LONDON, 19 August. - (ANA) - Honey may outperform conventional treatments for coughs, blocked noses and sore throats, researchers have said. 

 

Scientists from the University of Oxford said GPs can recommend honey as a suitable alternative to antibiotics, which are often prescribed for such infections. 

 

“Honey is more effective and less harmful than usual care alternatives and avoids causing harm through antimicrobial resistance,” they said.  - (ANA) -
