Grew up in a time when doctors made housecalls, Old Doc Iden prescribed honey to me and siblings for this basic reason.

Honey has long been known for its health and healing properties. Decades ago, it was put on wounds to promote healing.

...”consuming raw honey from a single floral source may have significant benefits for cardiometabolic health.”

There is no such thing as honey from a single floral source.

No matter where you are, the bees are going to mix it up a bit and forage any nectar available.

When I was in high school our football coach told us to eat raw honey, straight from the comb if possible.

imho honey & maple syrup are good for the young who can handle the sugar in honey & maple syrup. That is, they can burn it off

Old metabolism don’t do well with sugar.

I read a study that showed honey works as well as or better than cough medicine in suppressing coughs.

This should have been posted in a “1940s era” category...

This paper is a classic example of the depths-of-innocuousness to which fundamental research has fallen over the past 60 years...

I started replacing sugar in black tea with honey. It needs a sweetener. I initially made the switch to see if some allergies would be helped. I no longer get those allergies.

I have a couple of cups of tea per day with 1 teaspoon of honey each.

Some other daily intakes; Turmeric & Cayenne Pepper on a meal, almonds, walnuts, green tea, 2 cups of coffee (no sweetener), EVOO, limited starchy carbs. I never get hunger pains.

It must be the bee spit mixed with sugar which transforms honey as something beneficial.

What I always heard is that you want honey from your region i.e., maybe your own state or even county, as it is from local plants...and in addition to cardiac help it might help with allergies/inflammation/local immunity. Who knows?
