Manuka honey is known to destroy many strains of bacteria including Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, , and the infamous “Superbug” methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

Especially exciting is Manuka honey’s ability to inhibit the growth of Helicobacter pylori, the stomach bacteria known to be associated with causing stomach ulcers.

The Manuka pollen is collected by honeybees from the medicinal Manuka tree (Leptospermum scoparium). The bush only produces flowers for approximately 2 to 6 weeks out of the year and comes from the same plant family as the Tea Tree in Australia. This is one of the main reasons why the Manuka honey is highly regarded as a great product to use internally. Therefore, it is a natural and easily convenient solution to aid in the complex aspects of digestive maintenance.
