What does RAW honey mean?
Raw honey is pure, unheated, unpasteurized, unfiltered and unprocessed.
Raw honey contains antioxidants, present in the form of poly phenols, which help fight off free radicals that contribute to many serious diseases. Honey has antioxidant levels similar to that of apples, spinach, strawberries, and oranges.

Pure natural honey will crystallize over time, if it does not, it means it has been processed.
