http://foods4healing.com/ People have been using honey for home treatments since Ancient times. In the 19th century, researchers discovered that all types of honey have natural antibacterial properties. But, the average honey has only a small healing efficacy when compared to the Grandaddy of all honey, Manuka. Manuka honey comes from the nectar of the Manuka flowers found in New Zealand (and southern Australian). It has unique and very powerful healing potential. The Manuka bush, known by some as tea tree, gives us oil and honey heralded for its strong antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal actions. Manuka honey provides potent broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and is used for bodily infections inside and out. It is commonly used to treat chronic wounds and serious skin infections, including MRSA. Besides its use in wound care, manuka honey has also been found effective in treating stomach ulcers, gastritis, and other digestive problems. Because it has antibiotic, anti-fungal and antiviral effects, manuka honey has also been used for sore throats, colds, dermatitis, acne, conjunctivitis, sinusitis, acid reflux and heartburn.
