There are about 22 calories
in honey per teaspoon.
Get this...
If you're trying to lose weight it's a far better sweetener than plain old table sugar.
In fact, the effects can be dramatically different!
Let me explain o chubby one...
Natural
honey and table sugar both contain glucose and fructose, but while
table sugar reeks havoc on the human body, honey does not.
It
all comes down to science. The honey molecules are found in
superior combos. Natural combos. Combinations that the
human body loves.
Studies actually prove that natural honey is processed far better by the body at the cellular level.
Because
of this... while table sugar gets stored as pure lard on your belly...
honey calories can actually have a slimming effect on the body.
Yes, SLIMMING!
Honey is also jam packed with nutrients and
antioxidants. These properties act as a significant metabolic
booster and a body detoxifier.
Basically, consuming honey can actually cause your body to process the food you eat better.
This,
of course, does not mean you should go out and stuff yourself, but I
don't hesitate to recommend you switch out your plain old sugar with
natural honey.
