dc.description.abstractThe home remedy of taking honey along with a citrus juice of lemon, lime or calamansi to soothe sore throat has long been practiced in many cultures across the world since ancient times. This paper aims to systematically review the antibacterial effect of honey and citrus juice on Streptococcus pyogenes by means of a systematic search in EBSCOhost, Medline, Scopus and ISI Web of Science databases for reports of studies investigating the antibacterial effects of honey and citrus fruit juice on S. pyogenes. A total of 415 publications were initially identified out of which, 20 were finally chosen and reviewed by looking at the tittles, abstracts and fullpaper usingpre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria in relation to honey (n=16) and citrus (n=4). The majority of the studies showed that both honey and citrus have significant antimicrobial effect on S. pyogenes. There are still not many available data though on the combined effect of honey and citrus on the bacterium. This knowledge gap offers an opportunity to investigate those effects with the purpose of supporting traditional practice with scientific evidences.en_US
