Tales from Nature
Honey is produced by bees using nectar from flowers or plant secretions for some types. Once collected, the nectar is dehydrated by bees, who add enzymes to it and only then release it into combs.
Honey must be extracted cold to preserve its properties because if it reaches temperatures around 45 degrees it risks losing its properties and deteriorating.
Honey is particularly good for the care of dry, rough or dehydrated skin on the body such as elbows, hands and heels. This is due to its hygroscopic properties, that is, its ability to absorb and retain water. In addition, due to its antibacterial functions, honey is one of the most effective and common remedies for chapped lips, even if there are small cuts on the lips: it will help heal by performing a healing action.
Honey also has remarkable antioxidant properties thanks to vitamin E, which greatly slows down the natural aging of the skin.
