The Claim
A systematic review indicates that honey is associated with improvements in forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume, peak expiratory flow, and respiratory symptoms during exacerbations of chronic diseases.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Honey might help people breathe better and feel less sick when their long-term breathing problems get worse, according to a big review of studies.
