Yes, Honey Stinger takes great pride in the selection of ingredients we use in our products, and only use the highest quality available, which include Non-GMO ingredients.

We use honey as a sweetener in our products. Honey has the same glucose to fructose ratio of fruit, 1:1. If you can eat fruit without getting an upset stomach you should be able to eat Honey Stinger without any problems.

No, many Honey Stinger products can be used as a healthy snack alternative or meal replacement because we use honey as our main sweetener and energy source.

Yes! The energy in Honey Stinger comes from honey so you shouldn’t feel large fluctuations in energy if you eat any of our products as a snack.

We use honey as a sweetener in all of our products, though we don’t add any sugar. Honey is comprised of multiple simple sugars: glucose, fructose, maltose, trisaccharides and sucrose. Your body utilizes these simple sugars for energy production to keep you going. On the contrary, complex carbohydrates need to be broken down into simple sugars before they can be used by your body. Therefore, simple sugars provide a more efficient form of energy then complex carbohydrates.

While some vegans eat honey, our products are not vegan because they contain honey, which is produced by friendly bees.

Energy comes from the carbohydrates and the honey. Honey is a natural sugar and lower on the glycemic index than refined sugar. The glycemic index of foods refers to how quickly and how high 'blood sugar' (glucose) increases in comparison to pure glucose. Honey is a mix of simple sugars: glucose and fructose (there are others but in smaller proportions). Sucrose is comprised of glucose and fructose joined together, which our bodies need to break down before they can be used, which takes time. In honey the glucose & fructose molecules are not joined so they can be used straight away.

Sodium, potassium and magnesium are vital electrolytes that keep your muscles functioning while minimizing cramping associated with intense exercise.
