Pure Manuka Honey Products Information

Manuka honey stands apart from ordinary honey through its unique antibacterial properties and therapeutic benefits. Sourced exclusively from Australia and New Zealand, where the Manuka bush (Leptospermum scoparium) grows wild, this remarkable honey has gained worldwide recognition for its medicinal qualities.

Active Manuka Honey MGO & UMF Ratings

Understanding Manuka honey ratings is crucial for selecting the right product for your needs.

The UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) grading system ranges from UMF5+ to UMF20+, with higher numbers indicating stronger antibacterial properties.

For everyday wellness support, UMF10+ provides excellent benefits, while UMF16+ and above offers maximum therapeutic properties.

The MGO (Methylglyoxal) rating directly measures the concentration of the honey's key active compound, with MGO400+ corresponding roughly to UMF12+.

At Mr Vitamins, we stock a comprehensive range of certified Manuka honey products across these grades, ensuring you can find the perfect strength for your specific needs.

Manuka Honey Health Benefits for Healing & Wellness

The therapeutic properties of Manuka honey extend far beyond those of regular honey, making it a powerful natural remedy for various health concerns. Its unique antibacterial properties make it particularly effective for wound healing, where it creates a moist environment while protecting against infection.

For digestive health, Manuka honey helps balance gut bacteria and may reduce inflammation in digestive disorders.

When used for skin health, it supports collagen production and helps maintain moisture levels, making it valuable in both dietary and topical applications. 
Manuka honey offers numerous evidence-backed benefits, such as:

  • Supporting wound healing and skin health
  • Soothes sore throats and coughs
  • Promotes digestive wellness
  • Provides immune system support
  • Offers antibacterial properties

Research has shown that regular consumption can strengthen the immune system, while its natural enzymes support overall digestive wellness.

Pure Manuka Honey vs Regular Honey: Key Differences

Manuka honey's superiority over regular honey lies in its unique composition and proven therapeutic benefits. While all honey contains some antibacterial properties due to the presence of hydrogen peroxide, Manuka honey contains additional compounds that provide non-peroxide activity, primarily methylglyoxal (MGO). This makes its antibacterial effects more stable and long-lasting.

The Manuka bush, found only in Australia and New Zealand, produces nectar with unique properties that result in higher concentrations of beneficial compounds, including:

  • Methylglyoxal (MGO) - the key antibacterial compound
  • Leptosperin - a natural chemical marker proving authenticity
  • DHA (Dihydroxyacetone) - which converts to MGO during honey maturation
  • Various beneficial enzymes and minerals

These compounds work synergistically to create what scientists call the "Manuka Factor," which sets it apart from ordinary honey varieties.

Medicinal Manuka Honey Benefits for Colds & Immunity

When it comes to supporting immune health and fighting colds, Manuka honey offers specific advantages that make it a valuable addition to your wellness routine. Its natural antimicrobial properties help combat respiratory infections, while its thick, viscous nature provides excellent throat-coating benefits. Research has shown that Manuka honey can effectively reduce cough frequency and severity, particularly when combined with traditional remedies.

For optimal immune support, consider taking 1-2 teaspoons daily, either straight or mixed with warm water and lemon. During cold and flu season, the anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce throat irritation and support faster recovery. Many of our customers find benefits from Manuka honey products enhanced with propolis, which adds extra immune-supporting compounds to the natural benefits of the honey.
