Honey has been associated as having positive health benefits and being used as a natural remedy for centuries. Great philosophers, such as Aristotle referred to it as a great remedy for wounds. However, the increasingly vast number of products and variations available to the general population also means that the wrong type of honey is often being used to cure these common problems.
The type of honey, aroma, consistency, flavour and colour can vary considerably depending on the nectar source. With that in mind its properties and health benefits will also vary considerably according to the source.
