A member asked:
Is it safe for 2 years and 1 month (25 m) old toddler to eat honey?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it is safe: Yes, it is safe for children over 12 months old to eat raw honey. Raw honey can have botulism spores in it, and children less than a year old are more likely to get sick from that. So that is why it is only safe for children over 12 months old.
