Cheruthen vs Regular Honey: What Makes It the Gold Standard for Health?
If you’ve ever stood in a supermarket aisle wondering whether all honey is the same—you're not alone. We’ve all been there, scanning labels, looking for words like “pure,” “organic,” or “natural.” But here’s something most people don’t know: all honey is not created equal.
Let us introduce you to Cheruthen, a variety of honey so rare and potent, it’s often called the gold standard of medicinal honey. And yes—you can get your hands on authentic, stingless bee honey right here at www.cloveandbay.in.
What Exactly Is Cheruthen?
The word Cheruthen means “small honey” in Malayalam—a nod to the tiny stingless bees (Meliponines) that produce it. These bees may be small, but the honey they create is anything but ordinary.
Unlike the thick, sugary supermarket honey we're all familiar with, Cheruthen is:
- Runny in texture
- Tangy-sweet in flavor
- Packed with medicinal goodness
It’s nature’s nectar in its most honest form.

Why Is Cheruthen Considered Medicinal?
Here’s what makes Cheruthen truly special: it’s produced by bees that collect nectar from medicinal plants. That means every drop of Cheruthen is rich in:
- Antioxidants
- Antibacterial enzymes
- Wound-healing compounds
-
Natural immunity boosters
In fact, in traditional Ayurvedic practices—especially in Kerala—Cheruthen is given to infants in small drops to build natural immunity. It's also used for:
- Soothing sore throats
- Healing wounds
- Aiding digestion
- Calming skin issues like acne or rashes
This isn't just honey—this is a natural health remedy in its purest form.
How to Spot Real Cheruthen (and Avoid Imitations)
With the growing popularity of medicinal honey, it’s no surprise that many products claim to be "pure" or "organic." But here's how to make sure you're buying the real thing:
- It’s sold in small bottles (stingless bee honey is produced in very limited quantities)
- It has a distinct aroma and tangy-sour taste
- The label mentions stingless bees or Meliponine honey
- And best of all, it’s available directly from trusted sources like us at www.cloveandbay.in
Pro tip? If it tastes like sugar syrup or just like any supermarket honey—it’s probably not Cheruthen.
