Solution

The correct option is A True
Honey is a sweet liquid made by bees using nectar from flowers. Bees first convert the nectar into honey by a process of regurgitation and evaporation, then store it as a primary food source in wax honeycombs inside the beehive. Honey can then be harvested from the hives for human consumption.
Honey also possesses antiseptic and antibacterial properties and also helps for the following:
1) Healing wounds and burns
2) Honey for treating allergies
3) Fighting infection
4) Cold relief
