A: Energy comes from the carbohydrates and the honey. Honey is a natural sugar and lower on the glycemic index than refined sugar.

Honey is a mix of simple sugars: glucose and fructose (there are others but in smaller proportions).

In honey the glucose & fructose molecules are not joined so they can be used straight away.
