Manuka Pharm Manuka Honey MGO 40
Created by bees that forage on New Zealand’s leptospermum scoparium, or manuka bush, manuka honey is big news on the alternative health scene. With a distinctive flavour and antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, it is pretty special stuff, but is the manuka honey price point really worth it?
Produced by hives in wild, uncultivated areas, true manuka honey, such as Manuka Pharm’s multifloral MGO 40 honey, has been employed by indigenous Maori people for thousands of years.
Some of those traditional uses are now backed by scientific studies. So while it is more expensive than your average supermarket honey, manuka is equally comparable to local honey.
A delicious alternative to table sugar, manuka honey is great stirred into a cup of tea, perfect for drizzling over yoghurt and soothing when blended with hot water. But it is not just suitable to eat: many people choose to harness manuka’s properties by using it topically.
Manuka honey for skin and hair care
One of manuka honey’s most popular uses is in skin care. Because of its high sugar concentration Manuka Honey is known to keep the skin hydrated, soften the skin.
Blended with oats, yoghurt or avocado, manuka can make a highly effective face mask.
Alternatively, it can be watered down for use as a homemade cleanser.
In addition manuka also has plenty to offer your hair. A natural humectant and emollient, honey can support luxuriant, smooth and frizz-free hair and a comfortable scalp.
Manuka, the ultimate food?
An antimicrobial, manuka honey bravely stands up to microorganisms, including bacteria, parasites and fungi.
Popularly used to help soothe sore throats, manuka can also offer benefits for other parts of the body too. A source of fructose which leads to lower blood glucose rises compared to foods containing sucrose and glucose.
