6. It is easy to poison honey water with a metal cup.

Don't brew honey water in a metal cup, because honey is acidic, and it is prone to oxidation reaction when it comes into contact with metals, and free metal elements such as iron, aluminum and zinc are precipitated, which will lead to the color of honey turning black. Moreover, its effective components are destroyed, which may cause abdominal pain, vomiting and other poisoning symptoms after eating.

A small amount of toxin can poison babies. In severe cases, constipation lasts for 1 to 3 weeks, and then flaccid paralysis, crying weakness, inability to suck milk and dyspnea occur. Adults are not poisoned because they have strong resistance and can inhibit the reproduction of Botox.
