Honey vs sugar: effects on glucose and cholesterol

A scientific study has shown that replacing white sugar with honey, especially raw honey or Robinia honey, may lead to a modest decrease in blood sugar levels during fasting and a reduction in bad cholesterol, along with a slight increase in good cholesterol. The study involved 18 clinical trials with 1,105 participants who consumed approximately 40 grams of honey daily for eight weeks. Despite the positive results, the study emphasized that honey is not a cure for diabetes or high cholesterol, and that its benefits depend on replacing sugar rather than adding honey to a diet already high in sugars. Further research is necessary to confirm these findings.
