Is Raw Honey Better?
The image specifically refers to raw honey.
Raw honey is generally honey that hasn’t undergone the same processing or filtration as many commercial products.

Different honeys have different characteristics, and quality can vary.
For a simple dietary use, the most important consideration is obtaining honey from a reliable source and using it appropriately.
