Honey is known for its immortality in nature. Archaeologists have found honey in the tombs of the Pharaohs, preserved and safe for consumption even after thousands of years.
This is thanks to its unique properties:
the low water content, high sugar concentration and natural acidity create an environment that prevents bacterial growth.
In addition, bees add enzymes that produce hydrogen peroxide, enhancing the antimicrobial properties of honey. It is no coincidence that honey has been used as a natural preservative and as a medicine since ancient times!
