De ce mierea nu este bună pentru toată lumea. Ce beneficii are și cine trebuie să o evite • Newsweek România

Honey has been used for centuries as food and remedy, but its effects vary. While it can soothe coughs and has antimicrobial properties, it is not a cure. Honey contains sugars and should not be seen as a healthier alternative to regular sugar. The World Health Organization advises limiting sugar intake, including honey. Infants under one year should avoid honey due to botulism risk, and diabetics must monitor their intake as it can raise blood sugar levels. Allergic reactions are possible, and excessive consumption can lead to dental issues and weight gain. Honey can be part of a balanced diet but should be consumed in moderation.
