20、d in hot drinks, and it s a pleasant alternative to sugar. However, there s a lot more to honey than meets the eye, and one day it may replace many of the items in our medicine cabinets. Doctors throughout history have appreciated the medicinal properties of honey. In Ancient Egypt it was used to tr
21、eat cuts and bums. The Ancient Romans used it to help people with sleeping disorders and the Ancient Greek used it to cure skin diseases, ulcers and sores. More recently, German doctors mixed it with cod liver oil to treat battle wounds during WWI, and opera singers have been known to use it to boos
22、t their energy and soothe their throats. Today, as homeopathic medicine is becoming more popular, honey has been rediscovered as a natural remedy and is being used successfully to treat many ailments such as anaemia, arthritis, colds and stomach ulcers. It is particularly effective in the treatment
23、of burns and wounds. Honey aerosol sprays have even been used to treat chronic bronchitis.

Secondly, it creates a moist environment when spread onto a wound which speeds up the natural healing process. Scientists have al
27、so found that certain types of honey act as antibiotics. In fact, honey is actually more effective than some of our current antibiotics because it works on certain microbes and bacteria that have developed a resistance to current antibiotic treatment. However, researchers have also found some types
28、of honey are more beneficial than others. For example, honey containing nectar from the Australian jelly bush and the New Zealand tea tree plant have been found to possess more medicinal properties than other varieties. Medical researchers are still working on identifying the role that honey could p
29、lay in future medical practices, but they all agree that we should not be using the honey in our kitchen cupboards to treat ourselves. This is because many commercial brands of honey actually contain bacteria which could contaminate an open wound. They also agree, unfortunately, that simply eating h
