The Hidden Wonders of Honey and the Marvels of Bees

ADVERTISEMENT

A single bee produces less than a teaspoon of honey in her entire lifetime.

Bees flap their wings over 11,000 times per minute.

The queen bee can lay more than twice her own body weight in eggs every day.

More than 1,000,000 flowers are needed to make just one kilogram of honey.

Pollen collected by bees can display over 1500 different colors.

Bees are the only insects that produce food consumed by humans.

Some ancient rulers were embalmed in honey to preserve their bodies.

Bee grazing (consuming pollen, honey, and royal jelly) is considered one of the most nutrient-rich food sources on Earth.

Acacia honey is naturally low in glucose, making it less sweet and ideal for those monitoring sugar intake.
