What is Sidr honey?+
Sidr honey is a monofloral honey produced from the blossoms of the wild jujube tree (Ziziphus). It is one of Morocco's rarest harvests — short autumn flowering, low yield per hive — traditionally consumed for vitality and recovery.
What is Daghmous honey?+
Daghmous is a rare Moroccan honey produced from the resinous euphorbia of southern Morocco. Distinctive bitter-sweet profile with a characteristic peppery throat afterburn. Considered one of the country's most prized therapeutic honeys.
What is amlou?+
Amlou is a traditional Berber paste from the Souss region made from roasted almonds, cold-pressed culinary argan oil, and Moroccan honey. Naturally rich in vitamin E and unsaturated fats. Eaten on bread, with fruit, or by the spoon.
What is the Khalta Rubaiya (royal four-element blend)?+
The Khalta Rubaiya is a Moroccan royal blend of euphorbia honey, fresh pollen, raw propolis, and fresh royal jelly. One spoon a day supports immunity, vitality, and hormonal balance according to traditional use.
Are Riad Bio products halal?+
Yes. All Riad Bio products are halal by composition — no non-bee animal ingredients, no alcohol, no pork derivatives. Honey is intrinsically halal under Islamic dietary law.
How do I tell raw honey from industrial honey?+
Raw Moroccan honey crystallizes naturally over time, has subtle origin-specific aromas, and varies slightly between batches. Industrial honey stays liquid year-round with uniform color and flavor. Riad Bio honeys are non-pasteurized and minimally filtered.
How should honey be stored?+
At room temperature, away from direct sunlight, in its original glass jar. Avoid heat sources. Crystallization is normal and not a sign of spoilage — gently warm the jar in a water bath under 40°C to re-liquefy if desired.
When is the best time to take honey?+
Morning on an empty stomach for energy and digestion (15-20 minutes before breakfast); evening before bed for sleep and immunity. Always with warm — not boiling — water to preserve the natural enzymes.
How much honey per day?+
One to two teaspoons per day (5-10 grams) is enough for a healthy adult. Beyond that, benefits plateau and calories add up. For a targeted cure, count 21 to 40 days, then a one to two week pause.
Can children eat honey?+
Honey should never be given to infants under 12 months due to a rare but real risk of infant botulism. From age 1 onward, honey is safe and beneficial. Riad Bio recommends consulting a pediatrician if in doubt.
Can diabetics consume honey?+
Honey contains fructose and glucose and raises blood sugar. Diabetics may consume small amounts (around 1 teaspoon) within a structured meal plan, ideally on advice from a nutritionist.
Is honey safe during pregnancy?+
Standard honey is generally considered safe during pregnancy in moderate amounts. However, royal jelly, propolis, and pollen-rich blends like the Khalta Rubaiya should be avoided without medical advice — they can stimulate hormonal effects.
Which honey for sore throat or cough?+
Thyme honey is traditionally used in Morocco to soothe sore throat and cough thanks to its antiseptic aromatic compounds. Eucalyptus honey is preferred for respiratory comfort. One teaspoon morning and evening in warm water.
