When I was a kid I found an injured bumblebee in the frontyard. I got a stick with honey on it and had the bumblebee crawl onto it and then we just sat on the front steps of my house until it flew away. I'll never forget that. The store bought honey probably did not help the bee but at the time I sure thought it did.
I guarantee you did help. Nectar is functionally concentrated sugar water, and honey is even more concentrated than that! Bees are also known to raid abandoned hives for their honey.
