Raw honey is the purest form of honey, to put it in simple words, raw honey is the concentrated nectar of flowers that comes straight from the extractor. Pure raw honey contains ingredients that are similar to those found in fruits and become alkaline in the intestine which in turn helps digestion. This is a primary reason why raw honey is the major ingredient in all digestive medicines because it
does not ferment in the stomach and it can be used to counteract acid indigestion. When pure raw honey is mixed with ginger or lemon juices it helps in relieving nausea also. Indian raw honey is characterized by fine textured crystals. Raw honey looks milkier and contains particles and flecks made of bee pollen, honeycomb bits and propolis. Indian raw honey is relatively low in moisture content and has a high antioxidant level. It will usually granulate and crystallize to a margarine-like consistency over time. People prefer to spread it on bread and waffles, dissolve it in hot coffee or tea, or use it for cooking and baking.
