Honey May Ease Nighttime Coughing in Kids, Tel Aviv University Study
A spoonful of honey before bed may help little kids with a cough - and their parents - sleep through the night, a new study suggests. Parents also reported that after giving honey to kids, their coughing was less frequent and less severe. Coughs are one of the most common reasons kids go to the doctor, said Dr. Ian Paul, a pediatrician from Pennsylvania State University in Hershey.
