Sport and honey – a perfect match
There’s a good reason for it, too, as the unique combination of quick and slow release sugars naturally found in honey makes it an excellent source of energy for peak performance. Honey is the ideal snack for maximising energy levels before sport, avoiding slumps between sessions, and quickly replenishing energy stores post-exertion. Athletes are particularly keen on the high level of glucose found in honey, as this is absorbed into the body immediately for a fast-acting energy boost.
