"Honey is mainly fructose (about 38.5%) and glucose (about 31.0%)"
Those are the same ingredients as table sugar (sucrose)
Besides being sweeter and having more calories, the body can't tell the difference.... despite what some here would have you believe.
So, to answer your question, the diabetic patient has to limit their honey intake in much the same manner as their sugar and carbohydrates.... by counting the calories.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

A diabetic can eat almost anything as long as he or she takes into account how much sugar and fat are in the item and adjusts their insulin dose accordingly. Of course, everything needs to be eaten in moderation. If a diabetic really wants to eat something with honey, they can always try substituting agave nectar for the honey. Agave nectar is sweet like honey but is lower in sugar (I think) and doesn't mess with a diabetic's blood glucose levels like honey does.

Yes, no reason why not.
BUT...
They will have to take it into account when working out their diet.
There seems to be an idea going around that diabetics can't eat sugar and that isn't quite right.
Sugars (glucose, fructose, maltose, sucrose, etc) are carbohydrates, as is much of the food we eat. The body takes those carbohydrates and converts them all to to glucose. And glucose is gasoline for humans! If you run out of glucose then your engine will stop. Permanently. Funeral home type permanently.
The pancreas creates insulin, which is the body's glucose controller. If you have too much insulin going round then the amount of glucose in your blood will go down. If it goes down far enough then you can end up in a coma and die. If you don't have enough insulin, then you blood glucose level will go up and that will slowly but surely damage your body, quite badly in the long run. If it goes up to far then you can end up almost poisoning yourself with substances called ketones and that's a trip to the ER with potentially unpleasant consequences.
There are two main formss of diabetes (there are others). Type 1 diabetes is an auto-immune disease, usually (but not always) occurring in childhood. Basically, your body killed the insulin creating cells in your pancreas and you will be injecting insulin for the rest of your life. Type 2 diabetes usually occurs in adults (but not always) and is heavily linked to obesity and can have a genetic component (it can run in families). A type 2 diabetic usually produces insulin, but their body has become resistant to its effect and/or they don't produce enough insulin. Type 2 diabetics usually control there diabetes by diet or tablet medication that lowers insulin resistance or increases insulin production. Type 2 diabetes may get worse with age and need injected insulin too.
An insulin dependent diabetic can adjust the amount of insulin they take to cope with honey, ice cream, doughnuts, black forest gateau and all the other goodies we all love. Someone who relies on diet or tablet medication would have to be very careful eating honey. They have to carefully adjust their diet to fit their body's ability to cope with it.
Yeh, yeh, I know, that was one hell of a long but. :)

Honey is quite similar to sugar, so there is no real advantage from substituting honey for sugar. Unlike sugar, honey provides some minerals — but only in trace amounts. Also, honey is sweeter than granulated sugar, so you can substitute a smaller amount of honey for sugar in some recipes. But honey actually has more carbohydrates and more calories per teaspoon than granulated sugar has. So any calories and carbohydrates you save will be nominal.
If you prefer the taste of honey, go ahead and use it — but only in moderation. Be sure to count the carbohydrates in honey as part of your eating plan.
Please see Google search for more details on Honey and Diabetes.
