Manuka Natural Specialty Products

New Zealand Manuka honey and essential oils have been developed as potent natural remedies with deep-rooted histories in traditional medicine, contributing significantly to the realm of natural health. These substances, have been harnessed for their therapeutic properties, offering a holistic approach to well-being. 

Manuka honey, produced in New Zealand by bees that pollinate the native Manuka bush (Leptospermum scoparium), holds a special place in the world of natural health. Its health giving properties were first recognised following the introduction of the European honeybee in 1839 by Mary Bumby the sister of an early missionary. However, it wasn't until the late 19th century that scientists began to explore and document the unique medicinal properties of Manuka honey. The discovery of its potent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities, attributed to the presence of methylglyoxal (MGO), led to a surge in its popularity as a natural health remedy. 

Manuka honey is renowned for its ability to accelerate wound healing, soothe sore throats, and boost the immune system. It has also gained recognition for its effectiveness in treating conditions such as gastritis, acid reflux, and digestive issues. The honey's diverse range of therapeutic applications has positioned it as a staple in natural health practices worldwide. 

Manuka essential oils on the other hand were first recognised by the Māori people of New Zealand over 900 years ago using crushed manuka plant extracts as a remedy for various ailments. Today the essential oil is extracted from plants by steam distillation. The use of honey and essential oils for medicinal, spiritual, and cosmetic purposes dates back to ancient civilizations like Egypt, China, and India.  

Increasing concern amongst the medical profession of microbial resistance to man-made antibiotics has led to the research and development of natural products. 

World-wide scientific studies have confirmed the antimicrobial properties of both Manuka UMF honey and essential oil which are able to combat bacterial, fungal, and viral infections, reducing inflammation and enhancing the healing process. 

At manukanatural.com, we have harnessed these unique properties to provide a diverse range of treatments from skincare and wound care to honey for internal consumption, health practices rooted in centuries of traditional wisdom.
