Manuka Honey Soap by Honeymark


Manufacturer of Natural Manuka products delivers a luxurious bar soap containing coconut oil, palm oil and Manuka Honey from New Zealand.


Manuka Honey is produced in New Zealand by bees that utilize the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka tree. It is believed that this unique floral nectar contains healing properties not found in other types of honey. These amazing healing qualities have made Manuka Honey quite a commodity.

Studies have shown that Manuka Honey does wonder for the skin. It has the ability to destroy bacteria, heal damaged skin, regenerate new skin growth, eliminate impurities, etc. Manuka Honey is also considered to be a humectant which means it has the ability to draw moisture from the air and lock it into skin cells. This makes Manuka Honey a natural moisturizing agent.

Manuka Honey has been used to treat a variety of skin ailments including acne, fungal infections (including ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch, etc.), dermatitis (including eczema, psoriasis, etc.), burns, dry skin, bacterial infections (including MRSA, Staph, VRE, etc.) as well as other skin conditions. Using soap that contains Manuka Honey can not only help to treat any of these conditions but it can also help to prevent them as well.

"Many of our customs who shower with our Manuka Honey Soap say that they don't even bother to use a moisturizer afterwards," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "The Manuka Honey in this soap acts as a deep moisturizer that eliminates any dry spots that may be present on the surface of the skin."

This product is made from all-natural ingredients. For more information or to purchase Honeymark's Manuka Honey Soap, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com.

Honeymark Goes All-Natural


The manufacturer of Manuka honey products has taken all synthetic and chemical-based ingredients in their products and replaced them with plant-derived, natural ingredients.


In an effort to keep up with the recent demands of their customers, Honeymark has undergone a major reformulation process, giving their entire line of Manuka Honey products a facelift. Nowadays, consumers are very label savvy and are much more educated about what ingredients are safer and more effective. Even though many of the synthetic or chemical ingredients that have been used in skin care and personal care products over the last few decades are perfectly safe according to the FDA, the consumer preference is all-natural.

The development of skin care products utilizing natural ingredients is no longer a think of the future. It is here in the present and these products are in big demand. Along with many other manufacturers that are jumping on the "clean and green" bandwagon, Honeymark has recognize the importance of producing products that are made from plant-derived materials. Most consumers that are aware of the natural healing properties of Manuka Honey are interested natural remedies, rather than their pharmaceutical equivalents. With the horrifying list of negative side effects that accompany pharmaceutical advertisements, it's no wonder that the natural products movement has hit the retail market so hard.

Manuka Honey is becoming world renowned for its ability to heal, treat and cure a wide variety of health conditions, both internally and externally. Manuka Honey is already recognized as the only natural treatment alternative to antibiotic-resistant infections such as MRSA and VRE. Now some medical professionals have reason to believe that its antiviral properties may even be effective against the Swine Flu (H1N1 virus).

"There is no natural substance on the face of the planet that has more impressive healing qualities than Manuka Honey," says Dr. Vincent Milano, Executive Director of the TriState Medical Center in New York. "Over-the-counter cold medication doesn't work. I always tell my patients to take Manuka Honey instead. I've even seen MRSA Staph infections healed within days after applying Manuka Honey topically to the affected area. In most cases, Manuka Honey outperforms prescription medication for certain health conditions."

Honeymark products include a First Aid Antiseptic Lotion, Acne Cream, Anti-Wrinkle Serum, Hand Sanitizing Gel, Anti-Itch Cream, Anti-Fungal Solution and a variety of other skin care products, all of which contain active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Even though Manuka Honey is indigenous to New Zealand, Honeymark products are manufactured in the U.S. Honeymark is one of the largest importers of Manuka Honey in the U.S. and plans on releasing other Manuka Honey products by next year. Future products include Manuka Honey Lozenges and Manuka Honey Capsules.

"Reformulating our products to include all natural ingredients was a long, over due project that I'm glad we have finally achieved," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "These new botanical ingredients perfectly compliment the natural healing properties of Manuka Honey. We are happy to introduce this amazing natural resource to U.S. consumers and other markets all over the world."

Himalayan Bath Salt with Manuka Honey


Honeymark launches a Bath Salt with genuine Himalayan salt crystals and Manuka Honey from New Zealand, both of which are well known for their rejuvenating properties.

There is a significant difference between table salt and Himalayan salt. Ordinary table salt predominantly consists of sodium chloride. When salt is dried, most of the trace elements that the body needs is eliminated, leaving a mineral that isn't particularly beneficial. However, Himalayan salt is a pure and totally natural mineral salt containing up to 84 minerals and trace elements, high in negative ions. It is mined by hand and stone ground, eliminating impurities.

Millions of years ago, the sun dried up the primal sea and left the mineral-rich crystals we know today as Himalayan salt. Located deep within the Himalayan Mountains, this crystal salt is the purest salt on the planet. Covered in snow year round, the pristine environment of the Himalayas protects the salt from the pollutants that often permeate salt from the sea.

Himalayan salt is the purest, all-natural, unrefined, cleanest and most complete salt available. Using Himalayan bath salt offers many positive health benefits. The trace elements that are present exist in a form that is easily absorbed by the skin. Himalayan salt does not contain any type of environmental toxins or harmful chemicals.

In addition to its purity, Himalayan Bath Salt contains all-natural replenishing power stored within its crystals. Its bio-photon content is stored energy that releases when mixed with water, rejuvenating both mind and body. Soaking in the bath salt draws out toxins, soothes muscles and eases tension. Taking a salt bath will also make your skin cleaner and smoother. In addition, salt baths have a healing effect on conditions such as athlete's foot, nail fungus, wounds, skin irritations, insect bites, sun burn and blisters. It also serves as a therapy to joint diseases such as rheumatism.

Most of us are conscious about our physical appearance, especially our skin. Unlike taking an ordinary bath which can actually remove moisture from our skin, a Himalayan Salt Bath moisturizes by allowing water to be absorbed into the outer layer of the skin. Himalayan bath salt has also been known to alleviate severe cases of dry skin disorders such as psoriasis and eczema.

Himalayan bath salt, contains 84 essential minerals, more than any other bath salt, including magnesium, potassium, bromide and calcium which are readily absorbed into the skin during a 15-30 minute bath.

Bath Salt Uses:

  • Relieves stress.
  • Helps the nervous system.
  • Moisturizes skin.
  • Relieves water retention.
  • Promote cellular regeneration.
  • Restores a healthy calcium balance.
  • Stimulates circulation.
  • Strengthens bones and nails.
  • Promotes healthier skin.
  • Reduces muscle and joint inflammation.
  • Relaxes muscles and relieves pain and soreness.
  • Detoxifies the skin and helps to heal dry, scaling, irritated skin.
  • Heals bacterial and fungal infections.
  • Treats psoriasis, eczema and other forms of dermatitis.
  • Regulates water content throughout the body.
  • Promotes a healthy pH balance in skin cells.
  • Promotes blood sugar health and helps to reduce the signs of aging.
  • Assists in the generation of hydroelectric energy.
  • Promotes sinus health.
  • Relieves muscle cramps.

