Judging the Quality of Honey

When we purchase honey, we are not sure whether it is pure or impure. There

are few simple tricks, with which we can clearly judge its quality.

Pure honey pours down in the shape of a serpent whereas the impure

honey falls flat on the plate. Apply a little honey on a stick and light it on

fire, if it starts burning consider it to be pure.

Pure honey is transparent. A dog will not lick it. Pure honey has a good

smell. It melts in heat and frosts in cold season.

Which regions produce the best honey? Honey found in Kashmir and Himachal

is of the best quality and is very beneficial. It gives instant relief in the case of

eye problems. The quality of honey found in these regions is extremely good

because it is obtained from the lotus flowers grown in the lakes of Kashmir.

This type of honey containing a lot of medicinal values is not found in any other

place.

Medicinal Effects of Pure Honey Acccording to Ayurveda

New honey removes phlegm and is a purgative. One or two year old honey

reduces fat and is good for digestion.

Honey gives strength and power to the intestines. Regular consumption of

honey stops the accumulation of toxic elements in the intestines and also kills

worms. It is equally beneficial for chronic diseases, chronic constipation,

dysentery and diarrhea.

Honey removes phlegm accumulated in the lungs. It gives relief to the patients

of asthma and cough. Honey is also beneficial in cases of tuberculosis. It keeps

the mind fresh and healthy. It is especially beneficial for those who do more

mental work. Honey increases the humors of the body. Consumption of honey is

good for strengthening the sperm, physical strength and gives good shape to

the body. Soak one almond twice a day, rub it nicely on a grinding stone in the

night and keep it in a bowl. Add one spoon of honey and drink it with cold milk

without adding any sugar, half an hour before going to bed. This is beneficial

for mental strength, masculinity and physical fitness. This medicine should be

taken regularly for two months during the winter season. It is extremely

beneficial.

Honey cures phlegm disorder. Take half a spoon of honey and half a spoon of

ginger juice to get rid of cough. Add onion juice and honey in equal quantity

and take this medicine to get rid of accumulated phlegm. Simply licking honey

is also good for curing mild cough. Honey also cures skin problems. Honey

cures skin diseases and makes the skin healthy. It also kills worms and stops

decay.

Honey improves the eyesight. If lotus honey of Kashmir is available, it should

be applied in the eyes like kajal (eye liner). This cures all problems related to

the eyes and increases the eyesight.

Drink one glass of cold milk added with a few drops of honey before going to

bed. Do not add sugar or sugar candy. This reduces physical weakness. This

should be taken regularly for two months. It is necessary to brush the teeth

after drinking this milk.

Consume honey with fruits like jelly. It is beneficial for students, doctors,

lawyers, intellectual people, elderly persons, pregnant women and children.

Take one glass of clean water with two spoons of honey in the morning before

passing bowels. This gradually reduces the fat accumulated in the body. This

should be taken regularly for two months. This is beneficial for reducing fat and

increases the shine of the body.

Honey has medicinal values; it takes the qualities of the substance which is

added to it. This is the special quality of honey. This is the main reason for



calling it 'Yogvahi' (medium for mixing medicines).

What should be the quantity when consuming honey?

In the beginning honey should be consumed only in small quantities. Give four

to five drops to an infant, half a spoon to young children and one spoon to old

people. Increase this quantity gradually and then it can be taken four times a

day. Honey can be taken with chapattis, fruits, fruit juice, or almonds. Consume

it for two months regularly and discontinue for a month. One can start taking

honey after a gap of one month. One or two spoons of honey should be taken

everyday.

Useful Tips

Do not take honey with hot food or in the summer season because it is not

suitable in hot weather and hot conditions.

Honey creates negative effects when taken in hot conditions.

Honey causes adverse effects when consumed with hot fluids.

Honey turns into poison when it is heated. Honey is equal to poison when it is

taken with hot conditions, hot weather or hot food. According to Ayurveda one

should not take honey with hot milk, hot water and in hot weather.

There is no benefit if honey and ghee are mixed with equal quantities and taken

(they counter each other). In case of need, mix one part of ghee with three or

four parts of honey.

Consuming honey in excess quantity is not good for health. It is also advised

not to take honey with sugar candy, jaggery, jackfruit, fish, egg, meat, etc. Do

not consume honey continuously for several months (pause for one month in

between). This can cause a disease called 'Amajirg'.
