About Tablespoon of honey

A tablespoon of honey is a natural sweetener made by bees using nectar from flowers. This golden substance is prized in cuisines worldwide, from Middle Eastern desserts to American barbecue sauces. One tablespoon contains approximately 64 calories, with 17 grams of sugar, making it a carbohydrate-dense ingredient. Honey offers trace amounts of vitamins like B2 and B6, and minerals such as zinc and potassium, along with antioxidant properties that may support immune health. Its natural compounds, including flavonoids, are linked to anti-inflammatory benefits. While honey is healthier than refined sugar due to its additional nutrients, its high calorie and sugar content mean it should be consumed sparingly, particularly by those managing blood sugar levels. Raw, unprocessed honey may also retain enzymes with potential health benefits. Whether drizzled over oatmeal or used as a tea sweetener, honey’s versatility and natural origins make it a treasured ingredient across cultures.
