What is the best MRSA treatment?

MRSA skin infections can fortunately be cured without the use of antibiotics.

For minor MRSA wound infections, a treatment with antibiotic ointments is prescribed.

Patients with a severe MRSA wound infection might need to take vancomycin intravenously. Vancomycin is at the moment the last chemical antibiotic that still seems to be able to fight MRSA and cure the infection.

However, scientists are now afraid that even a treatment with vancomycin will fail in the future. There is clearly a need for alternative mrsa treatments, such as “natural antibiotics”.  

If a patient’s life is seriously threatened a treatment with two different antibiotics will be needed.

Treating MRSA with a natural medication?

Nature itself developed powerful chemical defense mechanisms against all kinds of infections over millions of years. Chemical defense agents can be found in plants like the tea tree bush of New Zealand.

Active Manuka Honey is the honey that is collected from the tea tree bush in New Zealand. When the bees collect their honey from the Manuka flower of the tea tree bush they preserve a precious component: the Unique Manuka Factor - often referred to as UMF.

The antibacterial UMF is able to completely eliminate staph aureus and mrsa bacteria in wounds. Therefore Active Manuka Honey is considered a natural antibiotic: it has the strength of an antibiotic without the side effects of antibiotics.

Due to unpleasant side effects, antibiotics can only be used for a short time. Active Manuka Honey however has a long term treatment option. It can be used safely and without side effects until the infection is cleared.

In New Zealand doctors and hospitals successfully use Active Manuka Honey for their patients’ wounds, burns and wound infections. 

One of the biggest health problems today is the growing antibiotic resistance of many bacteria. The reasons may differ. Generally there are said to be three major reasons.

New Medicine for MRSA?

Active Manuka Honey is often praised as the new medicine for mrsa. Active Manuka Honey is not that new though: It has been extensively researched at the Waikato University of New Zealand for over 20 years.

The UMF Activity in Manuka Honey has been described by Molan and Russell (1998) and Allen (1991). The substance has so far not been identified. Westen (1999) found that the activity was not caused by the phenolics (including flavonoids) found in Manuka Honey.

Honey has been shown in laboratory studies to have antibacterial activity against the 7 most common species of bacteria found in wounds.