When you take a salt bath, the salt minerals penetrate your skin in the form of ions. This stimulation will cause natural cell growth in your living cell layers. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and your body's energy flow will be activated. While anyone can benefit from a brine bath, it is particularly soothing for those with the following conditions:

  • Various skin diseases
  • Rheumatism and joint diseases
  • A post-operative care regimen
  • Gynecological diseases
  • Bacterial or fungal infections
  • Insect bites, blisters or wounds
  • Skin irritations from poison oak, poison ivy or poison sumac
  • Insomnia

Dead Sea Mud Mask with Manuka Honey


Honeymark launches a Mud Mask combining genuine mud from the Dead Sea and a premium honey from New Zealand, known as Manuka Honey, both of which are well known for their amazing ability to heal and maintain healthy skin.

It is easy to wonder if Dead Sea mud is nothing more than an expensive type of regular, ordinary mud. However, it's important to know that it is most definitely not the same. In fact, regular mud is dirty, unsanitary and contains high levels of toxins, such as lead and bacteria, which can have a damaging effect on the skin. On the other hand, Dead Sea mud is very useful for cleansing and purifying the skin.

Dead Sea mud is actually one of the most beneficial types of mud in the world. In fact, medical research has shown that mud from the Dead Sea can be used to cure a variety of different skin conditions. For example, Dead Sea mud is very effective for the treatment of acne, psoriasis, eczema, arthritis pain, fibromyalgia, muscle stiffness, joint inflammation, dry skin, etc. Even individuals who don't suffer from these conditions enjoy the benefits of applying Dead Sea Mud to their skin because it has a high density of both salts and minerals, which are ideal for keeping skin feeling healthy and youthful.

The Dead Sea is a very salty body of water, with a saline level between 28% and 35%. Even the world's saltiest oceans are only 3% to 6%. The Dead Sea's high mineral salt content is partly due to the fact that it is completely landlocked, so any water that flows into it from the Jordan River is trapped until it evaporates. Evaporation happens quickly because that particular region is extremely hot. When the water evaporates, the salty minerals are left behind, causing the remaining water to become concentrated with salt.

As the Dead Sea water evaporates, the salt and minerals get absorbed into the mud at the bottom of the sea. This mud is then extracted and packaged, with all the impurities removed. The minerals which are present in the mud are all natural minerals which your skin needs. By using Dead Sea mud, or a mud mask, you are basically feeding your skin the essential minerals that it needs to maintain proper moisture levels.

Medical research has now confirmed that the minerals and salts from the Dead Sea contain healing properties that are effective in treating various diseases and skin allergies. In addition, it is common for the skin to show improvement in its outer appearance and elasticity after coming in contact with Dead Sea minerals.

Better blood circulation, metabolism and a more relaxed nervous system are also common results of using Dead Sea mud. It has also been known to heal wounds, stimulate hair roots, cure dermatitis, eliminate dandruff, heal bone and cartilage inflammation, relieve stress and fatigue, etc.

Dead Sea mud is one of the healthiest things you can use on your skin. Studies show that the minerals found in the Dead Sea provide the body and skin with extensive benefits, including but not limited to the following:

  • Promotion and healing of skin tissue.
  • Maintaining proper moisture levels.
  • Prevents and cures allergies.
  • Provides the skin with anti-allergenic protection.
  • Protects against airborne pollutants.
  • Helps to counteract internal toxins.
  • Aids relaxation and promotes a soothing effect.
  • Improves blood circulation and natural skin generation.
  • Cleanses the skin and removes dirt particles, impurities and toxins.
  • Provides effective relief for skin disorders such as psoriasis, eczema, acne and wrinkles.
  • Moisturizes the skin and helps natural skin hydration.
  • Exfoliates dead skin cells to reveal a more healthier and youthful layer of skin.

When Dead Sea mud dries on the surface of the skin, it pulls out any toxins that may be present in your skin cells from your everyday diet. This leaves the skin completely clean, refreshed and pure. It also firms and tightens the skin, providing an exceptional anti-aging benefit, leaving the skin looking younger.

"Comprised of many layers of sedimentary clay formed over thousands of years, rich black mineral mud from the Dead Sea contains an extremely high concentration of minerals, scientifically proven to be essential in the maintenance of healthy skin," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Our Mud Mask replenishes and revitalizes the skin, restoring its natural suppleness and moisture levels while alleviating and soothing soreness, redness and cracking."

Manuka Honey for the Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome


Honey derived from the Manuka plant is being used as a natural alternative to medication for the effective treatment of irritable bowel syndrome.

Statistics indicate that 1 in 5 Americans suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Because of feelings of embarrassment, many patients have been known to wait up to 3 years to see their doctor about IBS symptoms.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a group of symptoms that affect the colon (large intestine). If you have IBS, your colon muscles might contract too much, causing diarrhea, or not enough, causing constipation. IBS symptoms can be triggered by stress, illness, some medications and certain foods (i.e. dairy products, caffeine or alcohol).

IBS symptoms include abdominal pain, cramping, bloating and gas, especially after eating. Individuals suffering from irritable bowel syndrome also experience constipation, diarrhea or both. Other symptoms include mucus in the stool and having the urge to move your bowels after already doing so. Oddly enough, most people with IBS only have mild to moderate symptoms. Very few people experience severe symptoms.

The cause of Irritable Bowel Syndrome is unknown. However, there is a way to control it. Manuka Honey from New Zealand is used by many to successfully treat IBS. The osmotic effect of this particular type of honey helps stool to move by affecting the way fluids move into the colon. Since Manuka Honey is a natural healer, it's been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes.

"Manuka Honey has more healing properties than any other honey," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International which is the largest importer of Manuka Honey in the U.S. "These healing properties are derived from the Manuka plant which is indigenous to New Zealand. Manuka Honey's healing abilities are known to consistently outperform traditional forms of medication."

Manuka Honey for the Treatment of Heartburn and Acid Reflux Disease


A special type of honey indigenous to New Zealand has been found to be effective in eliminating the discomfort of heartburn and Acid Reflux Disease.

Heartburn is when you have a burning sensation in your chest behind your breastbone. It is a symptom of acid reflux disease. This is when acid from your stomach flows back into your esophagus. Persistent heartburn two or more days per week is the most common symptom of acid reflux disease. Other signs include coughing, wheezing, hoarseness, sore throat or difficulty swallowing. Some people experience food coming back into their mouths after swallowing. Others experience a sour or bitter taste in their mouth, belching or burning chest pain that may get worse after eating or lying down.

Everyone experiences heartburn once in a while. However, if you have heartburn two or more days per week, experience symptoms for several months or if the symptoms disrupt your sleep, you may have acid reflux disease.

