How do Bees Makes Honey?
How many of us know how the honey that we enjoy at
our breakfast table each day is prepared? It is an interesting story.
Bees live in colonies. A honeybee colony consists of three categories of
bees, the workers, the drones and the queen bee. The workers provide
food and protection to the colony, the drones or fertile males who mate
with the queen, and finally the queen, who lays eggs.Honey is made by
the worker bees in the beehive
The worker bees have many duties. In the beginning, they clean and
polish the hives. After some days, they look after the larvae of the
bees. Eventually, they go out to collect
the nectar form flowers.
Honey is their food, and so, for the bees,
making honey is
the most important thing in their duty. That is like collecting food
from flowers. The flowers contain sweet liquid called nectar. The bees
drink this nectar and carry it to the beehive in their honey sacs. A bee
must visit about 1000 flowers to fill its honey sac. The honey sac is
located near the belly of the bee. A valve separates it from the belly.
The sugar present in the nectar undergoes a chemical reaction. The water
present in the nectar evaporates, and honey is formed, which can be
stored in the hive for a very long time. The honey is needed for the
bee’s colony as food.
There are many ways of extracting honey form the hive. The comb can be
squeezed to yield honey. A machine called honey extractor is also
available for removing honey from the combs. The color and taste of
various kinds of honey vary depending upon nectar of the flowers
collected.
Honey is produced naturally and commercially in most of the countries of
the world. Scientists of today have discovered honey as very effective
medicine for all kinds of diseases.
Honey can be used without side effects. Today’s science says that even
though honey is sweet, when it is taken in the right dosage as a
medicine, it does not harm even diabetic patients.
For us human beings it has been found that a mix of bees honey and
cinnamon cures many diseases.
Cinnamon is a spice that can be purchased in its ground or powdered form
or in the form of sticks. The spice more correctly known as cinnamon is
harvested from the inner bark of the Cinnamon tree. It is also known as
'Ceylon cinnamon,' a reference to its native country of Sri Lanka.
Today, Ceylon cinnamon is commonly grown in Sri Lanka, India,
Bangladesh, Brazil, Vietnam and Madagascar, amongst other countries.
Ceylon cinnamon has a delicate, nuanced flavor that works well in sweet
and savory foods and drinks. It has a paler color than cassia and is
comprised of many thin layers of bark rather than a single coiled strip
of bark. True cinnamon is soft enough to be ground in a grinder.
