Just as flowers differ in terms of size, color, shape and smell, their nectar is also diverse.
In fact, the color and taste of different types of honey has a range as wide as the fragrance and smell of flowers. With this unique natural feature, honey is different from other foods.
Therefore, in this article, we will tell you the types of honey and their properties.
Saffron is one of the colorful spices of Iranian cooking and a plant rich in minerals. Needless to mention that, Iran Is ranked number 1 in Saffron production.
In saffron honey, unlike other honeys, saffron is added directly to honey after testing and purification. The aroma of saffron in saffron honey can be easily felt and you can taste the flavor of saffron in honey.
The combination of properties of saffron and honey can be called “energizing potion”. Saffron and honey each have special properties on their own, but the use of these two together is much more beneficial.
Today, saffron enjoys special attention both in traditional medicine and in medical science.
Some Benefits of Saffron Honey:
Cedar is a multi-purpose tree of which there are about 50 species in the tropical regions of Asia, Africa, America and temperate regions. It is interesting to know that the plateau of Iran has 5 different species of this tree.
Sidr or Cedar honey is the honey that bees feed on the flowers of this tree and includes the main properties of Sidr. This honey has many nutrients, vitamins and minerals and has antimicrobial and antibacterial properties. You can use Sidr honey to strengthen the immune system and improve the health level of the body along with benefiting from its other properties.
Astragalus is one of the native plants of Iran, of which there are more than 800 species in different regions of the country.
Astragalus is a dry plant that needs little water and is abundantly found in mountain pastures. This plant has many therapeutic and medicinal properties.
The bees that feed on these flowers produce Astragalus honey, which has the main properties of this plant. One of the most important properties of Astragalus honey, which is important for health, is its anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic content. There are some other benefits to mention:
Coriander is a plant that almost everyone has seen at least once, because it is sold as a type of vegetable either dried or fresh in shops. This plant is originally native to Europe, but it is also planted in different parts of Iran.
Coriander honey is named because the bee has fed more than 50-60% of its nectar. It means that most of the nectar used is from the coriander plant, but also pay attention to the fact that it is never possible for 100% of the nectar used by bees to be from one plant.
Black seed or (Nigella Sativa), is an annual plant that has been grown spontaneously since the past, but because of its seeds and flowers, its cultivation has become common in some places.
The original birthplace of this plant was the Mediterranean Sea area, but with the expansion of medical uses of black seed, its cultivation was also expanded in Western Asia, as well as in Southern Europe and Southern Balkan countries.
In Iran, this plant has been growing in the form of a car in areas such as Isfahan, Azarbaijan and Arak.
Natural honey is the nectar of flowers that the bee has processed and concentrated and stored in the hive after feeding on various plants.
If the bees have fed on sugar or fruit juices instead of the nectar of flowers and plants, the product cannot be called natural honey.
Bees’ nest or beeswax is made up of hexagonal cells by bees that use it as a place to live, store honey, pollen, royal jelly and larvae.
At first, the wax is colorless and white, but over time, due to the fact that honey wax cells or larvae are stored in it, its color changes and becomes dark. Note that the color of beeswax is not based on its quality.
Wax is solid at normal temperature, but changes its state and becomes soft at 65 degrees Celsius. This hexagonal nest also has many uses for human health.
Multi-plant honey is one of the honeys produced using several different types of nectar. Therefore, it can be expected that the honey of several plants alone has different types.
But in general, multi-plant honey has many properties and does not have a specific and uniform taste and appearance. Because as mentioned, the characteristics of honey from several plants can vary according to the type of its sources.
The benefits of this type of honey is varied based on the type of plants which are used in the honey composition.
