Honey is still sugar, but may not have the same metabolic effects curve. I’ll have to look up Tupelo honey (I’m diabetic).

I looked up some info and saw that no particular honey scored a lower glycemic index than others. Honey may still be better than table sugar (it’s sweeter, and therefore less is needed, plus it has other properties that recommend it over refined sugar), but it’s not “free sweetness” for us extra sweet types.
