External Uses
|
Used as a
wound dressing,
Active Manuka Honey can naturally cure and heal wound
infections such as
MRSA (the super
bug), as well as help healing
skin ulcers,
sores ( e.g. bed
sore/Decubitus
Ulcer) and all kinds of
burns.

antibacterial properties can heal even chronic

Why does a wound dressing with
Active Manuka Honey help healing wounds?
The power of this natural wound dressing is based on the
healing properties of honey and a unique antibacterial factor, called
UMF, which can only be found in Active
Manuka Honey.

Honey
in the First Aid Closet?
In New
Zealand hospitals and doctors trust Active Manuka Honey and
successfully use it as wound dressing, especially for open wounds.
Some companies are even producing honey-impregnated bandages for healing
wounds. In many households in New Zealand you will find honey in the
first aid closet.
This antibacterial honey is easy to use and easily available,
not only because of its cost effectiveness. Especially when there
is danger of wound infection, as in the case of an open wound, the honey
can be applied immediately to reduce inflammation and prevent a
bacterial infection before the patient has a chance to see a doctor.
That makes honey as a wound dressing the perfect first-aid treatment.
Applied externally, this it can even be used by
diabetics for open wounds and foot ulcers.

How can you explain the antibacterial activity?
Since ancient
times honey has been used as a natural medicine in many cultures.
Its antibacterial properties however have only been discovered
a century ago.
Honey in fact inhibits a broad spectrum of bacteria. Some reports
even show an anti-fungal activity. Some honeys will work better
than others though. The Honey Research Unit at the Waikato University in
New Zealand is constantly investigating honey as a therapeutic agent.
But how exactly can you explain this antibacterial activity?
