Description
Hospital grade, high antibacterial properties
100% raw Australian active Manuka honey. Harvested from the East Coast of Australia, every batch is University tested and awarded a strength rating.
Besides its unique great taste, what makes Manuka honey so special is its chemistry makeup and non-peroxide activity. This naturally occurring chemical process boosts the antibacterial and antiseptic properties. Manuka honey’s unique value is recognised internationally, and a long list of health benefits are associated with its use.
Manuka honey is mono-floral, meaning it is made from one species of flower. It is produced by bees that have fed on the Leptospermum tree, which flowers fewer than six weeks a year and grows wild in Australia and New Zealand. While Manuka honey has only recently come under the spotlight, its use dates back centuries as a traditional Indigenous medicine.
Australian Manuka Honey is rated using the MGO system, which is an abbreviation for Methylglyoxal. Every batch of Manuka honey must be lab tested to determine its activity and how potent its active enzymes are. The higher the MGO number, the higher the antibacterial activity and the more beneficial the honey will be for your health.
If you open a jar of Nature’s Gold raw Manuka Honey and there is foam on the top – this is due to air bubbles trapped in the honey during the aeration process and packaging. When the packaged honey rests, the air bubbles work their way up to the top of the container, creating the foam. There is nothing wrong with the honey or the foam.
Directions:
Take 1 tsp a day. Do not eat or drink for half an hour, either side of taking the honey.
Can also be mixed in with herbal tea or your favorite warm beverage.
For a topical application simply apply directly to a cleaned wound and cover with a bandage to protect the wound. Change the dressing daily.
Always seek medical advice first, if applying to an open wound or directly onto your skin.
Do not give to children under 12 months.
