Honey DOES heal sore throats

I’ve been saying for years that honey cures my sore throats/sinus infections, to which most people just say whatever kid, you just want an excuse to drink tea with too much honey in it. While that part may be true, it turns out I wasn’t entirely wrong.

According to a number of studies, most honey, even processed honey, has at least some anti-bacterial properties. And medical grade honeys, like the Manuka variety discussed in this BBC article from 2004, can apparently even heal wounds.

SCIENCE!
