What has happened to us?
Sugar happened.
Before all the Nazis paid off the Allied command and began sugar farms as big as states in South America with the money they pillaged, sugar was reasonably rare.
When people made sweets they used honey. So why is it better? After all it's sucrose like corn syrup. And everyone is up in arms about that. It raises blood sugar same as sugar. So why am I into eating honey for any sweetening needs of my recipes?
If I was a diabetic I would be cautious for sure.
Truth is if you are like the 3000 or so Americans whose blood work was followed in a research study, your body reacts differently to honey long term.
Your blood work would show lower cholesterol, with a higher ratio of HDL to LDL. In fact every ratio including triglycerides would be optimal.
That's why I substitute it for all sugar needs including coffee. And I feel no guilt.
