What is Buckwheat honey? Despite the name, buckwheat is not a cereal grain, but the seed of Fagopyrum esculentum, a plant related to sorrels and rhubarb. Planted as a second crop or in cooler climates, a short growing season makes buckwheat the predominant flora available to bees for nectar collection. The honey produced from buckwheat is dark, amber-coloured, and rich in antioxidants.
The dark, amber-coloured buckwheat honey in Bee Heart Healthy is a 100% pure, unprocessed Canadian honey. Like all NutraBee, pure gourmet honey products, this is a rich-tasting honey everyone can enjoy.

Gourmet Wildflower Honey. For a great-tasting, easy-to-digest 100% pure unprocessed Canadian honey try our Mountain Gold Wildflower Honey. Collected from wildflowers, this light, raw honey contains enzymes from the digestive tracts of bees collecting the nectar. When honey is heated and pasteurized during processing, these healthy enzymes are destroyed. Processing honey by ultra-filtration also removes bits of bee pollen, a natural anti inflammatory, which all honey products should contain. Without pollen, it is impossible to authenticate where the honey was produced or if the honey was contaminated by pesticide residue.
Besides the lack of pollen, some beekeepers feed their bees sugar or pollen substitutes. There is no substitute for the variety of flower pollen and nectar collected by bees. Whether from fields of buckwheat, alfalfa, manuka or wildflowers, the taste, texture and scent of the final honey product depends on plants, not sugar or pollen substitutes. By letting bees feed as nature intended, they produce the great-tasting honey known by past generations.
The bottom line is that fake honey products have a long shelf life, but no health benefits. Some are even adulterated with cheaper corn, beet or cane sugars. Only pure, unprocessed honey with all the enzymes and pollen intact can deliver the benefits of real honey.
As with all NutraBee pure gourmet honey products, our Mountain Gold Wildflower Honey is 100% pure, unprocessed and Canadian. We know you will enjoy Mountain Gold Wildflower Honey, our gourmet honey for everyday use.
