Honey is nectar collected by bees from flowers of flowering plants and brewed in hives. Bees take nectar or secretions with water content of about 75% from plant flowers and store them in the second stomach. Under the action of various transformations in the body, after 15 days, when various vitamins, minerals and amino acids are enriched to a certain value, the polysaccharide in nectar is transformed into monosaccharide glucose and fructose that can be directly absorbed by the human body, and the water content is less than 23%, which is stored in the nest and sealed with beeswax.
