lion honey Complaints & Reviews

lion honey — honey no good

Hi last weak i purchase lion brand honey but the honey not pure,plz help how to i complaint and how i find honey is good or not.

Reliance fresh honey — honey is impure

honey is totally impure ..if its left in a spoon for some time it gets separated into water ..

>70% of honey contains Sugars. Over a period of time, they might crystalize. so it is not an aissue. The taste and color remains the same.

So keep loving Honey.. and Lion's honey!

I too purchased this product. It is horrible. Smells like urine when left open for sometime. I did not open the bottle the second time ever. Bottle still lying in my kitchen. only waiting to be thrown.

Honey being extracted after it is collected from bee colonies.

NEW DELHI: That spoonful of “guaranteed pure” sweetness may be hiding a bitter secret. Branded honey sold in India is likely to be contaminated with harmful antibiotics, according to a new study by the Centre for Science and Environment.

CSE's Pollution Monitoring Laboratory tested 12 leading brands of honey sold in Delhi, including those made by Indian companies such as Dabur, Himalaya, Patanjali, Baidyanath and Khadi as well as by two foreign companies based in Switzerland and Australia. Scientists found high levels of six harmful antibiotics in 11 samples, with only the Indian Hitkari brand coming out clean.

The contamination is the end result of a murky chain, which begins when antibiotics are fed to bees to prevent disease, promote growth and increase honey production to meet commercial targets. When they make their way into your daily spoonful of honey, these substances could damage the blood, kidneys, liver, bones and teeth. More importantly, they create resistance in the body to prescribed antibiotics when you really do fall ill, says the CSE report.

Most developed countries have banned or strictly regulated antibiotics in honey, and Indian companies must meet those standards when they export their products. However, in a stinging example of double standards, most Indian companies are dumping their contaminated honey on the domestic market, since there are no regulations here, says the CSE.

Dabur Honey — which has captured 75 per cent of the Indian market — had the antibiotic Oxytetracycline at nine times the level that is permitted for exported honey. It also had significant amounts of two other drugs completely banned for use in honey. If the sample was placed for export to the U.S. or the European Union, it would have been rejected.

Interestingly, Dabur was recently involved in a controversy in Nepal, where leading newspapers claimed that its honey was substandard and used harmful chemicals. The company dismissed it as part of a “smear campaign” against Indian products, but the sticky claim has now come from an Indian source.

Nectaflor Natural Blossom Honey, made by Narimpex of Switzerland, had the largest number — five — of the six antibiotics that it was tested for, including the highest levels of ampicillin and erythromycin, both of which are not permitted for beekeeping in any country. It would be illegal to sell it even in Switzerland itself. Similarly, Australian brand Capilano Pure & Natural Honey, sold in 40 countries, violated standards set in its home country.

“It is clear that foreign companies are taking advantage of the lack of regulations in India. After all, if our government does not care about the health of its people, why should these companies care?” said CSE director Sunita Narain, at the release of the study on Wednesday.

“We have standards for antibiotic contamination in the honey we export. The government even tests and certifies that exported honey meets health and safety regulations. But we do not have any standards for domestic honey. This is clearly unacceptable, ” she said.

Not Ever Brand Company(Reliance Fresh) sales good quality Dabur Honey. or it may happen that Dabur Company is now releasing Impure, Added Sugar Honey.

Lion has no proper food standards on dates as well as honey, both of the products is a complete fraud. Dates will have all the dust, dirt, even rat poop sometimes, some dates have little worms crawling inside. and the Honey its horrible, its true Honey tend to crystallize when refrigerated, but test for its purity.

Take a teaspoon of honey and just pour it in a glass of water, do not stir it, the honey must settle down without dissolving in water, until you stir it. But lion honey partially dissolves in water that shows its adulterated with simple sugar or jaggery.

Lion Honey (1+1 offer 250g each) is the worst honey I have ever tasted. It stinks like cow dung or God knows what.
Guys, it's high time you take some serious measures to improve the taste and smell of your products, looking at the list of negative comments.

Foul smell observed in Lion Honey(1+1), it dissolves in water which shouldn't. No results on drinking honey + lemon daily in the morning.

I feel like tasting some oil mixed with some acids . What happens to our kids if give with milk or something . It is not at all like honey in taste. I bought 1 kg lion honey with 1+1 offer and spend 480rs total waste of money.

This is India how companies treat us. Because of our law and fssi. Patanjali honey also cheat us. Shame less peoples.
