Mānuka Honey MGO 1200+ (Monofloral)

Mānuka honey is a rich, creamy and often dark honey produced by bees from the nectar of flowers of the Mānuka tree. It contains unique antioxidants, prebiotics and an antibacterial compound called Methylglyoxal (MGO).

Methylglyoxal (MGO) is the unique naturally occurring antibacterial compound in Mānuka honey.

Higher MGO values indicate higher antibacterial activity, it also indicates higher levels of other active, beneficial compounds in the Mānuka honey. In simple terms, the higher the MGO, the higher the potency of Mānuka honey.

Mānuka honey contains a wide range of nutrients to help maintain daily wellness and vitality, and support optimal digestive and immune health. You can enjoy this superfood directly from the spoon, or pairedd with your favorite food or beverage for healthy indulgence.

All of our Mānuka Honey is from New Zealand. We source our product directly from beekeepers in East Cape, Northland and Central North Island. These areas are renowned for producing the most bioactive Mānuka nectar in the world.

Our raw Mānuka honey is not pasteurised.

We are big supporters of local honey and all of the benefits that it can bring, however, Mānuka honey is very different, and unique to New Zealand. It has extremely high levels of bioactive compounds (including MGO, Leptosperin and oligosaccharides).

These have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and prebiotic properties not found in any other honeys. Many of our customers choose to have both local honey and Mānuka honey in their households, as they serve different purposes.

Our Mānuka honey is raw to maintain it’s healing and health properties and comes as a creamed, liquid form.

There are many different ways to enjoy Mānuka Honey, including eating the honey straight from the spoon, adding it to drinks such as teas and smoothies, applying topically, or adding it to your favorite food.

The higher the MGO level the more potent the honey. For skin treatments and cosmetic applications we recommend our more potent and bioactive Mānuka honey MGO 830+ or MGO 1000+
