All honey has some level of the antibacterial chemical hydrogen peroxide, which is produced by enzymes in the honey. These enzymes are easily destroyed by exposure to heat and light and also by contact with body fluids. It is now understood that some rare honeys have an antibacterial action that is separate to the peroxide effect, resulting in a much more persistent and stable antibacterial action. Such valuable honeys are resistant to losing their antibacterial activity when used in wound treatment and even have strong activity when heavily diluted by body fluids in a wound dressing. Furthermore, such honeys are now known to have a synergistic antibacterial effect with the hydrogen peroxide activity, producing a very powerful weapon against bacterial conditions
UMF rated Active Manuka Honey is produced by honey bees from the flowers of the manuka bush (leptospermum scoparium). As a result of extensive screening it is now known that honey produced from the Australian leptospermum polygalifolium also has a useful antibacterial action. The manuka bush grows uncultivated throughout New Zealand and its Australian counterpart can be found in some parts of Australia - also uncultivated. Active Manuka Honey and its Australian cousin is the only honey available for purchase which is tested and verified for its antibacterial activity.
