One of the main reasons is to do with Iron.
Iron is required in red blood cells to effectively carry oxygen. It is important for the infant's growth.
Term infants have only 4 months iron stores in their body (they got this from across the placenta from mum). Unforunately milk in general has very little iron inside it. Infants can absorb 50% of the iron in breast milk, but only absorbs 10% of the iron in unmodified cows milk. This is why, it is important that cows milk is modified.
At 1 year old, most infants have started the weening process and are onto solid foods, where iron is found eg. meats,fish, dark green vegitables.

It should not be giving to infants before 1 year of age because there has been some concern expressed about plan-based estrogen they contain and their effect on infant grow
Honey should NOT be given to children under one year of age. Honey may contain Clostridium botulinum spores that can cause infant infant botulism.

an adult is over 18 old, an infant is under 2 years
Well they shouldnt be allowed but sometimes its cuz they are with a adult or they look older for their age

Dont feed an infant under one year old honey. One year and older is perfectly safe!
