                                Heating raw honey above hive temperature begins a process of degradation, with significant loss of beneficial compounds starting at temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F). This means the gentle, natural properties of honey are extremely sensitive to heat, and boiling can quickly strip away its nutritional value.
