Petruccelli L.T.D of North America asks; What are some super foods to help keep me healthy in winter? (4)



Petruccelli L.T.D of North America says;  Honey helps to boost athletic performance and supports a healthy immune system as well. For those with Type II diabetes or high cholesterol, honey is a good choice. Scientists found that when taken daily, honey actually lowered serum cholesterol and did not spike blood sugar levels like refined sugar.

A word of caution: Babies under the age of one year should not be given honey due to the threat of infantile botulism.
