Honey Is A Pure Natural and Wholesome Food
There are no added ingredients. Honey is a fat free trans fat free and cholesterol free food. It is also an excellent source of energy.
Composed primarily of fructose, glucose and water, honey also contains small amounts of a wide array of vitamins and minerals, including niacin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium and zinc.
The recent interests is in the antioxidant content of honey. Honey contains a variety of flavonoids and phenolic acids which act as antioxidants, scavenging and eliminating free radicals.
Generally, darker honeys, such as buckwheat, have higher antioxidant content than lighter honeys.
Natural Source of Energy
Exercising on a regular basis is one of the most important activities you can do for yourself. Honey has been a key ingredient in the training routines of athletes.
Whether you are running, swimming, wrestling, biking, or just taking a brisk walk around the block, honey provides a natural energy boost.
The human body needs carbohydrates before and during exercise. Carbohydrates eaten before and during exercise help to maintain blood glucose levels and prevent premature fatigue.
Honey is a natural source of readily available carbohydrates, with nearly equal amounts of both fructose and glucose.
100% Certified Organic Honey
For honey to be “certified organic” the first step is to ensure the beehives can be declared fit for organic production. Meaning the bees must be healthy, require no medications and all 
hive components must be used only for organic production.
The area in which the bees forage for the nectar has also to be certified organic. There can be no pesticide applications on any of the foliage. Since bees can fly up to 2-3 miles from a hive, this requires large tracts of land to be free from any chemical applications.
At present, Dutch Gold Honey is sourcing organic honey from Brazil, primarily due to the healthy condition of the honey bees in the region and the large un-populated areas of land that can be set aside for organic production
Soother for Coughs
Honey is well known to be a natural soother for throats and coughs. A new study by a Penn 
State College of Medicine research team found that honey may offer parents an effective and safe alternative to over-the-counter cough medicine.
The study also found that a small dose of buckwheat honey given before bedtime provided better relief of nighttime cough and sleep difficulty in children.
As with any raw food honey should not be fed to infants under one year of age. Honey is a safe and wholesome food for older children and adults.
Beauty & Skin Care
Honey has been used in beauty and skin treatment for thousands of years. Cleopatra was well aware of the unique abilities of honey to moisturize her skin and keep her hair healthy and shiny.
Even today’s celebrity facialist, Kate Somerville, recommends honey to treat chapped lips. Why does honey work?
First of all, honey is a humectants which means it attracts and retains moisture. It also has natural antimicrobial properties as well as it acts as an anti-irritant.