When you swallow, the muscular walls of your esophagus contract to push food down into your stomach. Your esophagus is a tube that connects your mouth and stomach. In normal digestion, a muscular valve opens to let food into your stomach and closes to keep food and stomach acid from flowing back into your esophagus. If you have heartburn or acid reflux disease, this valve is weak or it relaxes at the wrong time, causing stomach acid to flow back into your esophagus. When stomach acid touches the lining of the esophagus, it creates a burning feeling in your chest or throat. If you have frequent heartburn or acid reflux disease, your esophagus can become damaged.

Other health conditions that affect your digestive system can increase your risk of developing acid reflux disease such as obesity, hiatal hernia, asthma, etc. There is medication available to treat heartburn and acid reflux disease but they usually have a tendency to cause negative side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, upper respiratory tract infections, vomiting and flatulence. Antacids can be used to manage occasional heartburn but they don't provide long-term relief or help to heal damage to your esophagus. In addition, overusing antacids can lead to constipation or diarrhea.

There is a natural solution for heartburn and acid reflux disease. It's called Manuka Honey and it is derived from the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka tea tree which is indigenous to New Zealand. Taking one teaspoon of Manuka Honey about a half hour before breakfast, lunch and dinner and then a fourth time before bed will reduce or eliminate the symptoms of acid reflux disease.

"Manuka Honey has been used as a medicine in New Zealand for decades but has been recently gaining recognition as a natural healing agent in other countries," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International which is the largest importer of Manuka Honey in the U.S. "Manuka Honey has very powerful healing properties that have been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes. We refer to it as natures best kept secret."

An Effective Solution for Dry, Itchy Skin


Honeymark Anti-Itch Cream is effective in treating eczema, insect bites/stings, poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac, seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis.

There are many anti-itch products on the market. The question is, which one is going to help the most? Itchy skin care be caused by a variety of different conditions. Maybe you have eczema or some other type of dermatitis. You might have a mosquito bite or bee sting that's driving you crazy. When your children are playing outside and accidentally come in contact with poison ivy, what will offer the quickest and most effective relief? The best way to relieve itching skin is to heal the cause of the itch. Makes sense, right? Unfortunately, some anti-itch products have difficulty accomplishing this.

Honeymark's secret weapon is an ingredient that comes from the far reaches of the earth, 8000 miles away in the remote, pollution-free countryside of New Zealand. It's called Manuka Honey and it's produced by bees that use the nectar from a native plant called the Manuka tea tree. Manuka Honey has the ability to repair damaged skin and regenerate new healthy skin growth. It also contains natural anti-inflammatory properties that minimizes, or even eliminate irritation and redness. Studies have shown that Manuka Honey has far more healing properties than other types of honey and even some traditional forms of medication.

When using pure Manuka Honey on the skin, you can imagine the sticky mess that one would have to deal with. However, Honeymark's Anti-Itch Cream offers a much more viable and user-friendly solution. Manuka Honey can be diluted up to 100 times and still maintain its efficacy. Blended together with other ingredients that help get to the root of the problem, this product is capable of providing relief fast, even when other products fail.

"Manuka Honey is gaining worldwide recognition for its unparalleled healing ability," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "It's not only extremely effective in remedying a wide spectrum of skin conditions but it also works very quickly. And because Manuka Honey is a natural ingredient, it's been found to have no negative side effects, unlike other ingredients commonly found in anti-itch creams."

Manuka Honey is considered to be a humectant, locking moisture into skin cells. As a general rule, hydrated skin always heals faster than dry skin. It's ability to draw and retain moisture into the skin contributes to its ability to relieve the itching sensation caused by some skin irritants and improves upon the scaly texture that dry skin conditions can cause. Manuka Honey can even diffuse into the depth of skin tissue, past the epidermis layer and getting to deep seeded conditions that other anti-itch products can't reach.

The Impressive Health Accolades of Manuka Honey


Indigenous to New Zealand, this natural healing agent helps to maintain good health, even when other treatment solutions have failed.

Doctors all over the world are perplexed by the amazing healing ability of Manuka Honey. This medical anomaly is gaining worldwide recognition as a viable treatment alternative to antibiotics and other forms of medication. Recently, Manuka Honey has been gaining its well-deserved notoriety because of its capability of eradicating the MRSA bacterium which is responsible for causing life-threatening Staph infections that don't respond to antibiotics.

Manuka Honey is different than other types of honey due to the presence of plant-derived floral components that contain extremely powerful antibacterial properties. These medicinal compounds, in most cases, outperform many pharmaceuticals and traditional forms of medicine. With the general public becoming increasingly more interested in alternative medicine, this natural healing source could become very popular in the years to come.

Manuka Honey has many uses, both internally and topically on the skin. Since Manuka Honey is antibacterial, anti-fungal and antiviral, it can be used to effectively treat health conditions caused by bacteria, a fungus or a virus. Therefore, Manuka Honey can be used for stomach ulcers (H. pylori), infected wounds, ringworm, cold and flu symptoms, etc. It's also been known to act as a "last-resort" treatment when all else fails.

Other common uses include the treatment of acne, eczema, gastrointestinal disorders, acid reflux disease, sinus infections, irritable bowel syndrome, etc. Research has shown that no bacteria has been able to develop a resistance to Manuka honey. There have also been now reports of any negative side effects from its medical use.

Antibiotics are indiscriminate killers. When taken orally, antibiotics kill all bacteria, both good and bad. There are some forms of bacteria that the body needs. The elimination of this good bacteria has a tendency to through the system off balance. Antibiotics are also notorious for causing other negative side effects as well. For reasons that are currently unknown, Manuka Honey does not effect good bacteria in the body and only destroys harmful, infectious bacteria. This is something that pharmaceuticals have not been able to accomplish.

For individuals that are against using antibiotics and chemical-based medicines, Manuka Honey offers a viable treatment option that works fast and effectively. For skeptics, Manuka Honey can safely be used in conjunction with the medicine their doctor has prescribed. However, most people who use Manuka Honey for medical purposes are convinced of its effectiveness immediately.

"Manuka Honey is nature's best kept secret," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "There are still many people who are unaware of its amazing healing capabilities. However, it is our prediction that more people will begin to recognize it in the near future." Honeymark manufactures medical, skin care and personal care products containing bioactive Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent.

Manuka Honey, What It's About


New Zealand honey derived from the Manuka tea tree is proving to be one of the most valued natural resources in the world because of its medicinal qualities and its ability to successfully treat many health conditions, both internally and topically on the skin.

Manuka Honey is produced by bees that use the nectar from the flowers of a particular plant that is indigenous to New Zealand (leptospermum scoparium). Many reports suggest that this unique type of honey contains extraordinary healing properties not found in other types of honey or even some medicines. It has been determined that Manuka Honey's curative properties are largely due to the presence of certain compounds such as a substance known as methylglyoxal, UMF and other floral nectar components from the Manuka plant.

Manuka honey is distinctively flavored, darker and richer in taste than other types of honey and has powerful antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. The finest quality Manuka honey with the most potent antimicrobial properties is produced from beehives placed in wild, uncultivated areas with abundant growth of Manuka bushes.

