Another simple method to check the purity of honey is the water test.
To put it into practice, fill a glass of water, then pour in a spoonful of honey. If it melts, the honey is not pure.
Artificial honey dissolves easily in water and spreads throughout the glass. Pure honey, on the other hand, will sink to the bottom of the glass and remain intact.
The honey must be absolutely pure and organic. Substances such as dextrose, glucose, molasses, sugar, corn syrup, flour or starch, among others, may be present in fake honey.
Pure honey contains approximately 16 minerals, 21 vitamins, 18 amino acids and various phytonutrients with antioxidant and healing properties.
