Allow me to write about the importance of honey (o pulot) galing sa mga bees (o bubuyog) for many do not understand how good it is for the body.
I read an article entitled “Why has bees been declared as the most valuable living being on our planet?”
Let me quote a study from the Agriculture Corporation of Chile, in South America: “With the support of the Foundation for Agrarian Innovation (FIA), conducted a study where it was determined that bees are the only living being that is not a carrier of any type of pathogen, regardless of whether it is a fungus, a virus or a bacterium.”
In other words, honey from bees is medicinal and is healthy for the body. It kills fungus, viruses and bacteria that may infect our body.
“The agriculture of the world depends on 70% of these insects to put it more clearly and directly, we could say that 70 of 100 foods are intervened in favor by bees. Also the pollination that the bees make allows the plants to reproduce, of which millions of animals feed, without them, the fauna would soon begin to disappear.”
“The honey produced by bees, not only serve as food, but also provide many benefits to our health and our skin.”
To quote what Albert Einstein: “If the bees disappear, humans would have 4 years to live.” That’s how important the existence of bees on our lives.
I will continue this topic which is important to us. “But one of the greatest reasons for its disappearance is attributed to the fumigation of crops…”
We must “prohibit, not reduce, the use of pesticides.” It tells us to use natural agricultural alternatives.
Deforestation is one of the biggest disasters that can happen to breeding our bees. As trees are cut, the less breeding of honey from bees.
