Is Clover Honey Good Honey?

Clover honey is a great choice if you are looking for a mild tasting honey that delivers all the benefits of regular honey. Like most varieties of honey, it contains essential nutrients that keep the body in good health but the best thing about clover honey is its high antioxidant content. Clover honey is also rich in antioxidants that lend it its anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. This makes it slightly healthier than table sugar.

What is Clover Honey Good For?

Clover honey is rich in a special antioxidant namely flavanol. Flavanol plays a vital role in maintaining heart health because it keeps our blood pressure under check. Flavanol also improves blood flow and that in turn keeps the body healthy, well-supplied and oxygenated.

Is Clover Honey the Same as Regular Honey?

Regular honey is often processed and contains artificial sweeteners. Our clover honey is different. It is completely raw and organic. The bees that produce this honey feed mostly on clover nectar to produce this delicious treat.

Why is Clover Honey so Popular?

Clover honey is so popular because of its delicately sweet and floral taste. It is better than table sugar because it contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents that offer unique benefits to the body. Still, like all varieties of honey, it is an added sugar that needs to be consumed in moderation.

Is Clover Honey Processed?

Clover Honey by Nature’s Blends is fully natural and unrefined. We only use gentle methods to extract our honey and do not pasteurize, process or refine it. We also do not add any artificial sweeteners to our honey or expose it to heat. This way, we ensure that you’re fully benefiting from the natural goodness of honey. 

Is Raw Clover Honey Good for Skin?

Because of its potent anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties, raw clover honey is a wonderful choice for skincare. You can apply it to your face to reduce acne. You can also use it to treat cuts and minimise scarring.

Does Clover Honey Expire?

Clover honey never expires but it can get cloudier in colour and grainier in texture with time. It is still safe to consume as long as you have stored it properly and kept it away from moisture.

What Does Clover Honey Taste Like?

Clover honey is a delicately sweet honey with pleasant floral notes. The mild sweetness gives way to a clean aftertaste reminiscent of fresh hay. The floral aroma would take your taste buds on a leisurely walk through a blossoming orchard. Texture-wise, clover honey is luxuriously creamy and thick.

Clover Honey by Nature’s Blends is harvested from the sunny gardens of South Island, New Zealand where clover is grown in abundance using organic methods.

White clover (Trifolium repens) is a herbaceous plant that comes into bloom in spring through the summer. Honeybees prefer the nectar of white clover flowers to others. Clover honey is produced when bees use white clover as their main source of food.

While clover itself is native to Europe and Central Asia, it can also be commonly spotted in New Zealand where it is grown organically in grassy areas. Clover is also preferred by organic farmers and prized as a pasture plant that nitrogenizes the soil and naturally fertilizes it.

Clover is also an edible plant that has many health uses. Clover extracts are rich in minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium and niacin, all of which should be consumed in trace amounts to maintain good health.

Because of its high antioxidant content, clover and its extracts have also been used in traditional medicine. White clover brews are used to alleviate the symptoms of fever and cough. It is also used to treat nausea, hot flashes and dizziness.

Clover honey also has many applications in traditional medicine. It is used in salves to treat wounds, injuries and ulcers. It is also used as a remedy for skin conditions and infections.

Raw, unfiltered and unprocessed clover honey is packed to the brim with antioxidants and bioactives that give it its special antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It also contains minerals in trace amounts. Because of its nutrient profile and high antioxidant content, this honey provides many health benefits:

Anti-microbial - Clover honey has potent anti-germ properties. Comparative studies found that raw clover honey was most effective in eliminating Staphylococcus aureus, a harmful bacteria that causes respiratory infections. Another study found that applying a 5% clover honey solution to skin cells infected by chickenpox virus drastically reduced its survival rate.

Antioxidant powerhouse - Raw clover honey is rich in a cocktail of powerful antioxidants that counter free radical damage and keep our body healthy. It is loaded with flavanol, that has favourable effects on heart and lung health. It also contains phenol, a bioactive that bolsters our central nervous system.

Strengthens immunity - The anti-bacterial and antiviral effect of clover honey is partially because of hydrogen peroxide, a powerful agent that supports the immune system by warding away infection causing germs.

Heart health - Clover honey is rich in antioxidants like flavanol and minerals like potassium, both of which improve heart health and can reduce the risk of cardiac diseases and strokes.

Bone strength - Honey contains minerals in trace amounts and minerals are vital for bone health. Using clover honey can slow down the loss of bone mineral density.
