About Akazienhonig
Akazienhonig, or acacia honey, is a light, clear honey derived from the nectar of the Robinia pseudoacacia (black locust tree), native to Europe and North America. Known for its mild, floral flavor, it is a staple in many European cuisines and valued as a natural sweetener and ingredient. Nutritionally, Akazienhonig is high in carbohydrates (primarily glucose and fructose), providing 300 calories per 100 grams. It contains trace amounts of calcium (5 mg) and iron (0.5 mg), but no protein, fat, or fiber. Akazienhonig has a high fructose-to-glucose ratio, which contributes to its slow crystallization and longer shelf life compared to other types of honey.
Health Benefits
- Provides quick energy due to its high carbohydrate content, primarily fructose and glucose, making it useful for athletes or as a natural energy booster.
- Contains small amounts of calcium (5 mg per 100 grams), which supports bone health and proper muscle function.
- Includes antibacterial properties attributed to hydrogen peroxide and low moisture content, which may help wound healing and soothe sore throats.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store Akazienhonig in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably in an airtight container to prevent moisture absorption and fermentation.
