What Happens If You Drink Honey Water on an Empty Stomach?
How to Prepare Your Daily Honey Water
The key to maximizing the benefits is simple preparation:
- Ingredients: 1 glass of warm (not hot) water and 1 tablespoon of raw or organic honey.
- Instructions: Mix the honey into the warm water until dissolved. The water temperature is critical; boiling water destroys the beneficial enzymes in the honey.
- Optimal Timing: Drink slowly on an empty stomach (first thing after waking up) for the best results.
A Final Word on Balance: Honey is a source of natural sugar. While beneficial in moderation, individuals with diabetes should always consult a doctor before making it a regular part of their diet.
