Honey? (medihoney)

Anyone ever tried or heard of this? Appears old news.

Haven't heard of medi-honey being used in cancer treatment. Have used it for many years to alleviate sore throats though, as well as for wounds, so it all makes sense. When we were in the Solomon Islands at an isolated hospital we imported honey for the treatment of burns.

I found this report very interesting because my white cells are my biggest problem - 0.9 last time. I didn't realise that medi-honey could actually increase white cells. Thanks!
