I am really impressed with what I have read about the health benefits of Manuka Honey and wondered if anyone else gave it to their children as a preventative therapy?
I have just started giving my son a teaspoon a day off a teaspoon. But it feels really wrong giving him something so sweet and I'm worried I could damage his teeth. I tried to put some in his milk but he refuses it, I assume as it tastes tainted. I know I could add it to his porridge and I'm sure he would readily take it, however I've been advised against adding it to hot things as it kills the enzymes - plus they recommend taking it an hour before food.
Any advise or do I just sound like a tree hugger?
Thanks
