I mean, they want to sell their product so, why would they want you to use something cheaper, natural and easy to get instead of giving them your money?
I don't know if this is the case, but I learned this happens with other things.
Big companies sometimes want the government to manipulate the media and to change the laws according to their interest. They are not interested in education and people learning the truth, cause then they will know their product sucks.
Precisely. It's a competitive world out there and if your interests are compromised, it's not unusual for big corporations that have big money in these markets to run smear campaigns.
The good news is, there has been a lot of research - some of which has been presented and sourced on this thread.
Infact, some big-named companies have actually COPIED honey's properties, but made it less sticky. I'll find the article when i can get it.
All someone has to do is look at both sides and make their own informed decision.
