I'm also drinking honey water and eating honey, so I'll share some common sense about honey with you. Welcome friends with honey health care experience to talk about usage and exchange experiences!
First, eating honey regularly can ensure health and longevity.
Honey is made by worker bees collecting flowers and honey in their nests. There are three kinds of honey in spring, summer and winter, and the quality of honey in winter is the best. Wild honey, such as trees and caves, is also called wild honey, also called stone honey or rock honey, which has the best quality, but the output is limited, so most of the honey seen in the market is collected by artificial beekeeping. The benefits of honey to human health have long been recognized. Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica lists honey as the top grade beneficial to people. The ancient Greeks believed that honey was a "godsend", while the Vedas in India said that honey could prolong life. Tao Hongjing, a famous doctor in the Liang Dynasty in China, said: "Taoist pills are mostly honey, and those who cultivate immortals only eat honey, that is, they can live forever." Although this statement is somewhat exaggerated, it fully illustrates the role of honey in nutrition and medical care.
Nutritional analysis shows that honey contains about 35% glucose and 40% fructose, both of which can be directly absorbed and utilized by human body without digestion. Honey also contains a variety of inorganic salts with concentrations similar to human serum, and also contains a certain amount of vitamins B 1, B2, B6, iron, calcium, copper, manganese, phosphorus and potassium. Honey contains amylase, lipase, invertase and so on, which is the most enzyme in food. Enzymes are promoters that help human digestion, absorption and a series of substance metabolism and chemical changes. Honey tastes fragrant and delicious. From the perspective of nutrition and health care value, honey is not only a good product for nourishing and prolonging life, but also a good medicine for treating diseases.
Honey, as a medicine, has a history of thousands of years in China, and its curative effect is very good. Li Shizhen, a medical scientist in the Ming Dynasty, pointed out: "Honey has five functions as medicine: clearing heat; Buzhong also; Wet and dry; Detoxification also; The pain has also eased. Born cold, it can clear away heat. Maturity is warm, so it can be made up. Sweet and peaceful, so you can detoxify. Soft and moist, so it can moisten dryness. It can slow down the urgency, so it can stop the pain of myocardial trauma and cause the middle, so it can reconcile various drugs and work together with licorice. "
Clinically, honey can not only treat gastritis, but also add some drugs to honey to treat ulcers.

Especially when the climate is dry in winter, eating more honey can prevent chapped skin. Many advanced cosmetics are extracted from honey, which shows that honey has a good protective effect on the skin. If it can be taken orally and externally for a long time, it will help to beautify and prolong life.
Second, honey diet
Honey is a natural nutrient, which contains good sugar, vitamins and minerals, and can burn human energy. As long as you add a little honey to three meals a day, you can avoid the accumulation of fat in the human body.
Honey has excellent sterilization effect and detoxification effect, which helps to discharge the waste accumulated in the body, improve the metabolic function of the whole body, and make the excess fat accumulated in the body burn as energy because it cannot be consumed well. If the sugar in honey can be transported from the stomach to the blood, it will become energy and quickly eliminate fatigue. With the increase of blood sugar level, the feeling of fasting disappears.

Third, honey cures colds.
What we commonly call "cold" or "cold" refers to the infection of nose, pharynx and larynx (upper respiratory tract infection), which is the most common respiratory infectious disease and can be divided into two categories: viral and bacterial due to different pathogens. Viruses account for more than 90% of the incidence of upper respiratory diseases, and are generally spread through droplets containing viruses or contaminated instruments; Bacterial infection can be directly infected or secondary to viral infection, and hemolytic streptococcus is the most common. The clinical manifestations are fever, aversion to cold, headache, stuffy nose, runny nose, cough, sore throat and hoarseness.

Fourthly, honey and milk can relieve and eliminate dysmenorrhea.
Drinking a cup of hot milk with a spoonful of honey before going to bed every night can relieve or even eliminate the pain of dysmenorrhea. Because milk contains more potassium, honey is rich in magnesium. Studies have shown that potassium plays an important role in the conduction of nerve impulses and the coagulation of blood. It can relieve mood, inhibit pain, prevent infection and reduce menstrual blood loss. Magnesium has a sedative effect on the central nervous system of the brain, which can regulate psychology, eliminate tension and reduce stress.

Another way to deal with dysmenorrhea is to take vitamins. B vitamins, especially B6, have a significant effect on premenstrual tension, which can stabilize mood, help sleep, make people energetic and relieve abdominal pain. Bananas contain more B vitamins. JM with dysmenorrhea might as well eat more and try to see if it has any effect.
