The cough efficacy of honey

Human beings have been collecting honey for 8,000 years and have 4,000 years of history as a drug. In the Middle Ages, honey was used to heal, cure ulcers, disinfect, gargle, and so on. In modern times, it was used to treat flu, cure cataracts, treat glaucoma, and stop coughing. These are similar to traditional medical methods.

In recent years, many experiments have been carried out on the medicinal efficacy of honey. In the laboratory, honey has antibacterial effects and can inhibit E. coli, Salmonella and some resistant bacteria, but it has not been confirmed in clinical trials. From the honey variety, it seems that the honey with deep color has good antibacterial effect.

In 2007, researchers at the Pennsylvania State University Medical School conducted a randomized, double-blind trial of honey's antitussive effect. Prior to this, they found that there was no statistically significant difference in the use of the cough suppressant, right salbutamol, compared with no treatment, and that there were side effects. This trial used a honey-based common cough suppressant, right salcamine, plus a group of untreated controls. 105 children from 2 to 18 years of age (mean age: 5.22 years) were randomly divided into the above three groups to compare the effects of reducing cough frequency and severity and improving sleep after 24 hours. Honey was found to be most effective, especially in reducing cough frequency and improvement. Children and parents sleep.

For the effect of honey, the researchers explained that the antioxidant effect of honey is first, and the second is not the effect of honey, but the natural sugar can cause saliva secretion, mucus secretion of the respiratory tract and throat analgesic effect, thereby relieving cough, especially Reduce dry cough.

The results of this experiment caused a lot of repercussions. Most of the repercussions are supported, but there are also objections because from a statistical point of view, the difference shown by this test is not very significant, especially when comparing honey and dexamethasone. There was no statistical difference, and the trial took the National Honey Board's fund.

In 2010, Iranian researchers confirmed the antitussive effect of honey. The researchers randomly divided 139 children aged 2 to 5 into 4 groups. Among them, three groups were given honey, dexamethasone and diphenhydramine, and the other group was not treated. After 24 hours, honey was found to reduce cough frequency and improve cough severity. The degree and improvement of sleep among children and parents were significantly better than in other groups.

In 2012, Israeli researchers conducted a randomized, double-blind trial in which 270 children aged 1 to 5 years were randomly divided into 4 groups to give 3 different types of honey and control liquids similar in color and taste to honey. After 24 hours of honey, 3 honeys were found to be significantly better at reducing cough frequency, improving cough severity, and improving sleep among children and parents.

So far, the results of several existing clinical trials have supported the antitussive effect of honey, and there have been no negative results. Therefore, most authorities recognize the antitussive effect of honey.

The reason why a baby under one year old cannot eat honey is because there may be spores of botulinum in honey, and the digestive system of infants under 1 year of age is not well developed and can cause death. This situation is very rare, but due to the serious consequences, we must eliminate eating honey for children under the age of 1 and do not eat any food containing honey.

The coughing effect of honey is definitely better than not taking medicine. Compared with honey and cough medicines, it seems that honey has a better effect. Due to the severe side effects of cough medicines, children under the age of 12 are often reported to have died of cough medicines. Therefore, besides taking children under the age of one year, honey is a very safe cough medicine for children of other ages.

In the above studies, it was found that cough symptoms in the non-medicated group were also improved, suggesting that common diseases such as cough caused by a cold are self-healing symptoms and are the body's self-treatment mechanism, if it does not affect sleep or is not very uncomfortable In terms of degree, there is no need to take medicine.

From the perspective of possible mechanism, it seems that the mitigation effect of natural sugar is more tenable. Because many cough medicines have natural sugar, they can also stop coughing, or their cough suppressing effect is mainly due to their sweet components.

However, most of the honey sold on the market is not real honey, or fakes and adulterants made from saccharin, etc., or honey produced purely from white sugar-fed bees. There is no detectable pollen in it. 76% of the honey sold in the United States did not detect pollen. In addition, honey from places such as China and India also contains antibiotics and heavy metals. Here, if you can't guarantee the quality of your honey, use it when you can't sleep.
