GREAT TASTE AWARDS 2011 - GOLD02. FOOD DRINK EXPO 2008- GOLD03. GREAT TASTE AWARDS 2006 - GOLD Greek Honey “Nature’s pharmacy”, “liquid gold”, “god’s gift”… from ancient time up until now, honey has been a natural, healthy food of great nutritional value.It is made by bees using vegetable or animal secretions or nectar from flowers. It contains among others, 16% water, proteins and aminoacids, minerals in small portions (potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron etc), enzymes, protein complexes, vitamins (Β2, Β6, C, D, E, pantothenic acid, folic acid etc), natural fragrance substances.It also contains trace minerals, which are very important for the metabolism and the nutrition. Trace minerals can be found at our bones and cells, they participate in a variety of enzyme systems and they regulate stomach acidity.Honey is well known for its antiseptic properties, it acts as a stimulant, it increases the heart rate, helps with stomachulcer problems and in general it contributes to the well being of the human body. Honey is also an excellent remedy to help those suffering from anaemia due to its iron content. Honey can also help absorb alcohol, therefore helping your body metabolize it quicker in cases of alcohol intoxication. It also contains high portions of choline, a nutrient which helps those suffering from constipation.Lastly, we shouldn’t forget to mention its antimicrobial use, as honey seems to prevent the growth of bacteria and pathogens, a property that can be of use for wound cleansing and healing. Greek honey vs others Greek honey is considered to be one of the best in the world. The reason for this lies in the biodiversity (high degree of variation of plants) and the soil and climate conditions of Greece, as well as Greek beekeepers’ high level of professionalism. Honey technology is not particularly advanced in Greece, that’s why unlike Greek honey that has the minimum elaboration and standardization, imported honey is a highly standardized product of advanced elaboration (pollen extract, overheat, blended and heated to extremes to prevent crystallization, colour change etc).Imported honey is very watery, since it has high humidity, which makes it vulnerable to contamination.The quality of Greek honey and the compliance with the Greek and the European legislation are ensured thanks to the frequent inspections of the EFET (Hellenic Food Authority) and other certified agencies. Did you know? Honey was the first sweetener ever used by humans.The father of medicine, Hippocrates (462-352 BC), who lived, taught and got international recognition for his work, suggested honey to patients as well as healthy people, having realized its great beneficial properties.‘’If something eliminated bees from the planet, mankind would perish within 4 years". A quotation attributed to Albert Einstein meaning without bees there are no plants, without plants no animals and thus without animals mankind has little chance of survival.In Ancient Greece and Byzantium, people used to marinate the meat with honey and vinegar to make it tasty and tender.
