Manuka Honey


There are 2 types of Manuka Honey:
  1. Ordinary Manuka Honey with only the hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property, sometimes measured by NPA+(non peroxide active).
  2. UMF Manuka Honey with both the natural hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property plus its own natural UMF antibacterial property, giving it increased antibacterial potency. A specialty honey identified by the name UMF. It is the preferred honey for wound dressing and other special therapeutic uses. 
UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) was first discovered by Dr Peter Molan of Waikato University's Honey Research Unit. UMF Manuka Honey contains a more powerful and more stable antibacterial property, called UMF, in addition to the hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property.   Studies are showing that the enhanced antibacterial qualities of UMF Manuka Honey give the honey special healing qualities.
