Healthy Digestion

Honey comes with lactobacilli and Bifidobacterium bacteria’s which makes it a good laxative and probiotic in nature to ease out any pain in stomach and digestion issues like GERD, gas, constipation easily. It cleans our digestive system and helps in curing any infections we have. It has been found that using honey as an alternative to normal sugar not only tastes good but also reduces the toxic effects of mycotoxins released by fungi in our guts. So it is advised to eat honey always with all normal food items like veggies cooked using gas grills, fish, tofu etc. for better digestion. You can eat it after eating your food also.
