Most people think that Manuka honey only comes from New Zealand, but it’s actually widely produced in Australia as well. In fact, Australia’s warmer climate provides the best conditions for growing Manuka plants (and we have 83 species) that produce honey with high amounts of methylglyoxal (MGO) from their unique nectar and pollen, as acknowledged by world experts in honey production.

Therefore, Australian Manuka is given the title of SUPER MANUKA.

Scientific research has been completed over the years to find out how effective honey is for medicinal and health use. It’s been shown that Super Manuka and other bioactive honeys may kill some types of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, help to heal wounds, and reduce inflammation, among other benefits.

Berringa Australian Super Manuka Honey is some of the highest quality and most antibacterial honey in the world. Some of the great health benefits of our honey include:

• A prebiotic effect that helps to maintain a healthy digestive system and may assist in promoting beneficial bacteria.
• Stimulating and boosting the immune system and reducing inflammation.
• Antioxidants that may assist in protecting the body from harmful free radicals.
• Providing relief for coughs, colds and sore throats, mild upper respiratory infections and indigestion.
• Providing symptomatic relief of minor wounds, burns, eczema, psoriasis on the skin and cold sores.
• Managing symptoms of gingivitis, including reducing plaque levels and bleeding.
• Managing eye and ear infections.
• Managing antibiotic-resistant Golden Staph infections.

Even though honey has been used for the treatment of ailments since ancient times, the science behind Super Manuka honey has only been explored in depth relatively recently.

The use of honey is now gaining increasing acceptance in modern medicine, particularly due to its antibacterial activity and wound healing properties.

Research has found Super Manuka honey to be effective in treating postoperative infections in newborns, other infected wounds, skin grafts and burns that had not responded to conventional antibiotics and antiseptics.

A study of people with chronic, non-healing leg ulcers showed that Super Manuka honey, when used once per week for four weeks, helped to reduce the size of the wound by more than half, eliminated odour from the wound, and alleviated pain.

Other research has found that Super Manuka honey is effective in reducing healing time and managing infection in people with diabetic foot ulcers. And it has shown to be more effective than hydrogel dressings (a water-based gel dressing) in eradicating an antibiotic-resistant strain of Golden Staph (Staphylococcus aureus) in people with venous leg ulcers.

Bioactive honeys, such as Berringa Super Manuka, can help to fight bacterial infection, and have been reported to inhibit growth in around 60 species of bacteria.

It is effective against Stenotrophomonas maltophilia­, the bacteria which often causes hospital infections in breathing tubes and urinary catheters.

Golden Staph is also known to cause rhinosinusitis, or inflammation of the lining of the sinuses, along with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Super Manuka honey is effective against these pathogens in this context as well.
