What is a Strep Throat?
A strep throat is a bacterial infection caused by the streptococcus bacteria. A strep throat mainly affects the area that surrounds the tonsils and often accompanies tonsillitis. Streptococcus bacteria can also cause scarlet fever, pneumonia, sinusitis, and ear infections. Laboratory studies have shown that Manuka Honey can fight streptococcus bacteria. Manuka Honey is soothing and helps relieve the sore throat with its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
