Honey has been used as a remedy for ailments since the time of our beloved Prophet (s). Both the holy Qur'an and Hadith refer to honey as a healer of disease.

there issues from within their bodies a drink of varying colors, wherein is healing for mankind.
Verily in this is a Sign for those who give thought'.
(Translation of Quran 16:68-69)
Rasulullah (s) said: 'Honey is a remedy for every illness and the
Qur'an is a remedy for all illness of the mind, therefore I recommend
to you both remedies, the Qur'an and honey.' (Bukhari)
