Why Honey.....Answered, I think...

[jakew912]

I've read in some posts that some guys suggest taking honey before a workout.
What are the benefits to honey? How much quantity and how long before a workout should you take it?

Re: Why Honey???

Think I found the answer to my own question. Found a couple of articles that recommend taking honey before and after your workout....
It is supposed to provide energy when taken 20 to 30 min prior to workout, and a good source of healthy carbs to combine with your protein after a workout.
It is also full of antioxidants and other goodies. Both articles recommended a tablespoon per serving, and to make sure you use all natural pure honey.

Local honey to your area is also a natural way to fight hay fever and grass/pollen allergies.

I always eat an apple. I find the natural fructose does the same thing.
