Product detail:

Honey is composed primarily of the sugars glucose and fructose.Its third greatest component is water.Honey also contains numerous other types of sugars,as well as acids,proteins and minerals.Sugars are also called sweet carbohydrates.Carbohydrates are described by the number of bub-units they contain.Fructose and glucose are monosaccharides,that is simple sugars.Sucrose,which is composed of fructose and glucose linked together,is a disaccharide it comprises a little over 1% of the composition of honey.Honey contains other disaccharides which make over 7% of its composition.Some of the disaccharides in honey are maltose,sucrose,kojibiose,turanose,isomaltose and maltulose.

In addition,honey also contains carbohydrates knowns as oligosaccharides.These are medium-sized carbohydrates containing more than three simple sugar sub-units,often made of
mono and disaccharides.Oligosaccharides are sometimes referred to as "higher sugars".
