The number on the front of the pot represents the mg per kg of MGO (Methylglyoxal) and the related strength of Antimicrobial Activity, which is known to kill certain types of bacteria. The greater the number, the stronger the Antimicrobial Activity.
MGO in Manuka honey is naturally made in the hive from DHA which is present in the nectar of the Manuka Bush. Within the hive DHA undergoes the Maillard reaction to naturally form MGO.
100% Genuine New Zealand Manuka Honey. Independently tested to show it meets the New Zealand Government's definition of Mānuka honey.
Pure New Zealand Manuka Honey has a unique taste that changes as the MGO rating increases. It isn't as sweet as most mass produced honey varieties so to help you decide on the taste and antimicrobial properties (MGO rating) that's perfect for you we've created this handy taste chart.
Honey should not be given to infants under 12 months old.
Please note that Manuka Doctor Honey is not for resale.
Manuka Doctor honey pots are BPA free.
Manuka Doctor Manuka Honey purchased directly from us will have an expiry date with a minimum of 6 months remaining from the date of purchase, unless advertised otherwise.
In hot weather we recommend that our Manuka Doctor Honey is refrigerated to maintain a thick, golden consistency. If your honey does become runny then simply chill for a few hours.