When taken internally, Manuka Honey has been used to treat conditions such as stomach ulcers, strep throat, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis and other gastrointestinal complications. It has even proven effective in relieving sore throats, stomach aches, and cold/flu symptoms. For internal conditions, it is recommended that a teaspoon of Manuka honey be taken about a half hour before meals. Anecdotal studies have shown that this treatment modality can be more effective than most traditional forms of medicine.

When used topically on the skin, Manuka honey has been used to treat acne, wounds, bacterial and fungal infections, burns, eczema and other forms of dermatitis. Among Manuka honey's many accolades is its ability to eradicate the MRSA bacterium which is responsible for causing antibiotic-resistant Staph infections. For topical applications, Manuka honey should be applied directly to affected areas. To avoid stickiness, it is recommended to use skin care products containing Manuka Honey. New York-based manufacturer, Honeymark, has developed non-sticky Manuka Honey applications.

"Manuka Honey has many uses as a natural healing agent and is becoming very popular as a viable alternative to antibiotics and other traditional forms of medication," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "It frequently outperforms medicine without the risk of negative side effects. Those who are unfamiliar with Manuka honey will begin to hear a lot more of it in the future. It's the next generation of natural healing."

In order to take advantage of all that Manuka Honey has to offer, it is recommend that a potency of UMF 10 or higher is used. For more information or to purchase Manuka Honey products, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com.

Floral Nectar Component of Honey

The nectar of the flowers that honeybees use to produce honey can dramatically effect the flavor, color and medicinal properties of the honey itself.

Some honey is considered to be multi-floral which means that the honeybees used the nectar of several different types of flowers to produce the honey. Beekeepers that want to make a specific type of mono-floral honey will place their hives within close proximity to a certain type of plant so that bees don't have to travel far from their hives in order to collect the nectar. After gathering the nectar, the honeybees go back to their hives where they add enzymes to it to form honey.

Some types of honey are more suitable for medical use than others. For example, Manuka Honey from New Zealand has been found to have the most healing properties out of any other type of honey. As a result, Manuka Honey is now being used for medical purposes to treat conditions such as ulcers, wounds, burns, acid reflux, eczema, fungal and bacterial infections.

The antibacterial variation among floral nectars and the types of honey that are made from various nectars are due to several factors. Some nectar contains catalase, which is an enzyme that neutralizes hydrogen peroxide. This diminishes the effectiveness of the hydrogen peroxide producing mechanism of honey which makes it undesirable for medicinal use. Other nectars contain substances with high antibacterial activity. For example, nectar that is derived from the Manuka Tea Tree has been found to contain antibacterial elements such as methylglyoxal and a substance that has become known as the Unique Manuka Factor or UMF. Manuka Honey has also been found to contain flavonoids which contribute to its antibacterial properties as well as a very high antioxidant activity.

In addition to its antibacterial effect, Manuka Honey has other significant health benefits. Manuka Honey enhances the immune system by stimulating B-lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes to multiply. It also has the ability to reduce inflammation and stimulate cell growth, making it ideal as a wound dressing.

"Regardless of the floral nectar component, all types of honey contain medicinal properties," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International which is a manufacturer of skin care products that contains Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. "However, Manuka Honey contains healing properties not found in any other type of honey which is why we use it in our products. The results we get from this unique type of honey outperforms traditional forms of medicine in most cases." Manuka Honey has also been found to have no negative side effects when used for medical purposes.

Protecting Yourself Against Flu Viruses and Bacterial Infections

Many people are taking advantage of the natural antiviral and antibacterial properties of a unique type of honey indigenous to New Zealand called Manuka honey.

Between growing concerns about the swine flu and MRSA staph infections, communities across the country are in a heightened state of paranoia. These life threatening conditions should be taken seriously and precautionary measures should be followed. The good news is that there are some very simple steps that can be taken to protect yourself and your family.

One important preventative measure is keeping your hands clean. However, the problem is that most antimicrobial products (such as liquid soap and hand gels) contain alcohol which can dry the skin out, creating microscopic cracks that allow germs to get below the surface of the skin where they can cause far more harm. A better solution is to use an alcohol-free product that contains an antimicrobial agent that is not harsh on the skin, such as Manuka Honey.

Manuka Honey is a special type of honey that comes from New Zealand that has natural antibacterial and antiviral properties. Manuka Honey has been clinically proven to eradicate the MRSA bacterium which is responsible for causing Staph infections that are resistant to most antibiotics. Manuka Honey's antiviral properties have also been successful in treating cold and flu symptoms.

Even though Manuka Honey is extremely effective at eliminating these dangerous pathogens, it must be used topically on the skin to do so, not ingested. Manuka Honey has many great health benefits when taken orally but in order for it to be effective in eliminating germs, it must come in direct contact with them. This would require applying the honey directly to your skin.

To avoid the sticky mess of smearing Manuka Honey all over your skin, a company called Honeymark has developed skin care products that contain Manuka Honey as a natural antimicrobial agent. Honeymark products are not sticky but still offer the same advantages of using Manuka Honey. Honeymark has developed a Hand Sanitizing Gel, Liquid Hand Soap and an
Antiseptic Spray, all of which contain Manuka Honey. These products are alcohol-free and very effective in destroying harmful viruses and bacteria on the surface of the skin. In addition, Manuka Honey is considered a humectant which means it has a moisturizing effect on the skin.

"People forget that honey was used for medical purposes long before modern medicine was invented," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "We use active Manuka Honey in our products because it contains antibacterial properties not found in other types of honey. It is our belief that Manuka Honey offers far more protection against flu viruses and bacterial contamination than any type of alcohol-based product."

The Hydrogen Peroxide Producing Capacity of Honey

Honey's ability to produce hydrogen peroxide is one of the main reasons for its antibacterial activity, making it ideal for treating infected wounds.

Hydrogen peroxide can kill bacteria on contact and has been widely used for that purpose. However, straight hydrogen peroxide is unstable and rapidly loses its effectiveness when exposed to air or light. Hydrogen peroxide in high concentrations can also damaged skin tissue. Therefore, the use of pure hydrogen peroxide has lost its popularity among doctors and other medical professionals.

What most people don't know is that honey has the necessary components to produce small amounts of hydrogen peroxide in a slow-release manner. This makes honey an ideal substance to use in the treatment of infected wounds and other bacterial disorders.

The slow-release mechanism in honey that produces hydrogen peroxide is a chemical reaction. Honey contains glucose and an enzyme added by honeybees called glucose oxidase. Under the right conditions, glucose oxidase has the ability to break down glucose into hydrogen peroxide.

Honey itself does not have the right conditions for this reaction to occur. To become active and begin breaking down the glucose in honey, the glucose oxidase requires a pH of 5.5 to 8.0. The pH of undiluted honey is between 3.2 and 4.5 which is far too low to activate the enzyme. Another condition is also required before the glucose oxidase becomes active. For the enzyme to break glucose down into hydrogen peroxide, a certain amount of sodium most be present.

