Greek pine honey ( pine honey ) is one of the rarest products in the world. In fact, pine honey is not produced from flower nectar like other varieties, but from honeydew (sugar secretions) and, compared to other types of honey, is thicker and much darker.

Its color is pearly amber with strong reflections, a warm color so attractive. It is rich in minerals such as iron, copper and calcium , has healing properties (experts use it for burns and abrasions on the skin) and its natural property of not crystallizing makes it special.

Honeydew honeys are generally quite dark and thick compared to the lighter varieties.

Thanks to its antibacterial properties , pine honey can be applied directly to the skin as a healing agent. Helps speed up the healing process of wounds, burns and sunburns . Those who use it as a therapeutic tool swear by its effectiveness.

Most honeydew honeys have stronger antioxidant properties than flower honeys. The reason for this is because they contain high levels of flavonoids and phenolic compounds . Antioxidants are important because they help protect against free radicals. Free radicals are known to be associated with premature aging. However, natural aging is a minor concern in relation to other harms that free radicals can cause to human health. Age-related disorders are the most worrying. This can include things like heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and macular degeneration. So we need to embrace anything that can help protect against free radicals.
