    After a visit to a health spa, I contracted an antibiotic resistant Staph infection on my back. I tried prescription topical antibiotic ointment, plus two different oral antibiotics. Nothing worked, and the infection grew worse. I read about Manuka honey for treating Staph, so I bought some. It was hard to apply it to my back-- it stuck to my clothing and bed sheets. I tried mixing it with some skin cream and it worked better. Within a week the infection was almost gone, and within two it was gone completely.
    I've also been using it for toenail fungus, and it seems to be working so far.
    I love Manuka honey.

    I used to pass lot of gas and after using this honey for a month, my problem is gone for a year. I need to continue taking this. Does this have any side affects?

    Hi Glen, great to hear how manuka honey worked for you. As far as I know, and I have read a lot of research reports on this honey, there are no side effects. The only thing is that in some people, who have sensitive skin, this honey may cause a little stinging sensation. But that's upon topical use. Just keep on using manuka honey.

    Picked up the stomach flu while caring for my son that had it and, and he really had it. He vomited, and also had severe diarrhea. I started feeling symptoms, and I drank Kombucha, and then took a half teaspoon on Manuka Honey, and also put some in ginger tea, and my symptoms subsided. I only had diarrhea and some chills, however only for a few hours. He is still recouperating today. I'm feeling norma. I am impressed. I use Manuka honey a lot. It is a miracle.

    I used normal Manuka Honey on my Swollen falon .. it was so painful and I also ended up on Antibiotic's, I wrapped a a plaster an covered it in honey and butter, it helped so very much almost right away. Took the Antibiotic's far longer to start working ...

    Manuka honey has been the only thing in 3 years to stop my 5 year old daughters reoccurring bladder infections. She now has a teaspoon a day and has not had one since. It has changed our lives!

    Hi Angela. That's really great to hear! I am convinced of manuka honey's many medical uses. Although some uses have already been proven effective much research is still in the pipeline. Therefore it's good to hear how manuka honey worked for your daughter. Thanks for sharing!
