Conscious Food launches raw unprocessed Himalayan multiflora honey

Conscious Food, a pioneer of organic food products in India, expands its immunity and wellness foods category with the launch of its new raw unprocessed Himalayan multiflora honey. This completely unfiltered and unpasteurized product retains the immense natural benefits of honey as it travels from ‘bee to the bottle’, the company said.

The Certified Organic Himalayan Multiflora Honey is sourced from the Apis cerana bee species from the Shivalik hills of Uttarakhand, known as the haven of floral biodiversity.

According to the press statement, the raw and unprocessed honey from Conscious Food comes from the Himalayan plains, a rich source of floral biodiversity and cultivated without the use of chemicals. Even the use of Genetically Modified Organisms is prohibited, allowing the flowers that grow, the nectar that is collected, and the honey produced to be wholly organic, as also certified by the Uttaranchal Organic Certification Agency.

Raw honey is not only free of any harmful chemicals, pollutants, or residues. It is also free of any adulteration in the form of sugar or other preservatives. Raw honey is packed with immunity-boosting phytonutrients and is antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal, it said.

Notably, pasteurized honey can increase its glycaemic index, which can have adverse effects on people with diabetes—also, heating honey results in a loss of its essential enzymes and nutrients. Worse still, Ayurveda suggests that when cooked, the molecules of honey produce toxins that may contribute to health problems such as congestion, obesity, indigestion, respiratory diseases, and blood glucose imbalances. The company mentioned that if you want your liquid gold to offer the health and immunity-boosting benefits of natural honey, beware of the processed and adulterated versions, and go for wholly organic and unprocessed honey.

The 500-gram pack of raw unprocessed Himalayan multiflora honey is priced at Rs 780. Also the product is going to be available on online eCommerce platforms, general trade and modern markets soon.
