Honey


Honey, a sweet watery liquid due to its high sugar content, which is collected in the colonies of honeybees, has been serving as food and medicine for millennia.

O mel, líquido aquoso doce devido ao elevado teor de açúcares, recolhido nas colónias de abelhas melíferas, tem servido desde há milénios de alimento e medicamento.
