ACTIVE MANUKA HONEY 25+

What’s so special about Active Manuka Honey?
Honey in general has been used as a medicine since ancient times. Its antibacterial activity is found due to its osmotic effect, acidity, and also mainly due to the hydrogen peroxide (a known antiseptic) produced enzymically in the honey. However, regular honey loses most of its healing properties when it comes in contact with fluids, or when exposed to heat or light.
Unlike regular honey, Active Manuka Honey is not affected by heat or light. It is also important to know that hydrogen peroxide, which is a major antibacterial factor in other types of honeys, will be destroyed by enzymes in our body.
Interestingly, non-hydrogen peroxide antibacterial components in Active Manuka Honey are not affected by such enzymes.
Active Manuka Honey is highly effective against antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria, e.g. MRSA and VRE. As Active Manuka Honey does not need moisture and oxygen to be effective, it works greatly under wound dressings or in wound cavities or in the gut.
Furthermore, the non-peroxide antibacterial activity of Active Manuka Honey diffuses deeper into skin tissues than does the hydrogen peroxide from other types of honey, making it possible to get to infected areas.