Honey alone does not contain enough sodium to make this happen. However, skin and body fluids have relatively high pH and sodium levels. When honey comes in contact with skin or an open wound, the high pH and sodium levels activate the glucose oxidase and it begins to break down the glucose, releasing hydrogen peroxide.

"It would take a pharmaceutical company many years and billions of dollars to develop an antimicrobial product that could even come close to being as effective in treating wounds as honey," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International which is a manufacturer of skin care products that contains Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. "Even then, it is doubtful that they could create a product that is equally as effective in treating infection as honey."

Manuka Honey from New Zealand is now being used for medical purposes because it seems to contain the most amount of healing properties than any other type of honey. Manuka Honey has even been found to be effective in treating conditions such as MRSA Staph infections, where antibiotics have failed. Buonanotte says that in addition to Manuka Honey's ability to naturally produce low levels of hydrogen peroxide, it also contains unique floral nectar components that are not found in other types of honey.

Many people have lost sight of the fact that honey was used for medicinal purposes many years before modern-day medicine was invented. It is believed that honey will soon make a comeback in the medical industry as antibiotics and traditional forms of medicine become less effective against more resilient mutated bacterial strains. Unlike many pharmaceuticals, honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medical purposes. Medical-grade honey can also be used in addition to prescribed medication without causing any conflict.

Does Manuka Honey Really Work?

Many people who have learned of the incredible healing powers of this unique type of honey have been wondering if it is as effective in treating the wide range of medical symptoms that the reports suggest. The answer is, yes, most definitely.

For those who don't know exactly what Manuka Honey is, it's a premium, medical-grade honey that is derived from the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka Tea Tree, which is indigenous to New Zealand. Honey of any floral source has been found to contain a certain degree of healing properties. However, it has been discovered that Manuka Honey has the most and is more suitable for medicinal use.

It is important to know, however, that not all Manuka Honey is medical-grade. Each batch of Manuka Honey has varied levels of healing properties. In New Zealand, where Manuka Honey is produced and packaged, reputable honey suppliers perform laboratory tests to ensure the antibacterial potency of their honey. One common rating system measures the antibacterial potency on a scale from 0-30. This rating system, known as UMF or Unique Manuka Factor, is comparable to the percentage of the antibacterial activity of phenol. For example, Manuka Honey UMF 10 is equivalent to a 10% solution of phenol.

The higher the UMF rating, the higher the Manuka Honey's antibacterial potency. Only Manuka Honey UMF 10 or higher is considered to be active and suitable for therapeutic use. Although, extraordinarily potent Manuka Honey (i.e. 20+) is somewhat unnecessary and overkill. A good medium range UMF rating is most desirable (i.e. UMF 16). A low UMF rating (i.e. UMF 9 or less) may not have the curative qualities that most people expect from Manuka Honey.

There are some doctors and medical professionals that feel the majority of health conditions are caused by some type of infectious microorganism (i.e. bacteria, virus, fungus or parasite). What makes Manuka Honey so effective is that it is antibacterial, antiviral, anti-fungal and anti-parasitic. Therefore, it is safe to assume that any health complication that is caused by one of these pesty, little microbes can be effectively combated (i.e. ulcers, infections, ringworm, lice, etc.).

"Since Manuka Honey is a natural ingredient, it has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medical purposes," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International, which is a manufacturer of Manuka Honey products. "Even the most resilient bacteria are no match for Manuka Honey's unparalleled antimicrobial properties, such as MRSA and VRE."

Manuka Honey is gaining worldwide recognition for its amazing healing ability. Manuka Honey can be taken orally or used topically on the skin. Just as long as it comes in direct contact with the affected area, it will yield immediate results.

Manuka Honey is being considered the ultimate natural healer by many and, in most cases, can outperform antibiotics and traditional forms of medicine. For more information or to purchase Manuka Honey and Manuka Honey products, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com.

Understanding Medical Grade Manuka Honey

Manuka Honey has become world renowned for its unparalleled healing ability. The following is important information that you should know before buying Manuka Honey.

Honey had been used for medical purposes for thousands of years, prior to the advent of modern-day medicine. Honey's medicinal qualities are attributed to the presence of hydrogen peroxide, low acidity levels, osmotic action and floral nectar components.

There are many different types of honey. The differences are predicated on the floral nectar used by the bees that produced the honey. Manuka Honey from New Zealand is used for medicinal purposes because it contains more healing properties than any other type of honey. However, not all Manuka Honey is suitable for medical use.

Manuka Honey's antibacterial potency varies from batch-to-batch. The only way to know for sure whether a particular batch of Manuka Honey is of medical grade quality, it must be laboratory tested. This is the responsibility of the company that is packaging the honey.

The only honey that should be used for medical purposes is active UMF Manuka Honey. UMF is an acronym for Unique Manuka Factor and is followed by a number which indicates the antibacterial strength of the Manuka Honey. UMF is the authorized seal and registered trademark of the Active Manuka Honey Industry in New Zealand. It can only be applied to the of honey with a laboratory test result of UMF 10 or higher (which is equivalent to 10% phenol). Results obtained from 50% dilution (low acidity test) can not be used for claiming UMF activity.

In New Zealand, Manuka Honey production is regulated by the Active Manuka Honey Industry. The UMF trademark can only be used by UMF licensed suppliers who meet set criteria which include regular monitoring and auditing of the quality of their honey. UMF Manuka Honey from a New Zealand supplier that is licensed to use the UMF trademark is the only honey guaranteed to have the special UMF healing properties and be of the same medical-grade quality that is referred to in research studies and clinical trials.

When the UMF trademark is listed on the label of a Manuka Honey jar, it is a guarantee that the Manuka Honey has the special UMF antibacterial property to the level indicated on the label (i.e. UMF 16). This guarantee only applies to honey that comes from New Zealand suppliers that are licensed to use the UMF trademark.

Genuine UMF Manuka Honey must comply with the following criteria:

1. It has the UMF trademark clearly stated on the front label.
2. It is packed into jars and labelled in New Zealand.
3. It is from a New Zealand supplier licensed to use the UMF trademark.
4. It has the supplier's license number on the label.
5. It has a rating of UMF10 or higher.

If Manuka Honey meets the above listed criteria, it is guaranteed to be active, medical-grade Manuka Honey that is suitable for therapeutic use. If not, the antibacterial potency of the Manuka Honey is questionable.

Honeymark Recognized as Cruelty-Free

Honeymark, a manufacturer of skin care products, is approved by Leaping Buddy, an internationally recognized cruelty-free coalition for developing products that are not tested on animals.

In the 1990s, consumers had become more conscious about purchasing products that are not tested on animals because of the discovery that some manufacturers participated in unethical practices while developing their products. Even though cruelty-free shopping has become popular, it can also be confusing, misleading and frustrating.

Some manufacturers had begun creating their own definition of cruelty-free practices or animal-friendly procedures without the participation of any animal protection groups. As a result, several animal protection groups joined together to form the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC). The CCIC promotes a comprehensive standard and an internationally recognized Leaping Bunny Logo. This coalition is now working with manufacturers to help make shopping for animal-friendly products easier and more reliable.

