Interesting article that shows some USDA National Honey Board funded
studies have proven that honey is often better than cough syrup:
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/12/071203164750.htm
> The study found that a small dose of buckwheat honey given before bedtime provided better relief of nighttime cough and sleep difficulty in children than no treatment or dextromethorphan (DM), a cough suppressant found in many over-the-counter cold medications
This would be a good article to print out and keep with you when selling
your honey! :)
