My Dr. suggested the honey when I started the radiation. I purchased the Manuka but couldn't tell if I was getting the "active" or not or whatever. I had treatment #10 today and have been eating fine - except that nothing tastes good - so far. I do have a small sore in my far cheek that might have been from food or toothbrush and a small sore spot under my tongue from the fluoride tray. Have a very dry mouth but the Dr. has seemed surprised that I was still eating. If it helps, it is worth it...if not, no major loss I guess. :o)
