We all know that drinking lots of water is healthy. The life-sustaining processes of the human body can only take place if cells have a sufficient amount of water. We have also all heard that consuming honey is also very beneficial because it contains many of the essential minerals and nutrients: iron, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium and vitamins. Get used to drinking water mixed with Brolių Medus honey in the morning on an empty stomach and in the evening — it’ll lead to a healthier and happier you.
It really will! A ton of vitamins never hurt anyone before! Drinking water mixed with honey has been proved to protect against various diseases and to strengthen the immune system. And when you delve deeper into the topic, you start asking yourself the question ‘Why haven’t I been drinking water with Brolių Medus honey all along?’
So what makes drinking water with honey so special and how does our body benefit? There are countless answers, but we’ll try to give you a brief summary of what water mixed with honey can do for you. Here are just a few of the benefits:
Strengthens the immune system.
Honey has many properties that strengthen and even pamper the human body. Just one condition: get yourself some high-quality organic honey. The product range offered by Brolių Medus is especially generous. Choose from linden (summer flower), buckwheat, honeydew (forest, autumn flower) and spring (fresh) honey. Our honey is raw because it hasn’t been heated or otherwise processed. Honey contains enzymes, vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients that can help overcome many diseases. Where can you get some? It’s no secret, find yourself some raw, high-quality and delicious honey here.
Brightens skin.
The first and most straightforward step towards healthy skin, easily achievable by anyone, is drinking water. We know that honey is a natural antioxidant that helps cleanse the body and acts in an antibacterial capacity, giving the skin a healthy glow and brightness, visually rejuvenating it. Mixing these two priceless products – water and Brolių Medus honey – can make you look observably younger and more beautiful.
Contributes to weight loss.
Wondering how that’s even possible? We promise that if you keep that spoon of honey on hand, you won’t need to run any marathons! Yes, honey is full of sugar, but this sugar is natural (of course, consume it in moderation). If sugar is replaced with high-quality honey, we can reduce our dependence on other sweets: cakes, cookies, donuts, soft drinks, etc. You know that drinking water improves metabolism. So if you replace sweet drinks with water and honey, you’ll be saying goodbye to 64% of the calories. Now doesn’t that sound more slender?
Cleanses the body of toxins.
Want to detox? Here’s an easy and, most importantly, delicious way to feel ‘cleaner’. Water dissolves and removes toxins and the waste products produced by the life-sustaining processes occurring in the body. Honey has been proven to effectively contribute to cleansing the body and gut as well as helping prevent diseases of the liver. So, this drink makes for a great detox, and if you also throw in a slice of lemon or two, some cinnamon and turmeric, that effect will be even greater.
Regulates blood sugar levels.
Honey will help you avoid spikes in blood sugar levels, which result in the strong urge to devour something very sweet, disrupting our equilibrium. Of course, if that something sweet is a Brolių Medus honey treat with salted peanuts or assorted nuts in honey – you’ve got nothing to worry about! But you don’t always have them on hand (if you haven’t tasted them yet, go right ahead: http://broliumedus.lt/produkto-kategorija/medaus-arbatos-skanestai/). In this case, you’ll be grateful to this honey drink for lowering your cholesterol. Does it get any better than this?
Protects against cardiac and vascular disease.
Antioxidants have been proven to protect the cardiovascular system. Besides, as we’ve already mentioned, drinking water mixed with honey helps regulate cholesterol levels. And the latter are directly linked to diseases of the heart and can even cause heart attacks. If there’s any danger of a heart attack, it’s one caused by the sheer pleasure of drinking the delicious pairing of honey and water.
Here are six serious reasons for including water mixed with Brolių Medus honey into your daily regimen: on an empty stomach in the morning and in the evening before bed. In order to make this ritual even more pleasant, we have a couple of ideas for you: drop a few leaves of mint or a few slices of lemon or lime into your glass as well. You can also try adding some spice to your honey water mix with a little cinnamon (it reduces sugar cravings), turmeric or ginger.
We also suggest you try out our Brolių Medus treats – you’ll have no more reasons not to drink honey water! Honey treats are flavoured honey (with freeze-dried fruit and berries) and can be used as a honey tea, a dessert, a spread or a cooking ingredient.
How can you make a water drink with Brolių Medus honey or treats (honey teas)? Take one teaspoon of our honey or your favourite honey treat and mix with warm (not hot!) water. For a honey drink with a refreshing flavour, try honey with peppermint, for warmth — with raspberries, for a vitamin C boost — with quince, for an unexpected flavour — with rowan-tree berries, for cosiness — with sea buckthorn berries, for a tea substitute — with ginger and lemon, for cold prevention — with cranberries, etc. Such a drink will be both mildly sweet and pleasantly flavoured with a touch of berry, fruit or herb. Even kids will get to like Brolių Medus treats and the drinks you make with them!
Experts of folk medicine even say that a drink of water mixed with honey is similar to blood plasma. Dissolved in water, honey is even more beneficial and more easily absorbed by the body than in its pure form.
When should you drink water mixed with Brolių Medus honey or honey treats? Drink it twice a day: in the morning on an empty stomach and in the evening. It will help your kidneys function better. We recommend drinking your glass of honey drink in several large gulps, so that the liquid goes straight to your digestive tract.
We’re happy to see you’ve gotten this far – if you’re reading these lines, then you’re clearly interested in being healthier and happier. Why not seal the deal with a special drink — a teaspoonful of honey mixed with a brimming glass of water? Sweet! To your health and happiness!
