Honey has been used historically as a wound treatment and some studies suggest it helps speed up healing in both animal experiments and human trials.
This review analyzed data from 26 trials involving 3,011 participants to compare honey with other wound dressings for acute and chronic wounds like burns, ulcers, and infections.
Findings are based on wound healing outcomes, with trials covering various wound types, though the quality of evidence varies and further research may be needed.
