey. What's /fit/s opinion on it?Good for you? Or just pointless sweetning sugar?What benefits/downfalls does it have?
pointless fructose.but i eat it with cottage cheese so the portion rounds up to 100 calories.
good: the natural stuff right from the hive has a lot of beneficial antioxidants and mineralsbad: 1. people go overboard thinking it's healthy and eat too much of it2. it's mostly sugar3. thus spikes insulin
It's nice because it provides a different consistency than sugar. But otherwise HEALTH WISE there is no benefit.
My housemates take "natural honey" for allergy purposes. I'm not sure why, but it was recommended by a doctor, so whatever works I guess.
>>465361Same principle as eating juniper (I think) berries, I guess. Get it in your system, and you don't suffer.
agave nectar > honey
>>465120yes but if you dont go overboard it is much better than sugar.
Agave Nectar > Honey
>>465361natural honey has all the flowers in your area so your immune system will be used to it
>>465631if you don't go overboard sugar also isn't bad
>>465535this. but basically, it tastes sweet but has a lower gi score than table sugar
Almost the same thing as HFCS.
>>465112Shit that hasn't been heated up is great, although I don't eat it.. If I want my shit sweet I'll put stevia on it
