Natural Health with Megan Sheppard: Will lemon and honey drinks help clear my laryngitis?

I am suffering from laryngitis. I am using lemon and honey drinks — my go-to remedy for sore throats. Will this help to clear the laryngitis, or do I need something stronger?

The lemon and honey drinks will certainly help soothe the inflammation and inhibit infection. Raw honey (unfiltered and not heat treated) has long been used for almost every ailment.

Honey has been used both internally and externally to help treat chronic indigestion, insomnia, constipation, ulcers, sore throats, coughs, colds, and ’flu, abscesses, burns, eczema, athlete’s foot, surgical wounds, cold sores… the list goes on.
