A great and well known application of honey is for sore throats. For most people who get sick, they'll often make tea, add lemon, and honey. The honey acts to disinfect bacteria that has managed to climb into the throat. It won't, however, get rid of a bad cough. If an infection enters the lungs swallowing honey is useless. You'll need to see a doctor about getting antibiotics.
Swallowing lemon means you're swallowing citric acid, which can also help to boost vitamin C and the immune system.


For really tenacious coughs and flus, adding Cayenne pepper to your tea, alongside the honey and lemon can really be a great boon to your bodies immune system. In the old days of Europe, Cayenne pepper tea used to be given to people on their death beds. It would pep them up enough to where they would seem fine, and allowed them to be administered their final rights and sort anything out in their final minutes. Cayenne pepper in tea in a person that isn't dying helps to keep it that way. Powdered Cayenne pepper works just fine in case you're wondering whether to go with whole pepper or dried.