Today, the Leaping Bunny Program administers a cruelty-free standard and the internationally recognized Leaping Bunny Logo for companies producing cosmetic, personal care and household products. The Leaping Bunny Program provides the best assurance that no new animal testing is used in any phase of product development by the manufacturer, its laboratories or suppliers.

Honeymark International manufactures skin care products containing Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Manuka Honey is indigenous to New Zealand and is derived from the Manuka Tea Tree. It has been discovered that this unique type of mono-floral honey contains extraordinary healing properties not found in other types of honey and even some traditional forms of medicine. In fact, the use of Manuka Honey for therapeutic purposes has even been known to outperform antibiotics and other types of medication in most cases, particularly in the instance of antibiotic-resistant infections (such as MRSA and VRE).

Honeymark manufactures the following products:

In addition to the above listed skin care products, Honeymark also has their own brand of pure Manuka Honey for customers interested in taking advantage of the internal health benefits of Manuka Honey.

A Solution to Antibiotic Resistance

Medical professionals are now using a particular type of honey from New Zealand known as Manuka Honey to treat infections caused by bacteria that have developed a resistance to antibiotics.

In recent years, there has been an escalating concern over the growing resistance of many germs to antibiotics. Penicillin is no longer effective against a number of pathogens. Vancomycin, has long been considered the best weapon against bacteria no longer vulnerable to other drugs. However, it too, is losing its effectiveness. According to experts, almost every human infection (i.e. malaria, tuberculosis, gonorrhea, pneumonia, leprosy, etc.) is now resistant to at least one major class of antibiotics, and the situation is expected to worsen.

Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) one of the most notorious antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria has been wreaking havoc throughout communities all over the world. In fact, the FDA has recently announced that there are more people dying of MRSA in the U.S. than of AIDS, raising it to epidemic proportions. To make matters even worse, some experts are now predicting that there will be an emergence of new strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the future.

There is, however, a solution and it comes in the form of a 3000 year old wound remedy...honey. Honey's effectiveness in suppressing microbes is very different than that of antibiotics. Therefore, antibiotic resistance is less likely with honey. Most microbes need moisture to sustain life. It is, therefore, difficult for microbes to develop resistance to the moisture-extracting properties of honey. Much of honey's antimicrobial activity is bacteriostatic (freezing the bacteria in time and preventing them from spreading) rather than bactericidal or killing the bacteria. Resistance by bacteria is more likely to happen in an agent that kills them (as in the case with most antibiotics) because the few surviving bacteria (and there are always a few) pass on their resistant genes to future generations. To date, no resistance of pathogens to honey has been reported. This is being viewed as an extremely important medical discovery.

Over the past 30 years, antibiotics have been grossly over-prescribed by medical professionals. This overuse of antibiotics is partly due to patients demanding an easy fix, and to pharmaceutical companies promoting that easy fix. The problem is that many antibiotics are indiscriminate killers. When taken orally, they kill all the flora in the gastrointestinal tract, both good and bad. Such indiscriminate killing can throw the whole system off balance. The body contains beneficial microbes that are important for sustaining good health. However, these microbes are less affected by honey than they are by most antibiotics.

As of late, the medical industry has been taking a closer look at honey as a viable alternative to antibiotics in the treatment of many maladies. Not just any honey will do though. Manuka Honey seems to contain more antibacterial properties than any other type of honey. Manuka Honey is produced by bees that feed on the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka Tea Tree, indigenous to New Zealand. This bioactive, medical-grade honey has been proven to destroy infectious bacteria that are responsible for many different types of health complications, including bacteria that has shown a resistance to antibiotics (such as MRSA and VRE).

"Manuka Honey is being considered a shining beacon of hope for medical professionals who have been scrambling for a solution to antibiotic resistance," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International which is a manufacturer of skin care products that contain active Manuka Honey as a healing agent. "Unlike antibiotics, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for therapeutic purposes, making it an extremely valuable commodity in the medical field."

Buy Manuka Honey Wholesale

This medical-grade honey has become quite a commodity as of late since word of its impressive healing qualities have surfaced. Honeymark, now offers retailers easy access to this premium honey.

Honeymark International is well-known for its unique line of high-end skin care products that utilizes Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Manuka Honey has many health benefits when used for medicinal purposes, both internally and topically on the skin. When taken orally, Manuka Honey is a welcomed alternative to medicine since it tastes better, is less expensive, has no negative side effects and is more effective in most circumstances.

Many retail store managers have found themselves being badgered by their customers to carry this special type of honey, forcing them to scour the earth in search of Manuka Honey distributors to help accommodate this demand. Honeymark has met that demand in short order by supplying the highest quality Manuka Honey available.

Manuka Honey is produced by honeybees that utilize the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka Tea Tree, which is indigenous to New Zealand. Importing Manuka Honey from New Zealand can be quite costly and could take weeks. When finding a quality Manuka Honey to sell, it is also important to take the antibacterial potency into consideration. Some Manuka Honey suppliers sell honey that has a low or questionable UMF rating which can render the honey less effective from a medicinal perspective. This low-grade Manuka Honey doesn't have any more healing properties than the ordinary honey that you would find in your local supermarket.

Conversely, Manuka Honey with an extraordinarily high UMF rating is not desirable either. Manuka Honey with a UMF rating of 20 or higher is very rare, extremely expensive and overly potent. In fact there have been reports of some people experiencing sensitivity to Manuka Honey that is that potent. The most ideal Manuka Honey is a medium range with a UMF rating of 10-18. Manuka Honey with a UMF rating of less than 10 may not have enough antibacterial properties to effectively treat more serious conditions. Honeymark carries active Manuka Honey UMF 16+ which is ideal for therapeutic use.

Another thing to consider is that if a Manuka Honey brand does not indicate on the label that it is from New Zealand or doesn't display a UMF rating or Methylglyoxal level, its potency might be questionable.

A few highlights of Honeymark brand Manuka Honey are as follows:

  • Our supplier in New Zealand is a registered member of the Active Manuka Honey Association which ensures that our Manuka Honey is tested for its antibacterial properties and allows us to legally display the UMF trademark on our label;

  • Our Manuka Honey is UMF 16+ which is an active, medical-grade Manuka Honey and idea for medicinal use;

  • Our Manuka Honey is reasonably priced;

  • Since we are located in the U.S., shipping charges are far less expensive than importing Manuka Honey directly from New Zealand;

  • Our containers include barcodes;

  • Honeymark is a well-recognized brand and is known in the industry and to consumers as Manuka Honey specialists.


"Any store that is currently selling Manuka Honey knows that it has a tendency to fly off the shelves," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "It is just a matter of time until its healing power is recognized by everyone. The results of using Manuka Honey for medical purposes is far too impressive for it not to explode into a retail sensation." In addition to its exceptional medicinal value, Manuka Honey is also very tasty and can be used in tea, on toast, etc. It can also be used as an excellent alternative to sugar.

