This morning, I woke up with a minor tickle in my throat. Of course, this is the time of year where more of us get sick and I didn\u2019t want to take any chances for it to get worse. So, I immediately took action and the first thing I did was drink some lemon water because lemon has lots of benefits when it comes to soothing the symptoms of a cold. Once I drank the lemon water, I made myself a cup of tea and I included some organic raw honey in it. Honey has been used for thousands of years as a remedy for a sore throat. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that honey can be used to provide relief for a sore throat that is accompanied with a cough. The best way to use the raw honey to remedy a cold is to mix it with warm water or to have it in your tea and drink it throughout the day. I must admit that after I had the honey in my tea, my throat felt a lot better and since then, I have had 2 more cups of tea. I believe that the antibacterial properties of honey have helped to reduce the pain as well as reduce the inflammation. Because the honey has worked so well, I don\u2019t think I will need to take any additional medicines. And my hope is that tomorrow morning when I wake up, that all the symptoms will be gone, and I will be able to go to work feeling like a million bucks. <\/p>\n
