Use raw honey only! Part of an article pasted below:

McInnes concluded that honey’s potential role in restorative sleep may have implications for improving long-term health. He reviewed three possible mechanisms behind the recommendation of taking honey at bedtime:

1) honey provides enough glycogen (stored energy) for the liver over eight hours of sleep, which lessens the early morning release of cortisol and adrenalin (stress hormones);

2) honey stabilizes blood sugar levels;

3) honey contributes to the release of melatonin, the hormone required for recovery and rebuilding of body tissues during rest.

Honey’s potential role in the suppression of the release of stress hormones and the promotion of restorative hormones has major health implications for a society suffering from a habit of inadequate sleep.
