Replying to @Dee I love the idea of baking homemade goodies. However, im offering some light humor to bring home the point that, in reality, many busy parents don’t have this luxury. Some people experience so much daily stress that a packsged treat may lift up their day a little. In our school district many underprivileged children got to school with no breakfast. Being given a Pop Tart & milk before class supported their learning. Some breakfast is better than no breakfast. 🙏

Come on a bee 🐝 garden tour with me!

According to the Savannah Bee Company owner, Ted Dennard, every bee colony visits over five hundred million flowers a year 😳Whoa.

Here are some fun facts about bees 🐝 and honey 🍯:

🐝 “The Bee Movie” got it all wrong. Boys don’t do any of the work in a bee colony! Drones are the male bees. They fly fast and their sole purpose is to mate. They die in 90 days.
🐝 Worker bees are the smallest bees. They are non-reproducing females (yep, the ladies do all the real work).
🐝 Workers serve the Queen bee. They feed her, and any larvae. They guard the hive entrance. They fan their wings to cool down the hive. They come and go to collect nectar and create the hive comb.
🐝 Worker bees create holes in a circular tube, in rows in the wax comb. As heat formed by the activity of the bees softens the wax, the wax hardens to create the vomb structure.
🐝 Young workers secrete a substance called “royal jelly” from their heads. The Queen natures and grows larger because she’s fed this royal jelly.
🐝 The Queen lives 2-5 years, and mates with numerous drones to produce more worker bees.
🐝 Without bees, we’d be missing a lot of food crops. Bees pollinate 80% of the planys we eat.

Honey 🍯 comes from the natural nectar that bees retrieve from flowers after they return from pollinating. The nectar is deposited in the honeycomb and breaks down into simple sugars. Of course nutritionally honey is simply a sugar made up of fructose & glucose.

Depending on its source, bees produce different varietals of honey that vary in color and flavor. 🐝 Check out the Chew the Facts blog for more info - The Amazing Work of Bees.

Replying to @rootof4juiceratio Because medicine is a science. Nutrition is a science. Behavior is a science. Woven together, they create something complex and individual for each of us. #foodmyths #nutritionfacts #eatingbehavior #disorderedeating #lowcarbdiets #dietitiansoftiktok
