A unique type of honey that is found only in New Zealand from the local manuka bush (Leptospermum scoparium). It has been billed as the new superfood, with a deservedly high profile due to the antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties it is considered to has. MGO 400+ Manuka honey is tested to the highest standards to ensure you get the purest, authentic 100% organic New Zealand Manuka honey:
• Raw
• Glyphosate free
• Without impurities and processing - 100% pure monofloral manuka honey
• Tested in an independent laboratory for quality, purity and authenticity of each individual batch
• With a golden caramel color, a fluffy, creamy texture and a delicate bittersweet finish (the higher the MGO, the richer the caramel hue and the more distinct the bitter note)
Authentic manuka honey is unique in that it contains significantly higher levels of the organic component methylglyoxal (MGO) than other types of honey, which is why it is up to 100 times stronger in antibacterial action. In addition to MGO, honey producers also measured the concentration of two other compounds - dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and leptosperine, a naturally occurring compound found only in the nectar of manuka flowers.
There are only two legally established standards for evaluating and labeling authentic manuka honey:
• Honey must be labeled with the actual test results for MGO (in mg/kg), or
• Honey must be labeled with a UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) rating.
Benefits:
• Helps cleanse the digestive system of bacteria.
• Improves skin health.
• Suitable for treating wounds and burns.
• Strengthens the immune system.
• Helps to improve the overall health of the body.
