    • Mixture of warm water, honey and 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder cures cold and cough.
    • It is also beneficial for weight loss. Mix honey with few drops of lemon and take in the morning in an empty stomach.
    • In cold, cough and congested chest mix 2 teaspoons of honey with equal quantity of ginger juice and should be consumed frequently.
    • Consuming 1 tsp of honey daily helps us to lead a healthy long life.
    • Honey is a good and gentle antiseptic. It is very helpful in soft, silky facial skins.
    • It is a good moisturizer.
    • It is a good detoxifying gel. It makes one’s skin radiant by removing environmental toxins accumulated in the skin.
