Why a spoonful of honey daily is a must have for women

Staying fit and healthy amidst the fast paced life is no less than a challenge, especially for women as they juggle many hats to strike the right balance between work, family and health. This raises an important question: Are women really healthy and is there anything that can ensure a fit body and mind?

No wonder, eating healthy can change a lot of things in life and even reduce stress and anxiety.

Today, we have an ancient secret, which has been used since ages to boost immunity, vitality and improve the overall health of women.

What is the age-old secret?
Women go through hormonal changes, pain, anxiety, depression and weakness during the dreadful menstrual cycle, but do you know why women in earlier times were so strong? Well, ‘Honey’ is that ancient secret that helped stay fit, calm and healthy. Here’s how this Liquid Gold is a blessing for women and must be included in the daily diet.

Honey: The liquid gold
Loaded with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, Honey is also known as a Liquid gold, this is because of its health enriching nutrients that help in boosting immunity. It works as a natural laxative, boosts metabolism, improves memory, helps in combating seasonal flu, allergies, fever, cold, sore throat and has anti- carcinogenic properties, which prevent several types of cancer. Lastly, due to its antibiotic properties and anti-inflammatory properties, it helps in better and faster healing of the body. Here are some reasons why women need to consume this ‘Liquid gold’.

1. Heals pain
Women suffer several symptoms before or during their menstrual cycle such as body ache, back ache or headache. These are some of the common things that people go through during this phase. Adding 1 tablespoon of honey in lukewarm water or with a small portion of ginger or ginger tea can help in healing the pain and reduce inflammation in the body.

2. Improves hormonal imbalance
Women often go through hormonal imbalance, which is a result of disbalance in testosterone levels, which in the long run affects reproductive health. Consuming honey on a daily basis helps in balancing the testosterone levels, which improves reproductive health, reduces mood swings and improves hormonal balance.

​3. Reduces skin aging
Apart from healing the pain or boosting immunity, both consumption as well as application of honey can help in reducing the emerging signs of aging like fine line or wrinkles. Adding honey to morning drinks or tea is the best way to consume it and for application just mix honey with curd, gram flour and apply to get flawless skin and a glass skin glow.
