Is it good or bad to drink honey water during your period?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Consuming honey water during menstruation can alleviate menstrual cramps, as traditional Chinese medicine believes that sweet foods can relieve pain. Additionally, the magnesium-rich honey helps regulate psychological and nervous system balance, aiding in relaxation and reducing stress. However, remember not to use hot water to dilute honey, as it will destroy its active ingredients. It is best to use warm water instead.
