Need A Way To Beat Those Winter Ills and Chills?

I started taking a teaspoon of active Organic Manuka Honey every morning at the start of winter and I have noticed two significant changes. Firstly I haven't had a strep or sore, dry throat since and my sugar cravings have dropped dramatically!

Once it got colder, and the organic lemons on the tree were ready to use, I started taking the honey in a warm lemon drink - wow, what a treat that is! First thing in the morning I fill the kettle with purified water and almost boil it, add a squeeze of half an organic lemon into a mug, add a regular teaspoon of active Organic Manuka Honey and top it up with nearly boiled water. Yum! A great way to start the day - and it's good for me!

I haven't had a cold or anything like it since I started making a daily lemon honey drink, and it recently occurred to me that I haven't had sugar craving fueled snack attacks lately, which has got to be a good thing. I must be getting enough natural sugars from the honey.

Busy Little Organic Manuka Honey Bee

Where Does Organic Manuka Honey Come From?

organic manuka honey beeIn the back blocks of remote parts of New Zealand is where you will find the busy little organic manuka honey making bees. In the unspoiled landscapes and countryside of this geographically isolated island nation, far from anywhere - including far from lots of pests and diseases that are prevalent in other places.

Did you know that for it to be called Manuka Honey, the apiarists (honey experts) test it to ensure is is 'monoflora' or one-flower honey? If the bees have also been gathering pollen from wild flowers, as an example, the tests will show this and this honey will not become active manuka honey because it is not pure enough to be called that.

The remote locations where organic manuka honey comes from in New Zealand are unique. The manuka tree grows wild and usually on farm or forestry blocks of land that are not near lands that are easily turned into crop fields. This makes it easy for organic certification as the bee's collection area is also part of these remote locations.

Organic Manuka Honey - Antibacterial Properties

More About The Antibacterial Properties of Organic Manuka Honey

One of the many benefits of Organic Manuka Honey are that is is antibacterial and has anti-fungal properties. The naturally occurring antiseptic properties of honey are used to treat wounds to help prevent infection on the skin. Organic Manuka Honey is also used to treat a range of skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis and ringworm.

If you happen to be one of the unlucky ones to contract a MRSA from a hospital visit, you will be pleased to know that active honey also has been shown to be effective in treating antibiotic resistant bacteria too.

Or perhaps Helicobacter pylori, stomach uclers or dyspepsia are your main concerns. H. pylori has been studied and the conclusion drawn indicates that it is possible that the antibacterial affect of the honey may be useful against this condition. It is an in-expensive, risk-free and tasty treatment option for those that suffer with this stomach pain and discomfort. It can be eaten on toast, spooned on to cereal or oatmeal, as well as taken in hot drinks. It can also be enjoyed straight off the spoon.
