A short while ago, someone asked whether any advice existed in the Koran
about eating honey.

   In section #16 (out of 114 sections), entitled "The Bee," in my copy of
the Koran, I found only two applicable paragraphs (verses?), as follows:

***********

   Your Lord inspired the bee, saying:  "Make your homes in the mountains,
in the trees, and in the hives which men shall build for you.  Feed on
every kind of fruit, and follow the trodden paths of your Lord."

   From its belly comes forth a syrup of different hues, a cure for men.
Surely in this there is a sign for those who would take thought.
