Sometimes honey can contain a harmful bacteria that produces toxins that can cause muscle weakness,paralysis and breathing problems in babies
Don't give honey to children under one year of age

This usually affects babies less than 6 months, and is caused by Clostridium

Why does it affect babies under one year?
This is because in adults and older children, there are natural defenses in our intestines that prevent these spores from germinating into bacteria
Babies don't have this
To prevent this, do not feed honey to babies under one year.
