Antibacterial Properties of Manuka Honey
Manuka Honey has an antibacterial activity, due primarily to hydrogen peroxide formed in a "slow-release" manner by the enzyme glucose oxidase present. Some honeys are no more antibacterial than sugar, while others can be diluted more than 100-fold and still halt the growth of bacteria. The difference in potency of antibacterial activity found among the different honeys is more than 100-fold. Manuka Honey is the only honey available that is tested for its antibacterial activity. It contains an additional antibacterial component found only in honey produced from Leptospermum plants: what has been called the "Unique Manuka Factor" (UMF). There is evidence that the two antibacterial components may have a synergistic action.

Maven thinks...
I cannot praise this honey enough. Its great as a natural energy booster. It really helps my acid reflux. Its great at detering colds/sore throats. Its 100% natural and raw. I use manuka honey in my tea/coffee, and yields the same benefits ( the honey is unaffected by weather, heat or cold, although its recommended to be taken at room temperature ). Its great to use this honey the same way as regular honey, difference is, this stuff is a bit of a miracle in a jar. On cereal, toast, desserts.. you name it. This honey, like wine, gets better with age. I urge you to think again about one of nature's most available natural products to be used in your daily life. The reason some big corporation hasnt jumped on this and made a killing is because anone can be a beekeeper, so in their eyes, it is not a profitable product.
Maven Score : 9.5/10
