7. Coughs and Colds

Honey is more effective as a cough suppressant than some of the cough syrups in the market today. Cinnamon is also known for its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, so a spoonful of honey and cinnamon could help fight off a cold.

But, it’s also important to note that most colds are caused by viruses, and not bacteria, which means you can’t rely on honey and cinnamon alone.
