That link you added is a study I assume; link seems to be broken.

Hmmm... The link works for me.
It gives you a breakdown of the fructose and glucose content of various honeys (mainly of Australian origin - best I've found so far) showing a large (~50%) fructose content.
That may not be an issue whatsoever, but as far as rapid restoration of glycogen, insulin "spiking" etc., fructose isn't the best choice.
As far as health, fructose per se really isn't entirely the demon we've made it out be - here's an interesting article:
