It has been discovered that honey contains natural healing properties that are capable of treating a wide range of health conditions.
The idea of using honey as a medicine should not be viewed as being far-fetched. After all, honey is derived from the nectar of flowers and many plants are well known for their medicinal qualities. Honeybees enhance the medicinal qualities of the nectar by adding enzymes to it when producing honey.
Honey is considered to be antimicrobial and capable of destroying many of the infectious microorganisms that cause disease and health complications. Whether it's a bacteria, virus, fungus or parasite, honey inhibits these pesty little microbes from causing harm. Honey has been known to be effective in destroying the following pathogens:
* Bacillus anthracis
* Corynebacterium diphtheriae
* Escherichia coli
* Haemophilus influenzae
* Listeria monocytogenes
* Mycobactyerium tuberulosis
* Pasteurella multocida
* Pseudomonas aeruginosa
* Salmonella
* Serratia marcescens
* Shigella
* Staphylococcus aureus
* Streptococcus species
* Vibrio cholerae
Honey’s antibacterial properties vary predicated on the floral source, more specifically, the flowers that the bees gather nectar from. Some types of honey are more effective as a medicine than others. For example, Manuka Honey from New Zealand is exceptionally effective in treating many conditions from stomach ulcers to MRSA Staph infections. Manuka Honey’s healing properties are due to osmolarity, acidity, hydrogen peroxide and unique plant derived components. As a result, Manuka Honey is being viewed as an excellent alternative to traditional forms of medicine, particularly in cases where conventional medicine has proven to be ineffective.
“The therapeutic potential of honey is grossly underestimated and underutilized,” says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International, which is a manufacturer of health care products containing active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. “It’s health benefits, both internally and topically on the skin, are being recognized worldwide and will most likely replace many chemical-based ingredients in health care products in the future.”

Honeymark Takes the Sticky Mess out of Manuka Honey
With scientific reports indicating that Manuka Honey is effective in treating MRSA and a variety of other health conditions, one manufacturer of skin care products delivers a more user-friendly application.
With all the various types of skin care products available on the market, Honeymark International of Long Island, NY has developed a niche by utilizing a special type of honey indigenous to New Zealand. Bio-active Manuka Honey has been proven to have extraordinary natural healing properties, capable of treating conditions such as infected wounds, dermatitis, acne, ringworm, etc. There are very compelling studies that have been recently conducted that show Manuka Honey's antibacterial properties are so powerful that even antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA have not been able to develop a resistance to it. This breaking news has drawn worldwide attention within the medical communities as medical professionals search for alternative solutions to treat Staph infections and other hard-to-heal wounds.
Even though Manuka Honey has been found to efficiently eradicate both bacterial and fungal infections, it's sticky texture has always made it less desirable to use topically on the skin. Like all types of honey, Manuka Honey is a moist, sugary substance that most people would never consider using on their skin. However, active Manuka Honey has healing properties not found in standard types of honey, making it much more suitable for medical use. Honeymark imports Manuka Honey from New Zealand and blends it into their skin care products, allowing for a much more desirable texture. In addition, Honeymark products also contain other ingredients that are effective in treating the various health conditions that each product is designed to be used for.
For example, Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion contains Benzalkonium Chloride which is and FDA approved disinfectant that is very effective in clearing infection. Their Anti-Itch Cream contains hydrocortisone which can be found in many eczema and psoriasis products. Tolnaftate is an ingredient in their Anti-Fungal Solution that kills fungus which combined with Manuka Honey's antimicrobial properties can eliminate conditions such as ringworm, jock itch, athlete's foot and nail fungus. Honeymark's Pain Relief Cream contains ingredients such as Camphor, Menthol, Emu oil and almond oil that are used to provide relief to arthritis sufferers and individuals experiencing muscle and joint pain.
Manuka Honey could never be comfortably spread on the skin the way a cream or a lotion can. Especially in the U.S., where many people still regard honey as merely a food item and not for medical use, Honeymark has provided consumers with a convenient way to utilize this amazing natural resource. Honeymark is also in the process of releasing an Antiseptic Spray as well as a Hand Sanitizing Gel, both containing active Manuka Honey. These products will help in preventing the spread of MRSA without relying on alcohol as the only means of killing germs.
"We have seen a significant increase in the publics awareness of Manuka Honey over the past 6-8 months," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Mostly because consumers now have the ability to educate themselves on their own health concerns thanks to the Internet. Manuka Honey is being regularly used in the Asian and European markets. It works too well not to penetrate the U.S. market as a viable treatment option to antibiotics and more traditional forms of medicine."

