Benefits of Manuka Honey

Manuka honey is produced by honeybees that feed on the Manuka tree in New Zealand as well as Australia.

Honey is well known to have a positive effect on wound healing as well as a variety of other skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and acne.

What is unique about Manuka honey specifically is its high levels of methylglyoxal. This is quantified by a scale known as Unique Manuka Factor (UMF)

The higher the UMF number = higher concentration of methylglyoxal

Methylglyoxal is the active anti-bacterial compound that makes manuka honey unique.

Other benefits of Manuka honey include:

• Powerful humectant- draws moisture into skin

• Anti-inflammatory

• Antioxidant and anti-aging
