We explain why you shouldn’t add honey to tea.
Why you shouldn't add honey to tea
Honey is indeed a healthy alternative to sugar. However, you should not add honey to tea.
The fact is that when honey is heat treated, the substances it contains turn into carcinogens.
This process starts already at +35 degrees. Therefore, honey should never be added to hot tea.
For the same reason, it is not recommended to add honey to baked goods.
You also need to understand that honey, like sugar, contains fast carbohydrates. It is unlikely that you will lose weight by replacing honey with sugar.
