Best Answer

it temporarily helps your throat, it soothes it for a couple minutes because of the thick substance, i would suggest any kind of warm tea, you can mix honey into it but get some ginger and put a bunch of it in the tea, it will taste really tangy and bitter but it helps your throat alot.

Raw honey can be beneficial for sore throats that result from injury or illness. Raw honey is different from pasteurized honey because it can act as an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory agent.

Does honey help your throat?

Lemon and honey in hot water is a traditional Chinese sore throat treatment. Use enough to flavor it like a hot tea. Honey is known to have antibacterial properties. Lemon is high in vitamin C. The warm drink just feels good going down. If you are not fond of lemon, lime would probably be a good substitute. Although, it has about half the vitamin C of a lemon. Just a caution, if you have asthma, many doctors recommend that you stay away from honey. It is a trigger for some asthmatics.
