This is old news, it is common knowledge amongst muslims that honey is a cure for a lot of things including cough. As ALLAH says in the Holy Quran "يخرج من بطونها شراب مختلف ألوانه فيه شفاء للناس".

I agree with you about the benefits of honey being common knowledge among muslims, but i disagree with you about it being old news. The amount of knowledge given to muslims and the amount that they apply in their daily lives are two totally different things.... PS. sorry for the late post.
