A Sweet Surprise

"Honey can be so much more than a sweetener. New
research suggests that it can also promote oral health
by preventing the growth of biofilms, accumulations of
harmful bacteria that can lead to cavities, bad breath,
and gum disease. In one study, consuming manuka
honey, a bold-flavored variety produced in Australia
and New Zealand, significantly reduced plaque and
gingivitis. Try Comvita Manuka Honey Lozenges in
Lemon & Honey ($7.45; comvita,com)."
