Honey
Honey is sweet and moderate in nature. Honey is beneficial in cases of hypertension, peptic ulcer, habitual constipation, bronchitis, neurasthenia and general weakness after sever illness. People with diabetes and babies under 1 years old should avoid honey. Honey in cold water will help constipation, however honey in hot water is helpful for diarrhoea. Honey in cooking will also help diarrhoea. Dark honey is more helpful for blood deficiency as it has a warming action.
