Manuka Honey the natural healer!

Well hello there!

It's a good job that I don't have to talk on here because at the moment I'm poorly sick and think I may be getting my yearly tonsillitis, very sore tonsils and not able to swallow! Boohoo.

Well while I'm nursing my tonsils back to health I've been eating more Manuka Honey in a bid to kick out faster. I'm not a fan of honey at all but force myself to have it every day just because of all the benefits that it has! Manuka honey is produced in New Zealand and Australia from the nectar where the bee have been feeding of the manuka tree. The honey is a natural Antibacterial and has great healing properties, it can help a number of illness, from stomach ulcers to MRSA. The honey is also applied to wounds/ulcers to help the healing process. Not only does it help in illness it can also help in maintaining your overall health and well-being while increasing your energy levels. 


You can buy the Manuka Honey almost anywhere now that it has become a popular thing and its stocked in most supermarkets and health shops. It comes in different UMF strengths from 5+ to 24+, the higher the number the better it is for you because it has a higher antibacterial component. However the higher the UMF the price also becomes higher but prices differ in all shops. I usually buy the honey when Halland and Barrets has their offers on such as buy one and get one for a penny! Recently though I stumbled across the little beauties in Aldi, 10+ for around £3 (that's right £3) in most shops it will be around the £20 mark! When choosing the honey you need to pick up one that says that its 'Active Manuka' otherwise your just paying a high price for normal honey!


I love the honey (not the taste) just because it is so naturally good for you! I've put it on spots when nothing else works and it has got rid them very quickly. I also genually believe that my tonsillitus would be a lot worse if I hadn't been having the honey everyday. Even though I'm nearly sick every time I have the honey it's worth the torture :)

Get yourself to Aldi and pick up your Manuka Honey :)

Love J xoxo
