Review of Honeymark Products

The following is a comprehensive overview of the high-end skin care products manufactured by Honeymark, and the role that Manuka Honey plays as a natural healing ingredient.

If you have never heard of Manuka Honey, expect to be hearing about it in the future. It could very well be one of the most beneficial substances in the world to put on your skin. Studies have shown that Manuka Honey contains natural antimicrobial properties that eliminate infectious microorganisms, moisturize dry skin and reduce inflammation.

Despite all of its amazing healing properties, Manuka Honey is sometimes not used because its sticky consistency makes for an inconvenient skin care regimen. However, Boston-based manufacturer, Honeymark International, has developed a line of skin care products containing Manuka Honey that are a lot more user-friendly. Research shows that Manuka Honey can be diluted up to 100 times and still maintain its effectiveness. Therefore, blending it together with other natural ingredients does not diminish it's healing potency.

Acne Cream

There are several different types of acne. Blackheads are the result of oil and dead cells getting trapped in a pore where they block the duct and mix with bacteria. They then turn black when exposed to air. Red pimples develop when blackheads become inflamed and they spread when touched with dirty hands. When the pimple becomes infected, it develops a whitehead or pustule. These can break and cause scars.

Manuka Honey has been found to be effective in treating acne for several reasons. There is no better substance for eliminating bacteria on the surface of the skin than Manuka Honey. Its antibacterial properties are second to none. It also has the ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells, making it impossible for the bacteria to survive. Therefore, Manuka Honey's antibacterial activity destroys the bacteria and its osmotic effect helps to draw the bacteria and other impurities out of the pores of the skin. It's anti-inflammatory effect reduces the inflammation associated with some forms of acne, which in turn eliminates the redness. Manuka Honey also stimulates the formation of certain proteins in the skin that can help to reduce scarring, repair damaged skin and regenerate new healthy skin growth.

Manuka Honey is also hygroscopic which means it draws moisture from the air and puts it into skin cells where it moisturizes. Unlike many acne products that have a tendency to dry the skin, Manuka honey has a moisturizing effect. You can use Manuka honey as a spot treatment by dabbing it on existing breakouts or you can use Honeymark's Acne Cream which contains Manuka Honey.

Anti-Wrinkle Serum

Wrinkles are a by-product of the aging process. With age, skin cells divide more slowly, and the inner layer, called the dermis, begins to thin. The network of elastin (the protein which causes skin to stretch) and collagen fibers (the major structural proteins in the skin), which support the outer layer, loosen and unravel, causing depressions on the surface. With aging, skin also loses its elasticity, is less able to retain moisture, oil-secreting glands are less efficient and the skin is slower to heal. All of these contribute to the development of wrinkles.

Manuka Honey is effective in reducing wrinkles and the appearance of aging because it has the ability to increase the production of elastin and collagen fibers. In addition to Manuka Honey, Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum also contains other natural ingredients that have a firming effect on the skin.

First Aid Antiseptic Lotion

Manuka Honey has an antibacterial activity that is impressing medical professionals around the world. By osmosis, it has the ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells. It also contains antibacterial compounds such as methylglyoxal and UMF. Manuka Honey also creates an acidic environment not conducive for the formation of bacteria. All of these factors make Manuka Honey ideal for healing infections. In fact, its antibacterial properties are so powerful, it is also used to treat infections caused by antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA and VRE.

Manuka Honey can be used effectively to treat wounds, burns, blisters and infections. Even hard to heal conditions such as skin ulcers, pressure sores, surgical and chronic wounds are no match for the incredible healing powers of Manuka Honey. Wound care products such as Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion and Antiseptic Spray are also a good option because they are not sticky.

Anti-Fungal Cream

In addition to its impressive antibacterial properties, Manuka Honey also contains strong anti-fungal properties. Fungal infections such as ringworm, athlete's foot, jock-itch, tinea and nail fungus can all be treated with Manuka Honey. However, its viscous consistency makes it impractical to use topically on some of these conditions. Honeymark's Anti-Fungal Cream is a more viable solution.

