It Could Help With Diarrhea
If you ever find yourself suffering from diarrhea, honey may be able to help you out. In fact, a group of researchers decided to investigate the usage of honey for the treatment of diarrhea, and their findings were published in the Journal of Research in Medical and Dental Science. A total of nearly 150 children with acute gastroenteritis participated in the series of tests that were undertaken.
The Experiment
In this study, the children were divided into two groups, with one group receiving a “oral rehydration solution” mixed with honey and the other receiving a placebo. While the rest of them were deprived of nectar, they were not alone. The researchers came to the conclusion that the first group had a comparatively simple time recovering from their diarrhea. In addition, they recovered from gastroenteritis more quickly.
