The water test
Another simple method to check the purity of honey is the water test.
To put it into practice, fill a glass with water, then pour in a spoonful of honey. If it melts, the honey is not pure.
Artificial honey dissolves easily in water and spreads throughout the glass. Pure honey, on the other hand, will sink to the bottom of the glass and remain intact.
The honey must be absolutely pure and organic . Fake honey may also contain substances such as dextrose, glucose, molasses, sugar, corn syrup, flour or starch, among others.
Pure honey contains approximately 16 minerals, 21 vitamins, 18 amino acids and various phytonutrients with antioxidant and healing properties.
