General medicinal properties attributed to all types of honey include antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and wound healing. These properties can be attributed to the many nutritional and bioactive compounds naturally found in honey, including sugars, proteins, amino acids, enzymes, organic acids, vitamins, minerals, phenolic compounds and volatile compounds, many of which are specific for honey derived from certain flowers. The presence of specific enzymes in honey helps determine the freshness and origin of the honey\u003csup\u003e1 \u003c\/sup\u003esuch as Rewarewa Honey.\u003c\/p\u003e\r \u003ch4\u003e\r Serving suggestions of Rewarewa Honey:\u003c\/h4\u003e\r \u003cp\u003e\r Rewarewa Honey can be enjoyed simply as an eating experience by itself, spread generously onto bread or toast. Rewarewa Honey can also be used as a cooking agent and is delicious when added to a marinade or used as an ingredient in cooking. \u003cbr\u003e\r Rewarewa Honey can also be used as a soothing drink by mixing with warm water or adding to herbal or Asian teas.\u003c\/p\u003e\r \u003ch5\u003e\r Caution:\u003c\/h5\u003e\r \u003cp\u003e\r Do not give Rewarewa Honey to a baby under one year of age. This is because there is a small risk with any honey that it may contain spores of the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which can germinate in the immature intestine of a young child and cause infant botulism, a bacterial infection of the intestines. Risk of botulism from honey is only a problem for the immature intestine. Once mature, the intestines can prevent Clostridium spreading and causing botulism.\u003c\/p\u003e\r \u003ch3\u003eProduct Sizes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r \u003cp\u003e250g \u0026amp; 500g\u003c\/p\u003e\r \u003ch3\u003e\r References\u003c\/h3\u003e\r \u003col\u003e\r     \u003cli\u003eda Silva PM, Gauche C, Gonzaga LV, Costa AC, Fett R.