Honey and Skin Care
The use of honey in skin care products is becoming increasingly more popular as reports of its effectiveness are published.
There may be no better way to bring a smooth glow to your skin than by using skin care products containing honey. Honey's ability to absorb and retain moisture make it an ideal ingredient in many cosmetics as it helps keep skin hydrated and fresh. In fact, history shows that ancient beauties regularly applied a mixture of honey and milk to the face to keep their skin looking young, radiant and smooth.
Honey's natural antioxidant and antimicrobial properties help to protect the skin from the damage of the sun's rays while supporting the skin's ability to rejuvenate and refresh depleted skin. One advantage to using honey as a natural skin care ingredient is for the treatment of acne. Honey absorbs impurities from the pores in the skin, making it an ideal cleansing agent. There is also an increasing number of honey products being introduced to the market for hair care, skin care, hand lotions, facial masks, moisturizers, wound care, etc.
One company that is capitalizing on the use of honey in skin care products is Honeymark International, which utilizes a special kind of honey found only in the New Zealand region. Honeymark uses Manuka Honey in its skin care products, which is naturally produced by bees who gather nectar from the Manuka tree, indigenous to the pollution-free environment of New Zealand. Manuka Honey has special plant-derived components that make its effectiveness in skin care many times greater than standard types of honey. In addition to hydrogen peroxide, which is found in all types of honey, Manuka Honey's unique components are Methylglyoxal and UMF. Manuka Honey also has a variety of nutrients and vitamins that contribute to its effectiveness in skin care.
Now that research and clinical studies have revealed that bacteria are the cause of infection and other skin conditions, Manuka Honey has become accepted as an extremely valuable resource. Manuka Honey has very powerful antibacterial and antimicrobial properties that create an environment that is impossible for bacteria to survive. Even the resilient MRSA bacterium has not been able to develop a resistance to Manuka Honey. This has become of increasing interest among medical professionals as Staph infections plague our hospitals and communities.
"Honeymark takes the sticky mess out of using honey topically on the skin," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "We import Manuka Honey from New Zealand and blend it into our medicated creams and lotions for a much more desirable and user-friendly application." Honeymark currently has Manuka Honey products that are effective in treating wounds, burns, eczema, psoriasis, ringworm, etc. Honeymark also plans on increasing their line of Manuka honey-based products later this year to include an acne cream, anti-aging serum, hand sanitizing gel, antiseptic spray, shampoo, conditioner, liquid hand soap and a moisturizer. Buonanotte has also indicated that the company is working on the development of facial masks and bandages that have Manuka Honey infused into a coconut fiber material that can be applied directly to the skin, allowing for more efficient diffusion into the depth of skin tissue.

Manuka Honey Skin Care
Studies have found that one particular type of honey contains extraordinary healing properties, making it an ideal ingredient in various skin care and wound care products.
There's a new area of medical research and it focuses on an edible item that has been around for a very long time. This all-natural substance that is being studied for medical use is honey, but not necessarily the kind of honey you would buy in a supermarket. This type of healing honey is known as Manuka Honey, and experts are saying that it can relief a host of ailments.In laboratories all around the world, researchers are working relentlessly on new medical treatments. As it turns out one of the most promising is Manuka Honey.
Medicinal uses for honey go back 5000 years to the ancient Egyptians and Greeks. However, honey is generating new interest these days as the science of its healing powers catches up to its folk legend. Honeymark International of Long Island, NY is having success with its line of Manuka Honey-based health care products. Honeymark products are made with Manuka Honey, which is a particularly potent type of honey that comes from New Zealand region and is known for its healing ability. Manuka Honey can do what an increasing number of modern antibiotics cannot, which is stop drug-resistant super-bugs such as MRSA and VRE.
"Manuka Honey accelerates the healing process in wounds and burns," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "It does this by sucking the moisture out of the cells of the bacteria and then they can't function." Wound care dressings containing Manuka Honey, such as the ones manufactured by Honeymark, are particularly effective in hard-to-heal wounds that are unresponsive to other forms of medication.
Manuka Honey contains vitamins and other useful components that contribute to its effectiveness, such as copper, iodine, zinc, enzymes, hydrogen peroxide, etc. The healing power of honey doesn't end there. Manuka Honey has been effective in treating symptoms such as eczema, arthritis, ringworm, athlete's foot, acne, etc.
Buonanotte emphasizes that the honey sold in supermarkets does not have the healing properties that are found in Manuka Honey. This is because standard honey is filtered and boiled to prolong the shelf life, not to mention that commercial honey just doesn't have the same antibacterial components that are found in Manuka Honey. If your worried about the sticky mess of using honey topically on the skin, Honeymark makes medicated creams and lotions that contain Active Manuka Honey.
