Manuka Honey is derived from a medicinal plant in New Zealand and sold all over the world for medicinal purposes. The basic properties of the honey are the same as all honey – locally produced or otherwise. In talking with Ross Conrad, a renowned natural beekeeper, he suggested that any honey could provide the benefits that Manuka Honey could exhibit. Since honey has been used in medicinal applications since ancient times, I tend to believe this train of thought.

Medicinal Applications in Apitherapy:

Natural antibacterial and antibiotic properties – Manuka honey contains high levels of hydrogen peroxide. This makes the honey a very powerful antibacterial agent. It also contains methylglyoxal (MG) which is a portent antibiotic substance. Although this substance is found in most honey, it is highly concentrated in manuka honey. Therefore, this honey has major antibacterial properties.

Manuka honey contains natural antibiotic properties and can be used in the treatment of these stomach disorders. In fact, it is ideal for any bacteria related illness.
