🍯 Honey: The Good and the Bad!
Proper Use for Seniors and Diabetic Patients

As we age, we begin to pay closer attention to what we eat and how it affects our body. Honey is one natural food many people love — myself included — but it must be used wisely, especially for seniors and people living with diabetes.

✅ THE GOOD SIDE OF HONEY

✔ Natural energy booster – A teaspoon of honey can lift your energy and reduce fatigue, especially for older adults.
✔ Soothes cough and throat irritation – Works wonders during cold weather.
✔ Rich in antioxidants – Helps fight inflammation and supports heart health.
✔ Aids digestion – Warm water + honey in the morning can relieve constipation in seniors.
✔ Wound healing – Pure natural honey can help minor wounds heal faster when applied externally.

⚠️ THE BAD SIDE — WHERE CAUTION IS NEEDED

❗ Honey still raises blood sugar
It may be natural, but it is not sugar-free. It contains glucose and fructose which can spike blood sugar if taken carelessly.

❗ Can add unnecessary calories
Too much can contribute to weight gain, which is risky for older adults and diabetics.

❗ Adulterated honey is common
Many brands mix honey with sugar syrup. Seniors and diabetic patients should insist on pure, local, unadulterated honey.

🧓 HOW SENIORS SHOULD USE HONEY

Use small amounts — 1 teaspoon is enough.

Prefer honey as a substitute for table sugar, not an addition.

Take honey with warm water, not hot water.

Avoid taking honey late at night if you have acid reflux.

Combine honey with ginger or lemon for natural immune support.

🍯👥 FOR DIABETIC PATIENTS

Honey is not forbidden, but it must be used cautiously:

Only take honey when your blood sugar is well controlled.

Do not take honey on an empty stomach.

Limit to ½ teaspoon at a time, and not daily.

Prefer honey with high antioxidant content (e.g., dark honey).

Always monitor your blood sugar afterward to see how your body reacts.

If in doubt, avoid honey completely and stick to your doctor’s advice.

🌿 MY PERSONAL NOTE

Over the years, I have learned that the key is moderation. Honey is good, but only when used at the right time, in the right amount, and for the right purpose. Balance is everything!

Rigathi Gachagua, the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader, has announced a strategic alliance with Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka to sweep Nairobi's electoral seats in 2027. Their plan includes:
- Governor, Senator, and Woman Representative seats: DCP will contest these positions.
- Parliamentary seats: DCP will take 16 out of 17 seats, with Wiper taking one.
- Ward seats: DCP and Wiper will share 75 out of 85 seats.
Gachagua emphasized that the opposition will work together, supporting each other's strongholds. He cited past electoral patterns, claiming Nairobi is winnable for the opposition. However, Kalonzo Musyoka has denied any agreement, accusing Gachagua of spreading propaganda.
