Honey has been used as a medicine for over 5000 years.
Even Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, noted
that honey "cleans sores and ulcers of the lips, heals
carbuncles and running sores." The swelling in the throat
that causes snoring is reduced when you eat honey. Try
adding honey to tea before you go to bed. It’s a potion
used by opera singers to relax the throat. And to reduce
crowding around the larynx.
