10 clever uses for honey
Throat soother
If you have a scratchy throat and cough, honey can help speed up your recovery. Because of its antiseptic properties, honey can fight infection and reduce inflammation and swelling. Plus, its thick consistency acts as a “throat coat” that reduces painful soreness. Simply dissolve a few tablespoons of honey into a cup of hot water or herbal tea and drink several times daily or try this homemade ginger-honey beverage for even more immunity-boosting benefits.
