Honey has been proven to have antiviral and antibacterial qualities. It is more readily absorbed by the body than refined sugar, therefore better for you. It has more calories per teaspoon than sugar, but its good qualities outwiegh that. Its very good for your skin if you use it as a face mask, especially mixed with a little milk and almond powder.
The best cough syrup is to pack a jar with garlic cloves, fill with honey and let it sit a few weeks. A tablespoon of this is great for sore throats, cold and flu, as well as a salve for burns and injuries.

Does your friend eat as well? Too much sugar intake is bad for you. Take honey in moderation mixed with other healthy foods.

Drinking sugar (which is what honey is) to lose weight? I don't think so. It may have healing properties but it is not a diet aid.
