Honey is a very healthy item, but with its consumption you should not overdo it

World experts in the field of healthy food do not recommend that young people consume more than two to three small spoons of this sweet nectar per day.

For people who suffer from certain diseases, no more than one spoon per day is recommended.

Obese people and those who suffer from diabetes, arteriosclerosis or hypertension should be careful in consuming this article, Telegraph reports.

In addition, nutritionists warn that allergy to honey is very common and that it can still cause allergies, regardless of age.

Another thing that most people do when they consume honey can be very wrong. In fact, most add honey to boiling water. Why is this not the right thing?

If honey is added to boiled water, it loses its beneficial properties and produces poison. If you prepare tea, don't put it in boiling water, but when it's cold and when it's a little warm. The water temperature does not exceed 40 degrees Celsius.
