Remedies for nasal polyps

Remedies for nasal polyps: Professor Akim Bouterra's advice, complemented by what the research says (honey), the precautions to know, and our resources to go further.

Propolis will be ideal for nasal problems. It can be used in capsules, or combined with honey (immunity honey), in bulk, or as a nasal spray. The propolis course should last three months, combined with taking an adaptogen like reishi mushroom for three months as well.

In addition, eucalyptus, oregano, and chamomile inhalations will be beneficial.

Of course, black seed, as is often the case, will be very useful, particularly in immunity honey or in capsules.

Finally, we recommend taking zinc, a good antioxidant, which will prove beneficial for ENT problems, at a rate of two capsules every morning.

What the science says: honey

What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for illustration — these studies address material causes; healing belongs to Allah.

Honey

"There is a healing for people in honey": research confirms several of its uses. A Cochrane review concludes that honey relieves acute cough in children better than no treatment and at least as well as some syrups (Cochrane, 2018) (Eur J Pediatr, 2023). On the skin, honey dressings speed up healing and reduce wound infections (Nutrients, 2024), including burns (N Z Med J, 2009). Precaution: never give honey before age one (risk of infant botulism); choose raw, unheated honey from a reliable source.
