ABOUT K&N HONEY
K&N Raw + Pure Hitchin honey is cold extracted and lightly filtered to preserve the healthy natural proteins and enzymes, that make honey the original superfood. Our Herts hedgerow honey has a beautiful floral perfume and delicate flavour, straight from our hives near Baldock and Hitchin, just as the bees made it!
Our raw and pure Hitchin honey is unheated, unpasteurised and unprocessed. This is one of the most important characteristics and health benefits of our final honey product, as it preserves all the enzymes, natural vitamins, phytonutrients and other nutritional elements. True raw honey is quite different from processed commercial honey for these reasons.
The main health benefits of honey come from the unique blend of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, phytonutrients and other health components that it possesses. The two key beneficial components of truly raw honey are bee pollen and propolis.
Bee pollen is a super nutritious compound, containing all the nutrients required by the human body. It is a source of proteins, vitamins, minerals, beneficial fatty acids, carotenoids and bioflavonoids which are helpful to cardiovascular health.
The health benefits of propolis are numerous. This, along with some of its other characteristics, makes raw and pure honey highly sought after. Some benefits of raw honey include supporting immune system health, healthy blood sugar levels already within the normal range, healthy cholesterol levels already within the normal range and more. Raw honey does not ferment in the stomach and can actually be used in supporting digestive system health. Unlike most sugars, raw honey is not known to aggravate a sensitive digestive tract.
In addition to all of this, raw honey is alkaline forming, unlike processed honey which is acid forming. For better natural health, our daily food supply should be higher in alkaline forming foods, rather than acid forming foods.
And finally, another benefit is, it tastes great! 🙂
