Manuka honey is honey collected from bees who frequent the Manuka flower. Manuka honey has at least seventy percent of its pollen collected from Manuka flowers. Manuka flowers are native to New Zealand and parts of Australia. Manuka honey is considered to have antiseptic qualities due to a quality known as non-peroxide activity. The pollen from the Manuka flower results in the non-peroxide activity of honey. Manuka honey also has antifungal properties. These properties are quantified using a special scale known as the Unique Manuka Factor. A higher Unique Manuka Factor results in better antifungal properties. This honey can be used internally as a nutrient, or topically as an antiseptic. The unique qualities of honey make it suitable for these dual purposes. It also tastes great. Manuka honey can be ordered online without fear that it will go bad. Honey is a food type that never spoils. Even if it gets hard and crusty, it can simply be warmed up to return it to its liquid state.