For more information on wholesale prices or to purchase Honeymark brand Manuka Honey, call 1-866-427-7329. Consumers can purchase Honeymark's Manuka Honey online at www.HoneymarkProducts.com.

Buying Manuka Honey in the U.S.

Honeymark has announced the launch of their own brand of Manuka Honey. This active, medical-grade honey comes from New Zealand and is known for its ability to cure a wide range of health conditions.

Manuka Honey is becoming a well-recognized health remedy in the U.S. market and all over the world. In the quiet, pollution-free countryside of New Zealand, hardworking honeybees gather nectar from a very special flower that grows on a native bush called the Manuka Tea Tree (also known as Leptospermum scoparium). It is this nectar that contains molecules that many believe holds the key to healing many different illnesses. Most recently, Manuka Honey has been gaining worldwide recognition for its ability to eradicate the MRSA bacterium that is responsible for causing life threatening Staph infections that are otherwise impervious to antibiotics. The resilient superbugs associated with MRSA are no match for the potent antibacterial properties of Manuka Honey.

Manuka Honey gets its antibacterial properties from 4 main components. It's osmolarity in effect dehydrates infectious microorganisms by drawing moisture out of bacterial cells. Manuka Honey is also very acidic with pH levels not conducive for bacterial growth. Like other types of honey, Manuka Honey also contains low levels of hydrogen peroxide which is a known antiseptic. What makes Manuka Honey different than other types of honey are the plant-derived floral components that are present, such as methylglyoxal and a not yet recognized compound that has become known as the Unique Manuka Factor or UMF. These floral nectar components contribute greatly to its antibacterial activity.

In addition to its powerful antibacterial properties, Manuka Honey is also considered to be antimicrobial, anti-fungal, antiviral and anti-parasitic. Since most health conditions are cause by some sort of bacteria, virus, fungus or parasite, Manuka Honey is being recognized as a viable treatment option for many conditions that don't respond well to traditional forms of medication. When taken orally, Manuka Honey is effective in treating sore throats, strep throat, stomach aches, stomach ulcers, acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, gastro-intestinal disorders, cold and flu symptoms, etc. When used topically on the skin, Manuka Honey is effective in treating infected wounds, burns, acne, eczema, ringworm and a variety of other conditions.

Since its origin is New Zealand, Manuka Honey can be somewhat hard to come by. Shipping costs from New Zealand to the U.S. can sometimes exceed the amount of the honey itself. However, now U.S. consumers can purchase Honeymark brand Manuka Honey more conveniently. Honeymark's Manuka Honey is certified by the Active Manuka Honey Association in New Zealand to be active UMF 16+ which is a potent medical-grade honey. Consumers should beware of other companies that sell less potent Manuka Honey for a discounted price. Manuka Honey that is not bioactive does not contain enough antimicrobial properties necessary for medicinal use. Honeymark assures their customers that their Manuka Honey is of medical grade.

Honeymark International is known for manufacturing quality skin care products that contain active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Honeymark's skin care products are not sticky and offer the same benefits of Manuka Honey without the sticky mess. When used for internal purposes, Manuka Honey usually outperforms most medicines, with of course, a much more pleasant flavor. If you're having difficulty getting your children to take medicine when they're sick, Manuka Honey may be an easier choice. And Manuka Honey is a natural product, it has also been found to have no known side effects.

"Manuka Honey has become an extremely important resource and valuable commodity," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "As word continues to spread about the healing ability of this premium honey, it will become viewed more as a natural treatment alternative to pharmaceutical medication." Honeymark plans to continue to expand its range of Manuka honey-based products to include a Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, Lip Balm, Foaming Cleanser and Moisturizer. Customers can expect to see these new products later this year.

Honey, the Ultimate Natural Antibacterial Agent

Honeymark, a manufacturer of skin care products, uses honey as a main ingredient because of its ability to kill bacteria and other infectious microbes.

Most people think of honey as merely a food item. However, honey is gaining its well-deserved notoriety as a medicinal ingredient because of its powerful antibacterial properties. There are four main characteristics of honey that are responsible for its ability to kill bacteria: Osmolarity, acidity, hydrogen peroxide and floral nectar.

Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugar that is high in osmolarity. It is this osmolarity that allows honey to destroy bacteria and fungus by drawing moisture for their cells. Fungal and bacterial cells require moisture to survive. Therefore, honey destroys bacteria and fungi by dehydration.

In addition to honey's osmotic effect, its acidity plays an important role in its antibacterial activity. Honey contains a number of acids, including amino acids and organic acids. Honey has a pH between 3.2 and 4.5 which inhibits the growth of bacteria. The optimum pH for growth of these species normally falls between 7.2 and 7.4.

The hydrogen peroxide producing capacity of honey is believed to be the main reason for its antibacterial activity. Hydrogen peroxide kills bacteria on contact and has been widely used for that very purpose. However, straight hydrogen peroxide is unstable and rapidly loses its effectiveness when exposed to air and light. It can also damage tissue when used in high concentrations. However, honey produces low levels of hydrogen peroxide over a prolonged period of time. This slow-release capability makes honey particularly ideal for treating infected wounds.

The variation of honey's antibacterial properties are predicated on the floral source, more specifically, the nectar used by the honeybees that produce the honey. Some types of honey contain more antibacterial properties than others. It has been determined that Manuka Honey from New Zealand has the highest amount of antibacterial properties than any other type of honey. Manuka Honey is made by bees that gather nectar from the flowers that grow on the Manuka tree which can be found predominately in New Zealand and certain parts of Australia. It is believed that the floral components of Manuka Honey enhance the other antimicrobial properties that are present, creating a synergistic action that is optimal for therapeutic use.

In addition to Manuka Honey's antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, it has been determined that it stimulates B-lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes to multiply which boosts the body's immune system. Manuka Honey also contains anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce pain when used topically on the skin. Manuka Honey is also rich in vitamins, antioxidants and amino acids.

Manuka Honey has a miraculous way of repairing damaged skin and regenerating new skin growth which is why it is an excellent natural ingredient to use in skin care products. A company called Honeymark has developed a line of skin care products that contain Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Honeymark's line includes the following products:

Blended with other useful ingredients, Honeymark products take the sticky mess out of applying honey directly to the skin. Honeymark also sells pure Manuka Honey for individuals who are interested in taking advantage of its internal uses. When taken orally, Manuka Honey is effective in treating conditions such as stomach aches, stomach ulcers, soar throats, steph throat, acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, cold and flu symptoms, etc.

"Manuka Honey has far more impressive healing qualities than any other type of honey," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Honey was used for medicinal purposes for many years before modern-day medicines were invented. With growing concerns of the negative side effects associated with the use of pharmaceuticals along with the ineffectiveness of antibiotics against certain drug-resistant strains of infectious bacteria, honey is slowing finding its way back into the favor of medical professionals around the world."

