Honey
What It Helps:
How It Helps:
Flavinoids found in the honey help produce a lot of antioxidants
Contains antibacterial properties
Also has anti-inflammatory properties
Manuka honey (a tree found in New Zealand & parts of Australia) contains all the properties as well as antiviral, antibiotic, and also helps with wound healing
Tips & Other Info.
Having throat pain or cough? Take/eat a spoonfull (or half a spoon if it's too sweet for you).
When buying Manuka honey, look at the UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) and MGO (methylglyoxal-which has to do with the antioxidant and antibacterial content) numbers on the container. The higher the UMF the higher the MGO the better Manuka quality.
When drinking herbal tea I usually don't add sugar, instead I substitute it with some regular honey or Manuka honey.
