In reality, pure organic honey is hard as a rock!
But don’t confuse this natural hardness with crystallization that you might have noticed in a jar of so-called “honey” at your local grocer’s. This crystallization is the result of spraying nectar-producing plants with pesticides and feeding bees with sugar syrup, antibiotics, carbolic acid, calcium cyanide, etc., etc.
Further, in order to mask these horrible additives, commercial producers “purify” their product by heating it at temperatures above 120°F. This liquefies the otherwise hard honey to make it look pretty (albeit completely unnatural) for retail shelves.
One minute of research will tell you that heat treatment, among other things, also destroys honey cell structure, annihilates beneficial enzyme activity, and reduces the amount of minerals and other nutrients. Essentially, all the reasons for which you made the purchase in the first place are completely out the window!
THIS IS WHERE OUR HONEY COMES IN.
It comes to you straight from the beehive, pure, raw, organic, unadulterated in any way, just as Mother Nature intended.
It comes from the mineral-rich Bashkirian region of Siberia where summer lasts only two months, so all flora and fauna have to speed up their reproductive cycles. These conditions result in short, but very intense life processes, thus producing some of the richest, most concentrated, healthy honey on the entire planet.
One of the easiest ways to test Bashkir honey purity and/or quality is through the diastase number, which gauges natural enzyme activity in the end-product. Ours is VERY high at 28 Gothe units. We would be surprised if you were able to find out what this number might be for the honey you currently use (manufacturers guard this damaging information very closely), but we would be even more surprised if it were even a point above 0 (yes, zero). Which, you guessed it, carries the same amount of health benefits – zero.
The bottom line is that we KNOW that our honey is the best and are sure you will think so, too. This is why we offer our guarantee of complete satisfaction or your money back. Dennis Selsoff