Anti-Itch Cream

Eczema is a form of dermatitis or inflammation of the outer layer of the skin (epidermis ). As discussed above, Manuka Honey's anti-inflammatory properties help to alleviate this inflammation, reverting skin back to its original form. Manuka Honey has the ability to both repair damaged skin and regenerate new skin growth. It's moisturizing ability also removes the dry patches associated with eczema and other forms of dermatitis. Try Honeymark's Anti-Itch Cream to take advantage of Manuka Honey's ability to treat this condition.

The Medical Marvel that is Manuka Honey


What do the ancient Egyptians, Assyrians, Chinese, Greeks, and Romans have in common? They all recognized honey as a powerful treatment for a variety of medical conditions. In fact, records show that honey has been prized for its natural healing properties as far back as 3000 BC.

During the mid 20th century, the era of modern antibiotic medicine began – and the use of honey as a medicinal treatment fell out of favor. Although antibiotics were initially heralded as the most effective weapon against bacteria, over time antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria began to develop. Today, many pharmaceutical companies aren't developing new antibiotics because of this growing problem.

That’s why there’s an urgent need for a new non-antibiotic treatment to fight infection. Honey is the answer. In fact, Manuka Honey from New Zealand is reported to have the highest levels of healing properties. More so than any other type of honey in the world. Extensive research demonstrates that Manuka honey contains very powerful healing properties, making it extremely effective for use in wound care and for maintaining general health and well-being.

In 1982, Professor Peter Molan, a scientist from the University of Waikato in New Zealand, discovered that honey harvested from the Manuka tree, native only to New Zealand, contains unique healing properties such as the following:

Bacteriostatic – Manuka honey creates an environment that inhibits bacterial growth.
Anti-inflammatory – Manuka honey reduces both acute and chronic inflammation, which helps reduce pain, scarring and hastens the healing process.
Antioxidant – Manuka honey contains high levels of antioxidants to help prevent the formation of free radicals, which can damage tissue.
Moisture-maintaining – Manuka honey creates and maintains a moist healing environment supporting the cell growth that is essential to effective wound healing.

Scientists and doctors around the world have recognized active, medical-grade Manuka honey as being more effective than ordinary honey. Therefore, it is important to know that Manuka honey is not the same as ordinary honey sold at supermarkets. Manuka honey is harvested from bees that pollinate the flowers that grow on the Manuka plant. This unique bush is native to New Zealand and renowned for its potent antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant healing properties.

Another critical difference between regular honey and Manuka honey is that regular honey undergoes heat treatment during the packaging process, which destroys the healing properties. Manuka honey is finely filtered to remove all processing particles but is usually sold raw and unprocessed with all enzymes and healing properties stable and intact. The result is an extremely pure, highly effective medical-grade honey that has very little in common with common honey. Higher quality brands of Manuka Honey are also laboratory tested for its antibacterial potency and rated on a scale from 0 through 30. Manuka Honey with a UMF rating of 16 is ideal for medicinal use and recommended for most applications.

Manuka honey has been found to be effective against a wide range of bacteria such as the following:

  • Staphylococcus aureus – staph infections.
  • MRSA – antibiotic-resistant staph infection.
  • E-coli – the most common cause of infected wounds.
  • Streptococcus pyogenes – common cause of sore throat.
  • Helicobacter pylori – a bacteria linked to stomach ulcers.
  • Vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE) – another antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa – a common bacteria.
  • Enterococcus faecalis – a bacteria found in the gastrointestinal tract.
  • Salmonella – an illness-causing bacteria.

