Manuka Honey Available in the Usa

Manuka Honey's international notoriety stems from its ability to treat a wide spectrum of health conditions both internally and topically on the skin.  When taken orally, Manuka Honey has been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, stomach ulcers, gum disease, etc.  Manuka Honey has also been effective in treating a wide range of skin conditions such as eczema, acne, infected wounds, burns, ringworm, etc.

Manuka Honey is considered to be antimicrobial, which means it is effective in destroying microorganisms that are responsible for causing bacterial, viral and fungal infections.  Since most health conditions are caused by these unwanted microbes, Manuka Honey's ability to destroy them has attracted the attention of doctors and other medical professionals around the world.  Manuka Honey is even efficacious enough to eradicate MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.  Since antibiotics have proven to be relatively ineffective in treating Staph infections, the use of Manuka Honey is now being considered a viable treatment alternative.  This is being recognized as a major breakthrough in the medical industry.

In addition to its medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey is also drawing attention to itself as a cosmetic ingredient.  Manuka Honey has a hydrating and rejuvenating effect on the skin.  It also has the ability to increases skin elasticity and collagen production.  As a result, Manuka Honey has become recognized as an excellent anti-wrinkle solution.  It has other impressive skin care applications in terms of a cleansing agent for clearing acne and other unsightly blemishes.  Its antibacterial properties eliminate infections that cause red marks, boils and pimples.

It's not the bees in New Zealand that are so special, rather than the flowers where they collect the nectar to make the honey.  The Manuka bush grows beautiful white and pink flowers that contain this unique nectar with unusually potent healing properties.  Honeybees use this nectar to produce Manuka Honey.  Bee farmers in New Zealand put their hives within close proximity to Manuka trees so that the bees only use its nectar to manufacture their honey.

Unfortunately, Manuka Honey is somewhat hard to come by.  Shipping costs from New Zealand to the U.S. can be more than the honey itself.  However, a New York-based company called Honeymark has developed a line of skin care products containing Manuka Honey as a main ingredient.  Their creams and lotions also takes the sticky mess out of applying Manuka Honey directly to the skin.

"In many cases, active Manuka Honey has proven to be more effective than traditional forms of medicine," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International.  "At a time when consumers are becoming more confident in the use of natural and cosmeceutical products, Manuka Honey offers the peace of mind of having no negative side effects.  Even medical doctors who are usually more in favor of pharmaceuticals have become impress with the amazing healing benefits of Manuka Honey."
