MANUKA HONEY a medicine?

According to Dr. Molan, senior lecturer in biochemistry at the Waikato University,
New Zealand, manuka honey has the ability to naturally destroy staphylococcus,
streptococcus and h. pylori, the bacteria most likely responsible for stomach ulcers.
Manuka Honey may offer a cure for millions of peptic ulcer sufferers worldwide. Manuka honey is also enjoyed for it's great taste on toast!

Manuka honey and manuka tea were discovered by the native Maori's of New Zealand and have been used for centuries for all kinds of diseases. When Captain Cook visited the New Zealand Islands, he was introduced to the manuka tea, a great tasting herbal tea that Maori's have used as a tea, wound dressing, for insect stings and bites and other applications.

Manuka Oil:

Manuka oil is distilled out of the manuka leaves and is used for fungus, psoriasis,
acne, rashes, arthritis, insect stings and bits, burns, canker sores, eczema, head lice, itchy and flaky skin, muscle aches, rashes, ticks, yeast infections and other common skin problems. The website www.manukahoneyusa.com offers more information on how to apply manuka oil.

The manuka leaves are harvested December through May on New Zealand's South Island. A cutter can harvest up to 1 tone of manuka leaves a day. 150 kg of manuka leaves (331 pounds) will yield 1 liter (a little bit more than 1 quart) of precious manuka oil. To extract the oil from the manuka leaves, the leaves are steam-distilled.

Manuka Honey versus UMF10 Manuka Honey also called Active Manuka Honey:

According to Dr. Molan all honey's are antibacterial to various degrees but can vary in their potency. When honey is applied to fresh wounds, minor cuts or scrapes, any honey that has not been pasteurized will be ok to use as a dressing to prevent infection. Regular manuka honey is used very effectively for sore throats, colds, canker sores, fever blisters or simply enjoyed on toast for breakfast.

UMF10 manuka honey (umf = unique manuka factor, a natural occurring anti-
bacterial factor in manuka honey) is used by people suffering from stomach ulcers.
1 Teaspoon of UMF10 manuka honey is taken
4 x daily before meals on a small piece of bread to coat out the stomach and destroy the h. pylori, the bacteria typically associated to stomach ulcers.

UMF10 manuka honey is also applied as a wound dressing for open bed sores, leg
ulcerations or burns! UMF10 manuka honey has been applied to one group of burn
victims, while the other group received traditional medication. The UMF10 manuka
honey patient group experienced faster healing of burn wounds, less pain, infection
and scaring and there was no need for skin grafting whereas some patients of the
other group, needed skin grafting.
