Honey
Bee’s honey is an all-natural sweetener with lots of health benefits. For starters, unlike most other sweeteners, honey has nutrients. It has trace amounts of essential vitamins and minerals, but it really stands out for its impressive antioxidant levels.
Organic acids and phenolic compounds in honey act like antioxidants in our bloodstream and help control oxidative stress caused by free radicals.
Antioxidants can also reduce health risks associated with heart disease, inflammation, and even some types of cancer. Honey can even help you lower blood pressure, so add it to your grocery list. The darker, the better.
