While all types of honey have some medicinal value, Manuka Honey has been known to have higher antibacterial activity than other types honey. Manuka Honey is the only honey available that is tested for its antibacterial activity. It contains an additional antibacterial component found only in honey produced from the Leptospermum plant (indigenous to New Zealand) which has been called the Unique Manuka Factor or UMF. The enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide in honey is destroyed when honey is exposed to heat and light. However, Manuka Honey is stable so there is no concern about it losing its healing properties in storage. Manuka Honey provides a more potent antibacterial action, diffusing into the depth of infected tissues, more so than the hydrogen peroxide from other types of honey.
Manuka Honey has natural antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiseptic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal properties, making it one of the most valuable substances for treating a variety of different symptoms. Manuka Honey has been known to treat health conditions such as Eczema, Psoriasis, arthritis, wounds, burns, insect bites, infections, ringworm, athlete's foot, etc. Research also shows that Manuka Honey has no known side effects and reduces malodor and eliminates scaring. Additionally, Manuka Honey is now being used to treat antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA. This is why Honeymark uses active Manuka Honey as the main ingredient in all of their products.
Honeymark is a manufacturer of skin care products containing active Manuka Honey as a healing agent. Like all types of honey, Manuka Honey is sticky and not particularly desirable when directly applied to the skin.
