#asktheexpert is it safe to give honey to a 6 month old baby

A. not safe.! Don't give your baby any honey before she's a year old, even if it's to treat a cough. This is because honey can, very occasionally, contain a spore of a bacterium called clostridium botulinum. This can cause a rare form of food poisoning (botulism) in babies.

A. When your child is at least 1 year old, he can have honey. By that point his digestive system will be mature enough to pass the bacteria in the honey without it causing illness.
