Cooked honey substitutes--- WAS honey

[Guest guest]

Also, the site explains that when honey is cooked it changes the molecules to a " non homogenized glue that adheres to the mucous membranes and clogs subtle channels, producing toxins. Raw honey is nectar, Cooked Honey is poison. "

Yes, I have an Indian friend who warned me of this and said that it could be why I am so full of mucus on this diet.

So what are the GAPS friendly sweetener alternatives for cooking besides honey? The GAPS book uses honey exclusively for cooking and I'd prefer to only eat it raw.

I am confused if date sugar is OK -She suggests dates for sweetening almond milk so is date sugar OK as long as it is organic?How about sucanat?

i don't know about the date sugar but i know that sucanat is not allowed becaue

it is cane

sugar that has not been as processed as table sugar but their still made from

the same

thing. i'm interested to hear why honey is not suppose to be cooked because it

mucus

forming? this might explain why my son is congested at night.

thanks
