Acacia Honey — Kashmir | Raw | 500g
Raw Acacia Honey — Low GI · For Blood Sugar
The honey for people who avoid honey. GI 35–50. Fructose-dominant. Doesn't spike blood sugar.
If you've been told to cut honey because of blood sugar — acacia is the exception worth knowing. Most honeys have a glycaemic index of 55–80. Acacia sits at 35–50. The reason is composition: acacia honey is unusually high in fructose, which metabolises through the liver rather than directly raising blood glucose. That's why doctors monitoring blood sugar sometimes permit acacia specifically when other honeys are off the table. Beyond blood sugar, nothing else changes: this is still raw, cold-filled, never heated above 40°C. The enzyme activity is intact. The antimicrobial compounds are intact. The Robinia flower blooms in Kashmir's valleys in a short spring window — which is why the honey is so pale and mild, with none of the heaviness of darker honeys. If it crystallises, sit the sealed jar in warm water for 20 minutes. Never microwave. Crystallisation means it has never been heated — it is the single best sign the honey is real.
GI of 35–50 vs sugar's 65. Fructose releases slowly — steady energy without the mid-morning dip that regular sugar causes.
Acacia is a natural prebiotic — it feeds good bacteria in your gut. One teaspoon in warm water every morning is the simplest gut habit you can build.
One teaspoon before bed signals your brain to lower orexin — the chemical that keeps you awake. More effective than most herbal sleep teas.
Antimicrobial compounds work at room temperature — never add to boiling water or you destroy them. Works with warm water, ginger and lemon.
Why it works
Feeds the good bacteria in your gut
- Raw honey contains natural fibres that feed the good bacteria in your gut. These are called fructooligosaccharides — but simply put, they are food for your gut bacteria.
- Lab studies show raw honey fights harmful bacteria in the gut — including H. pylori, the bacteria linked to stomach ulcers.
- 1 teaspoon daily on an empty stomach gives your gut bacteria the best chance to benefit.
Fights bacteria naturally
- Raw honey produces hydrogen peroxide naturally. This fights harmful bacteria without being harsh on your body.
- Raw honey also retains natural protective compounds from the bees and blossoms. These are lost when honey is heated.
- Always use water below 40°C. Above that, you start losing the active compounds that make it work.
Steady energy — not a sugar spike
- Acacia honey is unusually high in fructose. Fructose digests more slowly than regular sugar, so you get energy gradually — not all at once.
- This makes it a better choice than refined sugar for tea, oats, or pre-workout fuel.
- The GI of 35–50 means a much gentler effect on your blood sugar than regular sugar or most honeys.

Cold-filled honey is thicker, more viscous, and more floral than heated commercial honey. The pale colour and strong smell are signs of intact enzymes. Heated honey smells faintly of caramel.
1 tsp daily in warm water on an empty stomach. Most people notice more consistent digestion within 2–3 weeks. The prebiotic fibres in raw honey feed beneficial gut bacteria.
Raw honey's antimicrobial and prebiotic effects are cumulative. Most visible during winter months — fewer colds, faster recovery. Effects don't happen in a week.
Is this for you?
How to use it
Use water below 40°C. Above this temperature, the active enzymes start to break down. Never use boiling water.
Use as a 1:1 replacement in tea, coffee, oatmeal, and dressings. The acacia variety is mild enough not to overpower other flavours.
Raw honey does not need refrigeration. Store below 25°C away from sunlight. If it crystallises, sit the sealed jar in warm water for 20–30 minutes. Never microwave.
What customers say
Not too sweet and slightly thick. Very different from what I was buying earlier. Feels pure and natural. Happy with this. 😊
Crystallised in 2 weeks. That's when I knew it's real raw honey. Satisfied with quality and delivery both. Highly recommend.
My kids eat it directly without complaints. Taste is mild and natural, not artificially sweet like store brands.
Packaging was properly sealed and delivery was quick. Honey is thick and fragrant. Will keep ordering from Nutkash.
