| Chestnut honey, which is known for its apitherapic properties besides its nutritional attributes, is one of the main groups of monofloral honey types. Kastamonu is the most important province because where constitutes two-thirds of the chestnut forest flora of the Black Sea region. Kastamonu Chestnut Honey, produced in apiaries within the chestnut forests, has been registered as a geographical indication and designation of origin. The nutritional value of honey is related to its nutritional and chemical content. Kastamonu chestnut forests have a different distribution with their scattered structure from the coastline to 1000-1200 meters altitude. Therefore, this study was planned with the prediction that chestnut honey produced in different districts has a different composition. The aim of the study is to contribute to official regulations regarding the product, product standardization, and national branding studies by determining mineral and heavy metal contents based on the region where the chestnut honey is produced. As a result of the study, the main concentrations of the elements in the chestnut honey samples were affected by the geographical location, because the apiaries where honey samples were collected in chestnut forests in Kastamonu districts had different altitudes, climates and soil properties, and different secondary flora. The most abundant elements in the samples were potassium (1410.0-6581.5 ppm) sodium (0-204.4 ppm), calcium (125.3-287.5 ppm), and magnesium (24.73-61.88 ppm). Iron (1.32-9.54 ppm), zinc (1.34-20.84 ppm), and manganese (1.39-18.69 ppm) were also found in moderate and others in trace levels. Because … |
