As seen in the table above, there are differences in the composition of sugars between honeydew and blossom honeys. Honeydew honey is characterized by a higher concentration of oligosaccharides, mainly the trisaccharides melezitose and raffinose, which are usually not found in blossom honeys. Almos...
On the other hand, glucose, a type of sugar, is not considered keto-friendly, paleo-friendly, or Whole30-friendly due to its high carbohydrate content and refined nature. It is advised to cut out all sweeteners, including honey when following the Whole30 diet. ...

The resulted honey is still very high in water and natural yeasts, but the bees don’t let it to ferment. They fan their wings and create a strong draft across the honeycomb, which enhances evaporation of water from the nectar. This evaporation raises the sugar concentration and prevents ferm...
The Gassmann 2007 Auxerrois smells exotically of chocolate-covered, candied orange rind, tamarind, and mint. Pliable, soothing, and slightly sweet, it retains a satisfying sense of primary juiciness and cooling herbal high-tones and luscious honeydew melon that offset the wine’s more confectiona...
Adults of both species fed with sugar lived on average 4.45±0.19 days, whereas adults provided with honey survived on average 40.62±1.97 days. Rates of host mortality due to parasitoid stings without oviposition were as high as 31.25 and 37.73% for C. pictus and C. diallus, respectively. ...
Many adult parasitoid species feed on sugar sources which include floral nectar, extrafloral sources, and honeydew excreted by homopteran insects to maintain survival and lifetime reproductive success (Heimpel et al., 1997). In agricultural systems, maintaining food sources enhances survival while also...
