For many years honey has been prized for its healing properties and sweet taste. 

All honey types contain hydrogen peroxide, which is a natural antibiotic and antiseptic.  But the amount of hydrogen peroxide can vary widely from one honey to another. Dr Molan has found that Active Manuka honey is very effective against bacteria that cause the following;

• Infected wounds - most commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
• Peptic ulcers – Helicobacter pylori
• Sore throats – Streptococcus pyrogens

“The honey being sold as ‘Active Manuka honey’ is the only honey available that is being tested for its antibacterial activity and selected for sale based on its level of activity”. (Dr Peter Molan M.B.E)

The Nelson Honey and Marketing range includes Active Manuka 5+, 12+ and 15+ with laboratory tested levels of activity.
