HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE REAL THING?

Raw honey is very different from artificial honey which contains sugar syrups, molasses, corn syrup, dextrose and other flavors and additives.

Here are some simple home tests to check for honey purity:

THUMB TEST

1. put a small drop of honey on your thumb.

2. Check to see if it spills or spreads around.

3. If it does, it is not pure.

4. Pure honey will stay intact on your thumb.

WATER TEST

1. Fill a glass with water.

2. Add one tablespoon of honey into the glass.

3. Adulterated or artificial honey will dissolve in water and you will see it around the glass.

4. Pure honey will settle right at the bottom of the glass.

THE BREAD TEST

Spread some honey on a slice of bread. If the slice hardens in minutes, it is pure honey. Adulterated honey will wet the bread because of its water content.

KELULUT & GELAM

Kelulut Honey is produced by stingless bee (Trigona spp.), commonly known as 'Kelulut' in Malaysia, it is slightly sour because it ferments more & studies show that antioxidant properties increase after fermentation. Among the most important substances produced by Kelulut is Propolis, which is produced by bees through saliva mixing with food substances such as pollen, bark, and flowers. Young bees and cocoons of Kelulut are very sensitive to viruses, fungi and pests. To ensure the nest is kept clean & sterile  Propolis produced by Kelulut bees functions as Anti-Fungal, Anti-Viral and Anti-Bacterial agent. Propolis has many health benefits, containing 16 Amino Acids, Glucose, Vitamins A, B, C, D and E, Bioflavonoids and Minerals. Bioflavonoids contribute to the smooth running of the human body’s repair systems. It is widely used and consumed by the aborigines and is believed to have better performance than honeybee honey.

GELAM HONEY is a Malaysian honey from the flower of Gelam tree (Melaleuca cajuputi) that was collected and produced by Apis mellifera bees.

This honey has been proven to have high flavanoid and phenolic contents. The major phenolics contents that has been identified were ellagic, gallic, and ferulic acids. The researchers also reported that the extracted phenolic and flavanoid content from Gelam honey showed in-vitro anti-inflammatory effect and stated that Gelam honey has a potential therapeutic value in an inflammatory conditions.
