Benefits Overview
Why Manuka Honey is Different
Manuka honey stands out due to its naturally occurring antibacterial properties. These are largely attributed to methylglyoxal (MGO), a compound that contributes to its unique activity.
Unlike regular honey, Manuka honey is tested and graded using recognised systems such as UMF. These ratings help ensure authenticity and indicate strength.
To understand how these ratings work, see UMF vs MGO Explained.
