You know, the path to a more healthful lifestyle isn't always to change everything you are eating all at once. Over the years I have learned to substitute something in my diet that is not as healthy with something that is better.
As examples, I have substituted table salt with sea salt or redmond salt. I have substituted vegetable oil with Olive Oil & Coconut oil, & of course I have found many opportunities to substitute sugar with honey. I used to throw a little bit of sugar into my spaghetti sauce, or soup & quite frankly nearly all of my cooking. Now I use honey instead. I prefer the taste & certainly prefer to avoid the sugar. I also used to make a fresh lemonade or limeade in the summer with fresh citrus & sugar. One day I slapped my forehead & asked myself why I wasn't using honey. As soon as I did I was blown away at the amazingly flavorful & healthy drink I was enjoying. I have turned many people onto honey limeade since. Usually the idea of "Substitution" is that you are giving up flavor for health. The real surprise to me as I have made these substitutes in my diet is that I have experienced the exact opposite. I love the added flavor & enjoyment that the more natural & healthful options have brought to my table. ENJOY!!

Could you tell me if raw honey retains all the good constituents if it is freeze dried to avoid heating in the process of making a granulated honey?

I've been getting this honey for a few years now and I don't want any other kind. I truly appreciate what you do to make my life nicer.
