Honey is said to be nature's golden medicine!

While you usually hear that you should not eat honey after 19:00, European folk healers recommend drinking warm milk with a teaspoon of honey to ensure a good night's sleep.

3 of the reasons why you should eat honey every night before bed are:

# 1 - You will sleep much better

Raw organic honey works wonders and is actually recommended to be consumed at bedtime.

It keeps your liver "full" and makes sure it produces the right amount of glycogen for the night.

Honey also helps the brain by raising its levels of insulin which releases tryptophan into the brain. Tryptophan is converted to serotonin, which is then formed into melatonin. Many people call melatonin a "wellness hormone" because it boosts immunity and rebuilds tissue during rest. Melatonin not only helps you during sleep, but ensures that you wake up well rested.

# 2 - You will lose a few pounds

You will lose a few pounds The Honey Diet was founded by Mike Mcinnes (a nutrition expert and former Boot Chemist) when he realized that athletes who ate fructose-rich foods (such as honey) burned ten times more fat than an average person.

honey acts as a fuel for your liver and enables it to produce more glucose.

When glucose is produced, it warns the brain that sugar levels are high and forces it to release fat-burning hormones. In order to really see a change in weight, you need to follow the Honey Diet and replace sugar with honey throughout the day.

In addition, you should drink warm water with three tablespoons of honey before bed (to ensure that fat burning hormones persist throughout the night).

# 3 - You will feel better about yourself

Honey is known to soothe a sore throat while acting as a cough medicine. Two teaspoons of honey will soothe even the most severe sore throats, but is not recommended for children under 1 year old.

In New Zealand and Australia, Manuka honey is used to heal wounds. This form of honey has been known to stop infection and has properties similar to hydrogen peroxide.

Among other things, honey offers the following benefits:

Helps with allergies

Boosts your immune system

While honey tastes great, be careful not to overdo it. Stick to a spoon because it has a lot of sugar, which can be unhealthy if consumed in large quantities. Honey may not be recommended for diabetics, so check with your doctor first.
