WHAT IS MANUKA HONEY? Manuka Honey, like regular honey, has antibacterial effects that result from its ability to produce hydrogen peroxide. But being a premium bioactive honey, it must also contain additional non-peroxide factors that boost its ability to fight bacteria. At Berringa, we look for the key naturally occurring chemical markers that are found in Manuka Honey (MGO and DHA) to determine its purity. Whilst we use MGO to measure its level of antibacterial activity. MGO is found only in Leptospermum honey and is a clear indicator of a Berringa Manuka Honey?s antibacterial strength. The MGO you choose really should be dependent on your intended use and how strong you want the antibacterial activity to be (we have detailed some of the uses further up this page, but we list more applications further down). Berringa Manuka honey can also stop the growth of bacteria by drawing away moisture in a wound and dehydrating the bacteria. This is because it has a high sugar and low moisture content. It?s also acidic, with a pH between 3.2 and 4.5 (the pH of your blood is around 7.35-7.45). Persistent wounds tend to have a highly alkaline environment that isn?t ideal for healing, so adding some Manuka can help to create an environment that promotes healing. Put all of these factors together and you?ve got yourself a super honey - and below is a list of all the applications we know of (well the sensible ones!). Scientific research has been completed over the years to find out how effective honey is for medicinal and health use. It?s been shown that Manuka and other bioactive honey may kill some types of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, help to heal wounds and reduce inflammation, among other benefits. Berringa Australian Manuka Honey is some of the highest quality and most antibacterial honey in the world. Some of the great health benefits of our honey include:
A prebiotic effect that helps to maintain a healthy digestive system and may assist in promoting beneficial bacteria.
