A beehive comprises honeycombs, hexagonal structures that bees use to create honey. Honeycomb typically contains raw honey, which is sweet, and the beeswax itself, which is chewy and has a similar mouthfeel to chewing gum. You can eat pieces of honeycomb by themselves as a sweet snack. You can also put honeycomb in a smoothie as a sweetener or add it to a salad. You can also top warm bread, English muffins, waffles, or vanilla ice cream with honeycomb.  

Raw honeycomb has little to no nutritional value, but liquid honey has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Honey is a natural cough suppressant and may soothe allergies or prolonged cough. Raw honey is unfiltered, so it contains enzymes from the honey bees that give honey antimicrobial and antibacterial properties.

Raw honey can also contain various byproducts like botulism spores, which can be harmful to young children and people who are pregnant or have compromised immune systems. Those allergic to bee venom or pollen should not consume honeycombs.

Polyfloral honeys, also known as wildflower honey varieties are produced by honey bees using the nectar from many different flower species. Such honeys do not display the pure characteristics of any of their production level nectar sources. Different varieties will have their own, unique appearance and aroma. But because only certain nectars give honey a very light pigment and polyfloral honeys contain different nectars, they are often a medium amber color or have darker, brown-reddish reflections, but this is not a rule. As for the taste, they tend to have a stronger flavor profile and sometimes bolder notes, hence the reason some prefer them to milder-tasting monofloral varieties. 

Polyfloral honeys are a source of multiple essential nutrients like B vitamins and vitamin C, potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, but also other elements with nutritional value like pollen particles, enzymes, amino acids etc. Rich in different pollen types, Polyfloral honey exhibits immuno-modulating activity, more exactly it stimulates the immune system to respond better to infection and disease.
