Did you know that:🐝 one spoonful of honey is enough to keep a person alive for 24 hours🐝 one of the first coins in the world featured a bee symbol🐝 honey contains live enzymes. The metal spoon kills these enzymes. The best way to consume honey is with a wooden spoon, if not, you can use a plastic one.🐝 honey contains a substance that helps the brain function.🐝 honey is one of the few foods on earth that alone can sustain human life.🐝 bees saved people from starvation in Africa.🐝 propolis produced by bees is one of nature’s most powerful antibiotics.🐝 honey has no expiration date.🐝 the bodies of the world’s greatest emperors were buried in golden coffins and then covered with honey to prevent them from rotting.🐝 the term “honeymoon” comes from the fact that the young couple consumed honey for fertility purposes after marriage.🐝 a bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1,000 flowers and produces less than a teaspoon of honey, but for her it is the work of a lifetime.Thank you, dear bees!#bees #nature #honey #beefacts
