I keep seeing everywhere how honey supposedly turns "toxic" when cooked or added in hot drinks, what Is the base behind this claim? I've been adding honey to my tea and nothing happened to me

Seeing where? How could you possibly believe this as true? Honey is regularly used in both baked goods and probably it's primary use is as a sweetener for hot drinks. The only thing that happens if you bring honey to too high of a temperature is that the more subtle flavoring compounds get destroyed from the heat, rendering it essentially just regular high fructose corn syrup. That's it.

The only thing toxic about honey is all the corn syrup in it.

>> No.17725293

>>17724228
There’s no basis behind it. Probably an off stem from the fact that you shouldn’t feed it to infants because of the botulism risk. Their immune systems can’t fight off the bacteria and it will produce the toxin inside them if they eat it because it sometimes contains spores. They can’t thrive in the honey itself, but the bacteria will live and reproduce inside the body of an infant.

Maybe it was a mix up based on the 'mad-honey', produced by bees who gather pollen from a psychoactive flower.

As far as I know, going above 80 degrees denaturatulise some of the enzymes that are used to turn pollen into honey. They shouldn't make a difference.
I do think heating it up on its own might cause a texture change, like becoming grainy.

If you heat it up beyond 40 degrees Celsius it is going to loose most of properties that separate honey from sugar syrup, bees did the work for nothing.
Uncle was beekeeper knew his shit. It even tastes different fresh from wax plates.

It comes from Ayurveda. Some of the herbal compounds from Ayurveda actually work, with fewer to no side effects when compared to pharmaceuticals, but a lot of their framework seems erroneous. That being said, India was in pretty good shape until the Muslim horde invaded, so maybe theres something to its ability to sustain health.

Honey becoming toxic when cooked is probably bs tho.

>> No.17728406

Honey is just sugar syrup, so of course it's toxic. In any form.
