SEPTEMBER MARKS National Honey Month and we have teamed up with Holland & Barrett to find out the benefits of Manuka Honey…
Wound Healing
Improving the healing process and decreasing pain, Manuka Honey is well-known for its wound healing properties. By offering antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it has been shown that Manuka Honey may offer healing capabilities in tissue regeneration, acute wounds and superficial partial thickness burns.
Digestive Health
If you suffer from digestive disorders, abdominal discomfort or bloating, Manuka Honey can help improve gut health. Containing a pre-biotic important for nurturing the gut’s ‘good’ bacteria, Manuka Honey can help the digestive system rebalance itself naturally. It can also help with ulcers and acid reflux.
Sore Throat
If you’re prone to a sore throat then a hot Manuka Honey and lemon drink is a must. Studies have shown that this natural remedy is more effective on a cough then over-the-counter medicines. Simply take a cup of warm water, squeeze in half a lemon, a dash of ginger and two teaspoons of honey and ta-da!
