Product description:
The Manuka Tree, native to New Zealand, produces a popular caramel flavoured Manuka honey with unique and powerful antibacterial properties.
These antibacterial properties are measured by a registered standard called UMF (Unique Manuka Factor). BeesOnline UMF Manuka honey is verified and tested by an independent laboratory that grades our “active” Manuka honey and gives it a UMF number (e.g. UMF 15+). The UMF number represents a certified measure of the 'non peroxide activity' of Manuka honey i.e. the specific antibacterial strength unique manuka honey - a value of 10 is the minimum activity level recommended.
Waikato University developed the UMF grading system and conducted extensive studies over a period of more than 15 years on UMF Manuka Honey’s antibacterial properties and applications. It has been shown to be effective against a wide range of bacteria and fungi found in stomach ulcers and infections. It aids the immune system and is a natural and powerful wound healer.
Research and clinical trials by Dr. Peter Molan from Waikato University prove the efficacy of UMF Manuka Honey. UMF Manuka has been found to be effective against a wide range of bacteria including:
• helicobacter pylori - this bacteria causes most stomach ulcers
• staphylococcus aureus and escherichia coli - the most common cause of infected wounds
•streptococcus pyogenes - a major cause of throat infection
The UMF name is a registered trademark of the Active Manuka Honey Association (AMHA). The use of the UMF name is strictly under license by the AMHA to registered Honey producers and is a guarantee for consumers that the Manuka honey has been tested for its active properties.
