7. Immunity
The immune system is always working. This system is the part of the body that helps fight off any disease that might be trying to invade the body. Keeping your immune system healthy and working at its optimum level is essential to your overall health. One of the ways that you can help support your immune system and all the work that it is doing is to add some honey to your diet.
Honey is full of antioxidants. Antioxidants help to fight off free radicals in the body. When free radicals are left unchecked, they can cause all sorts of health issues, including cancer. Adding some honey to your diet each day can actually help boost your immune system, thus decreasing your risk of developing certain diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. You can add honey to tea, take a spoonful by itself, or use it as a sweetener on cereal.
