FAQ 💡❓
Why is it recommended to drink lukewarm water and not cold water with honey?
➡️ Warm water helps to dilute and absorb honey quickly without destroying the beneficial enzymes, unlike hot water which can degrade the active compounds.
What is the best time of day to drink this drink?
➡️ In the morning, on an empty stomach, to stimulate digestion and prepare the gastrointestinal tract for the first meal.
How quickly do the beneficial effects on digestion appear?
➡️ Most people notice an improvement within a few days of constant consumption, but the effects may vary depending on the body.
Is raw honey more effective than pasteurized honey?
➡️ Yes, raw honey retains the enzymes, antioxidants and antibacterial properties that can be diminished by pasteurization.
Is this remedy also suitable for constipation?
➡️ Yes, it has a mild natural laxative effect that can help regulate intestinal transit.
Is there a type of honey more suitable for this recipe?
➡️ Polyfloral honey or acacia honey are ideal due to their pleasant taste and balanced content of enzymes and natural sugars.
Can the drink also be consumed in the evening?
➡️ Yes, but it is recommended to consume it at least one hour before bedtime, to avoid the energizing effects of honey.
Is this remedy safe for people with gastritis?
➡️ Generally yes, but in acute forms of gastritis, caution and medical consultation are recommended, because honey can stimulate gastric secretion.
Is there a risk of increased blood sugar after consumption?
➡️ Yes, honey is still a natural sugar, so people with diabetes or insulin resistance should consult a doctor before use.
Can it be given to children?
➡️ Yes, but only to children over 1 year old, because honey may contain spores that are dangerous to infants (risk of botulism).
Is this combination effective for detoxifying the body?
➡️ Yes, honey helps eliminate toxins, and warm water supports kidney and intestinal function, contributing to detoxification.
How many days can this cure be followed without a break?
➡️ It can be consumed daily for 30 days, then a break of 1-2 weeks is recommended before resuming.
Can this drink replace morning coffee?
➡️ For some, yes, because it provides natural energy and mental clarity, without the side effects of caffeine.
Does the water have to be at a precise temperature?
➡️ The ideal temperature is around 35-40°C – warm enough not to destroy the honey enzymes, but pleasant enough to drink immediately.
Is it suitable for weight loss diets?
➡️ Yes, it can reduce cravings for sweets and improve metabolism, but it must be accompanied by a balanced diet and exercise.
Are there interactions with digestive medications?
➡️ As a rule, no, but it is best to consume it away from medication, so as not to influence its absorption.
Can it worsen gastric reflux?
➡️ In rare cases, yes – if consumed in large quantities or too close to bedtime. Gradual testing is recommended.
Does the drink also help hydrate the body?
➡️ Yes, it is an effective form of gentle hydration, and honey helps maintain electrolytes.
What happens if honey is dissolved in hot water?
➡️ Some of its enzymes and therapeutic properties are lost, and the benefits are significantly reduced.
Can other ingredients be added to the drink?
➡️ Yes, you can add a little lemon juice or ginger for an even stronger detoxifying effect, but be careful with sensitive stomachs.