Honey, the Medicine of Choice for Many

After being forgotten as a viable treatment source, honey is being rediscovered as a preferred method of healing a wide spectrum of health conditions, both internally and topically on the skin.

Many cultures have embraced the concept of using honey as a medicine. Cave paintings in Spain dating as far back as 7000 B.C. show men collecting honey from a bee colony. The medicinal properties of honey have been known since ancient times. A Sumerian tablet from around 3000 B.C. prescribes honey to treat an infected skin ulcer. Papyrus writings dated 2000 B.C. from Egypt prescribes honey to treat a gaping wound of the eyebrow. Before modern-day medicine as we know it was invented, honey was used for its medicinal properties.

The ancient Egyptians, Assyrians, Chinese, Greeks and Romans all used honey to treat a variety of ailments. Around 350 B.C., Aristotle wrote about honey being used to treat wounds and sore eyes. Muhammad, the Muslim prophet, recommended honey to treat diarrhea, and the Koran mentions the curative properties of honey.

Once the therapeutic value of honey was discovered, it was widely used regularly as for medical purposes. Ancient cultures accepted the use of honey as a medicine. The medicinal benefits of honey were passed on from generation to generation, and today honey is a popular medicine in many parts of the world, with a notable exception of the United States.

Why not the U.S.? Many in the American medical community still view honey as a food item and well outside the mainstream of medicine. Many U.S. doctors are reluctant to even experiment with honey for fear of being ostracized by their peers. However, European and other countries have a long history of honey and its medicinal benefits.

One U.S. company has made major strides in bringing the use of honey as a medicine back into the limelight. Honeymark International, a New York-based company uses a particular type of honey from New Zealand known as Manuka Honey in its products. Even though all types of honey have medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey seems to have more than others.

When using Manuka Honey to treat internal ailments, such as stomach ulcers, strep throat, acid reflux, etc., ingesting it is easy because many of us enjoy eating honey, and it tastes better than medicine. However, using Manuka Honey topically on the skin can be somewhat of a sticky mess. Honeymark has developed skin care products containing active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent to avoid this inconvenience. Honeymark's cream-based products and lotions make it easy to take advantages of the health benefits of Manuka Honey.

Honeymark offers a line of Manuka Honey skin care products to treat conditions such as infected wounds, burns, eczema, ringworm, acne, arthritis and even wrinkles. Manuka Honey has very powerful antibacterial properties that make it ideal for eliminating infectious bacteria that are responsible for many health concerns. One of Manuka Honey's greatest accolades is its ability to health MRSA Staph infections, where antibiotics and other traditional forms of medicine have failed.

Honey, Natures Medicine

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.”

Manuka Honey for the Treatment of Wounds

Doctors around the world are taking advantage of a unique type of honey that is indigenous to New Zealand called Manuka Honey because of its incomparable healing properties, particularly in the area of wound care.

Manuka Honey is derived from the nectar of the tea tree flower which grows wild throughout the pollution-free countryside of New Zealand. This amazing natural resource is gaining worldwide acceptance as a breakthrough wound dressing because of its exceptional ability to disinfect and heal.

There are hundreds of different types of honeys that are produced by bees around the world. Even though all types of honey contain some healing properties, mostly due to the presence of hydrogen peroxide, Manuka Honey is renowned for having the most medicinal compounds which sets it apart of the rest. Manuka Honey is known for having the following characteristics:

* antibacterial
* antimicrobial
* antiviral
* anti-parasitic
* antioxidant
* antiseptic
* anti-inflammatory
* anti-fungal

Because of these curative qualities, Manuka Honey is considered a viable treatment alternative to conventional medicines and has become a staple within the medical industry. Manuka Honey possesses all of the necessary qualities to be the perfect wound dressing. There are many components to wound care. Below are some key points that make Manuka Honey ideal for wound management:

1. Its antibacterial properties destroy harmful microorganisms that cause infection.
2. Its anti-inflammatory properties help to reduce pain.
3. It has the ability to repair damaged skin and regenerate new skin growth.
4. It creates a moist healing environment that allows new skin cells to grow flush with the surface of the wound, preventing deformity of the skin and scaring.
5. It eliminates malodor by destroying the bacteria that cause it.
6. It's effective in destroying antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA.
7. It's an all-natural substance that has been found to have no negative side effects.

One skin care manufacturer is now using Manuka Honey as a main ingredient in their products. Honeymark has developed a wound care product containing active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. Their First Aid Antiseptic Lotion has been used to treat serious conditions such as chronic wounds, skin ulcers, pressure sores, MRSA Staph infections and other hard-to-heal wounds where traditional forms of medicine have failed.

"We've taken the sticky mess out of applying Manuka Honey directly to the skin," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Our First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is a formulation of wound healing ingredients combined with all of the healing benefits of Manuka Honey."

Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion with Manuka Honey can also be used for minor cuts, scrapes and burns. For more information or to purchase this product, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com.

Treating Acne with Manuka Honey

It has been discovered that a special type of honey found in New Zealand called Manuka Honey has natural healing properties which help to repair skin affected by acne.

Manuka Honey has been used as a topical agent to treat a wide range of skin problems, including infected wounds, burns, eczema, ringworm, etc. It has recently been gaining worldwide recognition for its ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells, killing even the most resilient forms of infectious bacteria, including MRSA. It is now recognized that Manuka Honey also has the ability to draw impurities out of the skin, unclogging pores and clearing acne breakouts. It penetrates the blocked follicle, kills the bacteria that cause acne and helps to unblock the follicle allowing the built up infection to be released. This leaves a sterile clear follicle which heals quickly, reducing or even preventing scars from forming.

Independent studies have shown that Manuka Honey reduces inflammation and promotes the healing process. Unlike ingredients found in many acne products, Manuka Honey has a very hydrating effect on the skin. It is a known fact that hydrated skin heals better and faster than dry skin. Manuka Honey is regarded as a natural moisturizer. Since it's a natural ingredient and an anti-irritant, Manuka Honey doesn't aggravate sensitive skin, which is common among acne sufferers.

Manuka Honey is known for its effectiveness as an antimicrobial agent. This makes it useful for treating acne breakouts because it prevents bacteria from growing. The acidic environment of honey is not an ideal environment for bacterial growth. Honey is also low in protein which deprives bacteria of nitrogen, an element needed for bacteria to grow. With infection-causing bacteria eliminated, redness associated with acne is also eliminated. In addition, Manuka Honey's anti-inflammatory properties help to eliminate inflamed tissue that may be causing pain or discomfort.

A New York-based manufacturer of skin care products called Honeymark has combined the formulation of a powerful acne cream with the potent healing properties of active Manuka Honey. Honeymark's Acne Cream contains a medical-grade Manuka Honey that quickly goes to work on pimples yielding immediate results.

"Manuka Honey's antibacterial properties penetrating deeply into the epidermis, killing bacteria and relieving blocked follicles," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "The moist healing environment created by Manuka Honey allows new skin to grow flush with the surface of the skin which prevents scarring or skin deformity in more serious cases of acne."
