JSixpack Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 As I hear honey being recommended as a sweetener here now and then, thought I'd post results of a new study:Consumption of Honey, Sucrose, and High-Fructose Corn Syrup Produces Similar Metabolic Effects in Glucose-Tolerant and -Intolerant Individuals Body weight and serum glucose, insulin, inflammatory markers, and total and LDL-cholesterol concentrations were significantly higher in the IGT group than in the GT group at baseline. Glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR, and the OGTT iAUC for glucose or insulin did not differ by treatment, but all responses were significantly higher in the IGT group compared with the GT group.

jak2002003 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Real honey is very hard to get theses days.. nearly all the honey, squeezy bottle or posh looking glass jar / bottle.. has been diluted with sugar syrup. Its hard to get pure honey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's one brand here in Thailand from Australia i think. Pasteurized honey has been stripped of anything good in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
