Arthritis can be lessened if the person drinks one cup of hot water with 2 spoonfuls of honey and one small teaspoon if cinnamon powder once in the morning and once at night.

If you are suffering from a cold this season, try taking 1 tablespoon of lukewarm honey with 1/4 tablespoon cinnamon powder for 3 days. This can help coughs, colds and clears the sinuses.

Two tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of cinnamon powder mixed in 16 ounces of tea water was found to reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood by 10% within two hours when given to cholesterol patients.
