IS honey good or bad for you! It contains a lot of sugar but its natural?

Don't get caught up in the whole "natural" or un-natural thing. Honey has a lot of sugar period. Just because something is natural does not make it better than anything else. Companies often use the terms natural to make things sound better, and people don't know any better, so just be cautious.

However, honey is a wonderful antiseptic, good for colds and stuff.

Good for sore throats. But yes, high in sugar.

keep in mind that sugar is "natural" too. Comes from sugarcane. Sure there is a lot done to it to transform it from what comes from the field to what you put in your coffee, but the same goes with honey.

Honey has more carbs and calories per teaspoon than sugar, but it is also quite a bit sweeter, so you use less.
