Berringa Super Manuka honeys are sourced from the native Australian Leptospermum Polygalifolium bush, with amazing antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. The honey is harvested and bottled in Australia, and is certified organic.
Super Manuka’s are graded according to the levels of the antibacterial compound, Methylglyoxal (MGO) found in the honey. The higher the MGO rating, the greater the antibacterial strength.
Independent research conducted by the Queensland Government has shown that the Berringa Super Manukas have the most powerful antibacterial properties of any honey in the world!The antibacterial strength of Super Manuka MGO 500 and over was shown to be effective in preventing the growth of antibiotic resistant staphylococcus aureus and e-coli, common bacterial infections in hospitals and nursing homes.
Fact
25% of the population carry one to two of the staph strains at any one time, and nature has provided us with a natural alternative!
Chief researcher working on the project, QAAFI scientist Dr Yasmina Sultanbawa, said the potency of the honeys meant that only a small amount was required to fight infection.
