tampguy Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Anyone here take Manuka Honey for health reasons?Want to share your experience?i started to buy from nature farm and take Manuka Honey since last year when my colleague mentioned to methat the doctor asked her to take Manuka Honey when my colleague inform the doctor of her easy tirednessnowadays.i normally take UMF / active 20 and above which is good for general health especially throat or ulcers in your stomach.i will take one plastic tablespoon (no metal spoon please) of the Manuka Honey with Royal Jelly early morningwith empty stomach. do not dilute the honey in the water and take the honey directly.so far, i hardly have sore throat and feel not so tired after a hard day work :thumb: (Note: the result may differ from individuals) but the price is very expensive try it and see how it react in your body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cock brand Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Thanks.But I'm surprised that the advise to your friend actually came from a doctor! Seldom doctors give such advices.Manuka Honey is very expensive! Those with UMF 15% and above are mostly around $50 for a small bottle! You only buy from Nature Farm? Ever tried other brands?According to the Manuka website, it mentioned that its better to take the honey in the morning with some bread or toast with no liquid on an empty stomach rather than by itself. And one more time before going to bed.I have some gastric problem (GERD) and a friend suggest that I try manuka honey. I have a preference to try natural remedies instead of taking medication. Just bought a bottle with 15% UMF @ $45 and had been taking it for a week now. Maybe I should buy the 20% UMF next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bought a bottle with 15% UMF @ $45 and had been taking it for a week now. Maybe I should buy the 20% UMF next time.i have not tried any brand except the brand Northisland from nature farm as the taste is good (some brand of manuka honey tastes awful). there are some brand which is cheaper.Yes, it is a doctor from raffles medical that advises my colleague to try out the manuka honey i was only told not to use metal spoon as it will 'spoil' the honey and must be taken directly without diluting with water. i only take once in the morning as the manuka honeyis very expensive! so far, i only take UMF/active 24 and 30 all this while which cost me about sgd80 per 500gram bottle during promotion.if it is for general health, UMF 15 is enough. since you are having gastric problem, you should take higher UMF (20 and above) as mentioned by you above. the staff from nature farm also told me the same. Hope you will get better after trying out the Manuka Honey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVisitors Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Last year's harvest was bad so there are very few UMF20 in the market. Due to the shortage, you expect them to up the price.Anything above 30 will not be sold to the public for it considered a controlled item.These categories are used as sterilizing air spray in USA hospitals.If you have sore throat only just take UMF 15 will do,but not effective for stomach ailments.Take UMF 20 if you do have stomach/digestion related ailments.For better results, take 5 drops of liquid propolis 10mins after the honey.This combination is a very effective organic antibiotics, immune booster, detoxs and clears radicals in the body.It results overall a clearer complexion.If you do have heartburn or gastric flu, it is also a very effective antidote.Liquid propolis can be apply on wounds and cuts.Propolis are from the manuka plant as well Edited January 24, 2010 by TheVistors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again this by chance trial and errorPropolis - the purest form must be PROPOLIS TINTURE, the diluted ones will not state TINTURE but something like - alchohol free all you need is to drip 5-7 drops into a glass of water(Not warm or hot). then quickly drink, then pour in somemore water to dissolve the remainding ones still stick to the cup, and drink. Why remains? because it is so sticky like super glue it sticks to your cup and you will have a hard time scrubbig it off. Thus i suggest you use disposal plastic cups. Try brands like Welmary, Convita, and HnZ - which this the most expensive of the 3. They come in standard 25ml small bottle with a dripper attached to the cover. Can last about 6wks. think its about $40??Manuka - Experienced users will tell you that not all brands are honest.It may state umf 20 but it may be mixed with cheaper honey. The texture may have sugary lumps or a dark golden brown smooth texture.But make sure it either is grown on organic soil or must be of pharmacetical grade. Users will tell you usually the better or more expensive ones are the dark ones.But again I may be wrong its trial and error and that it caters to individual body system. Same - the 3 above-mentioned brands. I rather you buy 15 or 20. Just a teasoup will do. a 500gm bottle can last you 1mth. 20-30 mins before or 2hrs after food intake. Never use metal soup. There is a chemical reaction that metal oxidizes the honey. If you suffer indigestion after food consumption, you can take the honey. Morning before breakfast, at night before you sleepTheir combination - i have used it- gives me energy can i very seldom fall sick. But actually to tell you the truth- is for anti aging vainity reasons. Remember that kong fu drama series return of the condor hero(shen diao shia yu) that little dragon maiden - xiao long niu.End of the long story when she was already 46 she never seems to age because if you read the novel, she was taking honey everyday!!!Bitch Edited January 25, 2010 by TheVistors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cock brand Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Last sunday while shopping, I walked into a chinese medical chain store Hock Hua, and found them also selling manuka honey.Took a closer look, its a Deer brand from China and comes in several grades of UMF with the highest at 24% @ $78/500gm jar, not cheap!Didn't buy cos not cheap, not sure and no confidence in this brand, was also thinking "China also got manuka honey meh?"Anyone ever bought there before?

Ethan_Oleh Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 When you buy Manuka Honey, its best to get advise from the staff, by recommendation or the Brand that you had heard before. Manuka Honey made in Australia, New Zealand and Europe are the best and Highly Recommend. Best to do some reading, to get a better understanding of the products before purchases it because Manuka Honey is very expensive. You can get more information from GNC, the staff are very friendly and willing to help you should you have any doubts. I always go to GNC at Tiong Bahru Branch, Plaza Singapura. Look for the manager, she got very good product knowledge and helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVisitors Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Till today, the best manukas are still form NZ no doubt that other countries are cultivating manuka honey. The reason being is the soil.The soil of NZ were formed from the volcanic activities where is a high sulphur and phospherous content.If you ever notice, countries where there are volcanic activities, there are no snakes, because snakes detest the smell of sulphur, that if you pour sulphur powder on their sink, it burns them.

Guest Bypasser Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Active is not the same as umf. They are different rating systems for the antibacterial properties. Supposedly, umf is more reliable. However there are also researcher trying to ascertain the rating systems. As of now, umf is better that's why they are a lot more expensive than just active + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisdean Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) manuka honey (16+ Active) is very good for the health. It is very beneficial. I was having a problem in my stomach from last 2 months, My friend suggest me about this manuka honey. I have also gone to the doctor, he also recommended me manuka honey. So, i am using this from last 40 days and now I have got a lot of relief.I have never tried UMF ,so I am new to UMF.

tampguy Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) i have been taking manuka honey almost 3 years and i find myself hardly get sore throat - i am taking active 24+ or active 30+i will make an effort to wake up early every morning to take the manuka honey empty stomach for at least half an hour before i take my breakfast.remember not to use metal spoon! i use a plastic spoon (for feeding baby porridge - the spoon is quite big) to get the manuka honey and feed directly into my mouth - do not dilute the manuka honey with water. yummy yummy!!Just bought 4 bottles of Manuka Honey Active 24+(1kg) totalling $544.54 (after discount) last week from nature farm:)for active 18+, nature farm is selling buy one get one free.Chrisdean, if you have stomach problem, perhaps you should get higher active for better effect.i am sure you are aware that active 16 will still give you active 16 result even if you double the quantity you take.
