The Benefits of Manuka honey

Genuine Manuka honey has been scientifically proven to contain antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. What makes New Zealand Manuka honey special, is it has over 200 compounds that are not found in other types of honey.


The medicinal trilogy of leptosperin, dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and methylglyoxal (MGO) are signature compounds that are measured in the UMF™ rating to our Manuka honey. The higher the UMF™ rating, the higher the proportion of unique signature compounds found in that honey, the better it is for you.

Today Manuka honey is globally recognized and used in a variation of products – food, beauty, cleansers, and health care products such as wound care. Our customers tell us they use Manuka honey to:
