If you're one of those people who adores honey, you're already in the choir and you don't need preaching to. You can put on your party hat (or bobbing bee-feeler headband) and go back to celebrating. But if you're on the fence about honey, consider the following:
- Honey may be more effective at soothing nighttime coughs in children than many popular OTC cough suppressants.
- Honey is a time-tested sore-throat soother.
- Medical research is being done to investigate honey's role in the treatment and healing of burns.
- Honey has antimicrobial properties and has been used for centuries to treat wounds.
- Honey is made by honey bees using magic. (Or something like that.)
