Royal jelly and honey are both bee products, which have good health care and medical effects, but these two things are completely different. Some people don't know much about bee products, and sometimes they confuse royal jelly with honey. Today, let's talk about the difference between honey and royal jelly.
Let's talk about their looks first. The color of honey varies with different varieties, including water-white acacia honey and amber jujube honey, but most of them are amber or light amber honey, and fresh honey is liquid and sticky. The color of royal jelly is mostly milky paste, sometimes slightly yellow, but mostly milky white. Royal jelly needs to be frozen, so the royal jelly we usually see is frozen like ice.
Royal jelly and honey, which we use most, are eaten. Although both can be used externally, eating is definitely the choice of most people. Then talk about the taste of royal jelly and honey. Let's talk about honey first It tastes sweet and delicious, with the fragrance of honey plants, which is very attractive. Honey is often used as a metaphor for some delicious food in life. Royal jelly is quite different. It tastes sour and astringent, and has a very spicy feeling. It's really hard to believe that this is the exclusive food of the queen bee above thousands of bees in the bee colony.
Besides, the preservation of royal jelly and honey, honey is very easy to preserve as long as it is fermented and mature, and it is generally no problem to put it in a few years after sealing; Royal jelly may deteriorate in 3 days at room temperature, so royal jelly generally needs to be frozen or refrigerated, while honey can be preserved at room temperature.
