Mellona Raw Honey With Beetroot 700g

As a great addition to our very popular pure raw golden Mellona honey we have now launched a new, unique collection of honeys with the superfoods for added nutritional benefits. 100% raw, it is the honey that comes directly from the honeycomb without heating. We mix it with beetroot which is known for its numerous health benefits. The betalain compounds, responsible for the root’s red colour, have been shown to have high anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant capabilities and may help protect cells from damage. It may also help to reduce blood pressure and may improve gut health amongst a number of other many benefits it has.

Raw honey is the healthiest choice among the various forms of it as it has the most nutritional value and contains amylase, an enzyme concentrated in flower pollen which helps predigest starchy foods like breads. Since ancient times, raw honey has been known to have numerous health benefits and healing properties. Its high antioxidant content is beneficial in supporting enzyme activity in the body, and it’s amino acids are natures building blocks of protein. The flavonoids found in raw honey also give a healthy boost of energy. Additionally, raw honey much like vegetables, contains phytonutrients which provide anti-inflammatory benefits. As honey is produced from plants, it also has these phytonutrients. These valuable nutrients are unique to raw honey and disappear when honey is heavily processed.

Mellona’s wonderful raw honey comes from blossoms of scented Mediterranean flora such as Myrophora (wild Cyprus lavender), spatzia (sage), lapsana (rapeseed) and orange blossom. It has an exquisite flavour and fine aroma. The fact that it is unprocessed, without using any heat, means that it retains all of its intended nutritional benefits such as it being rich in antioxidants, amino acids, minerals & vitamins as well as helping with digestion & also being a very good anti-fungal.

We recommend Mellona raw honey with morning cereals, muesli or granola. Over a breakfast toast, mixed with Greek yoghurt and nuts, on waffles, ice cream or any other fruit. Importantly, this natural raw honey is the perfect natural sweetener, and can also be enjoyed by the spoonful entirely on its own.
