Okay, so this weekend, we learned that gymnasts (including USA Gymnastics🇺🇸) use honey to improve their grip on the parallel bars. BUT on Monday, we confirmed that these world-class athletes slug plenty of honey as a source of energy, too! We're so proud of our bronze medal-winning U.S. gymnastics team, and ecstatic that they choose 100% U.S. honey to help fuel their quest for gold💪 For those of you wondering: why honey? Raw & unfiltered honey is almost entirely made up of 2 sugars: fructose and glucose. Glucose is very quickly absorbed by your muscles as a source of energy, while fructose takes a bit longer. Eating a mix of both (like honey) provides your body with fuel that can last for minutes to hours. Honey is also a go-to for marathon runners and other endurance athletes. Now you know 🍯

Loved seeing USA gymnastics using 100% U.S. honey this morning in Paris. We hear that gymnasts use it on their hands to help maintain their grip🙌 Honey also makes a quick-hitting source of energy any time you need it. But we can neither confirm nor deny if gymnasts were slugging honey shots before their routines this morning. #100waystousehoney

Every honey tells a unique story🍯 The story of Moore Honey Farm in Texas is particularly sweet: a father/son beekeeping duo and a uniquely bold honey thanks to the local floral sources like the tallow tree. Try our Texas honey blend for a sweet flavor as bold and rich as the Lone Star State. If you're not located in Texas, shop it and the rest of our 23+ Local Hive honeys on our site.

Here's our shortlist of things you can do with crystallized honey: Eat it. (It's still perfectly safe to eat. Just crunchy.) Reliquify it. Place your bottle of honey in a warm (not hot) bath of water until it naturally turns liquid again. Scrub a dub dub. Crystallized honey is both naturally moisturizing and exfoliating. Rub it on any part of your skin you want to rejuvenate, then rinse it off. #100waystousehoney
