Issue with honey as an antibiotic, antihistamine, and prophylactic control for hayfever/allergies - it has to be local honey, and do not use it with kids under 3yo. A wy to kick up honey's useful properties is to mix 1 tbsp honey with 3 tbsp vinegar and add hot water to make 8oz of the mixture - the acid and tannins in the vinegar react with whatever bee juice and pollen to increase the efficacy as a preventative. Don't ask me the pharmacology behind it - it's jungle medicine, but it works.
