From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, honey has the functions of strengthening the spleen and regulating the stomach, moistening the intestines to relieve constipation, relieving dry mouth, dry skin and dry stool, and calming the nerves. Honey can nourish yin and moisten dryness, which is suitable for patients with yin deficiency and excessive fire. However, people with cold and wet constitution, or people who often have edema, eating honey will aggravate the moisture, which is not worth the candle. Therefore, you should consider your physique before eating honey.
You should drink boiled water instead of honey water in the morning.
Honey water contains corresponding sugar, not in the form of pure water. After drinking, fructose in honey must be converted into glucose by human metabolism before it can be absorbed and utilized by human body, thus losing the function of cleaning the body with the first glass of water in the morning. Therefore, after drinking boiled water in the morning, the body is cleaner, and eating honey is more conducive to exerting the efficacy.

Honey is good, but you can't drink too much! Honey can be ingested at most 100ml per day, but you can't eat it endlessly because you think honey is particularly healthy. Because glucose and fructose in honey are monosaccharides, they can be directly absorbed into the blood by the human body. Drink two cups of honey water every day, one cup with a spoonful of honey is enough, and a healthy diet depends on balance.
