遇上喉嚨痛、咳嗽、傷風感冒，有人會睇醫生服食抗生素，亦有人會以蜜糖作食療紓緩症狀，最近就有研究證實蜂蜜療法原來有根據！英國牛津大學研究拍出，治療上呼吸道感染症狀時，蜂蜜比起抗生素或非處方藥物的治療效果更佳。
英國牛津大學研究團隊早前進行回顧研究，檢視14項臨床試驗，當中涉及1761名各年齡層的研究對象，再比對蜂蜜和多種常見藥物，包括抗組胺藥、祛痰藥、止咳藥及止痛藥等，用於治療和紓緩上呼吸道感染症狀的效果。
結果發現，蜂蜜在紓緩上呼吸道症狀最為有效，緩解咳嗽頻率和嚴重性較為顯著，亦不會像其他藥物般出現副作用。另外更有2項研究指出，食用蜂蜜後可助上呼吸道感染人士提早1至2天康復。
研究團隊指，食用蜂蜜的療法是坊間常見的偏方療法，成本低且危險性低，加上比常規治療更有效，因此建議醫生使用蜂蜜替代抗生素，來治療上呼吸道感染。
但團隊亦提醒，蜂蜜為複合物質，並不是成分一致的藥物，因此不同蜂蜜或有不同影響，並非所有蜂蜜都可出現治療作用，而且需要進行更多研究確認療效，未滿1歲的兒童亦不可服用蜂蜜。
