The BitterSweet Truth

Did you know that

Honey is one of the most adulterated food products in the world?

Yes! Honey is one of the most adulterated products on our planet. With the widespread use of high fructose corn syrup and additives, over 70% of honey available in India is either counterfeit or mislabeled. Adulterated honey not only deceives consumers but also poses risks to health due to the presence of additives, antibiotics, and heavy metals.

Humble Bee is committed to providing you with pure and authentic honey, free from any additives, fillers, or artificial substances. That's why each jar of Humble Bee Honey comes with a unique QR code, allowing you to trace the journey of your honey, from the hive to your table. 

Honey loses all its goodness when heated above 40°C?

During most processing/ pasteurization processes, raw honey is heated above the threshold temperature, thereby compromising beneficial enzymes and thus, health benefits. Consuming processed (=pasteurized) honey does no good to your body!

Exposing honey to temperatures above 40°C diminishes its natural goodness, leaving you with a diluted experience. Avoid mixing your honey with hot teas and beverages. Instead, drizzle raw honey onto your favorite foods, lukewarm drinks, savoring the essence and goodness that nature intended.

Unlike processed honey, raw honey retains its natural goodness and nutritional properties.
Choose raw honey anyday!

If bees disappear, humankind would have only four years of life left?

Yes! While the statement may be a simplification of a complex issue, it underscores the critical role of bees in our food supply and ecosystem.

Bees are responsible for pollinating a wide variety of crops, including fruits, vegetables, and nuts. They contribute to the pollination of around one-third of the global food supply.

A significant decline in bee populations would disrupt this pollination process and affect the production of numerous crops. This, in turn, would lead to reduced harvests, lower crop yields, and increased food scarcity. When crops suffer due to poor pollination, food prices rise. In addition, farmers may resort to using synthetic fertilizers and other methods to compensate for the lack of natural pollinators, which can have environmental and economic repercussions. Furthermore, the decline in biodiversity and ecological balance would also affect other aspects of the environment.