Manuka honey’s anti-inflammatory properties have been found to:

  • Reduce swelling
  • Reduce pain
  • Reduce scarring

For maintaining general health and well-being, Manuka honey can be used to:

  • Stimulate the immune system
  • Fight infection
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Enhance digestive health
  • Support natural body defenses

Manuka honey is effective in treating a variety of external and internal health conditions:

External

  • Infected wounds
  • Scars
  • Skin protection
  • Acne
  • Eczema
  • Psoriasis
  • Scrapes, cuts, burns, blisters
  • Ringworm
  • Insect bites/stings

Internal

  • Stomach, ear, urinary tract, eye, throat, sinus infections
  • Digestive health
  • Stimulates immune system
  • Sore/strep throat
  • Stomach aches/ulcers
  • Gum disease
  • Acid reflux, heartburn, gastritis
  • Irritable bowel syndrome

Manuka Honey for Good Health and Natural Healing


Since the time of the ancient Egyptians, honey has been used for its healing powers. Today, one particular type of honey is being used in hospitals and homes around the world. That honey is Manuka Honey, which has become world renowned for its medical properties. Manuka honey is a mono-floral honey, meaning that the bees use the nectar from only one floral source. In this case, that source is the Manuka plant, indigenous to New Zealand. This unique type of honey contains powerful antimicrobial properties that can be used to treat a wide range of medical conditions.

Internally, Manuka Honey can be used for stomach ulcers (Helicobacter Pylori), sore throats (Streptococcus Pyogenes) and for general health and wellness. Many people have reported feeling better and having more energy just from taking Manuka honey on a regular basis. Topically on the skin, Manuka Honey has proven effective in healing wounds, burns, sores, ulcers, acne, boils, damaged skin and eczema. It provides a germ-free healing environment, ideal for infected wounds. Clinical studies also show that Manuka Honey heals wounds faster with less skin scarring.

All honey has some antibacterial activity because of its ability to produce low levels of hydrogen peroxide. However, the difference in potency can vary more than 100-fold between different honeys. Researchers have discovered that Manuka Honey has another type of antibacterial activity in addition to the hydrogen peroxide activity that is not present in other types of honey. This unique Manuka factor is more effective against many types of infectious microorganisms. It also remains effective in body tissues and fluids, whereas the healing properties in other types of honey are easily broken down by enzymes in the body.

For general wellness, simply take a teaspoon of Manuka honey each day. For more severe conditions such as stomach ulcers, acid reflux disease, irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis, etc., it is recommended that you take one teaspoon about 30 minutes before meals, either off the spoon or on a piece of toast. For strep or sore throats, let the honey slide down you throat slowly. For external use, apply Manuka honey directly to the affected area 1-2 times per day. If this becomes too much of a sticky mess, try using Manuka Honey skin care products.

It’s important to buy Manuka honey from a reputable source. Some Manuka Honey is not potent enough to be suitable for medicinal use. Only use active, medical-grade Manuka Honey with a UMF rating between 10 and 16.

Manuka Honey, Nature's Medicine


Manuka Honey is a medicinal honey produced by bees that utilize the nectar from the flowers of the Manuka bush, indigenous to New Zealand. It contains a specific antibacterial compound known as the Unique Manuka Factor or UMF, which has been found to heal a plethora of medical conditions. It is deemed medicinal because of its healing properties. Only a small area in New Zealand produces this specific nectar, which has the healing properties relative to this honey. The bees forage only from a very small and specific area in this region. Honeybees generally don't travel more than two miles from the hive, otherwise their wing muscles tire out. Therefore, the beekeepers can control the plant areas in which the bees collect their nectar. Manuka Honey is a mono-floral honey, meaning that the bees only use the nectar of this one particular flower to produce the honey.

Honey has been used for its healing powers for thousands of years. Prior to the advent of antibiotics and other traditional forms of medicine, honey was utilized for its antibacterial properties to treat wounds and other health conditions. Since most modern doctors are now trained to believe in pharmaceuticals, honey has now taken somewhat of a back seat to traditional medicine. However, Dr. Peter Molan, a biochemist from New Zealand, has discovered an amazing factor in Manuka honey that is different than all other types of honey.

Manuka Honey's unique antibacterial activity are due to several factors:

  1. Osmotic Effect - Bacteria do not have enough water to form because Manuka honey combines its sugar with water and bonds strongly together, leaving bacteria without a sufficient water source necessary for growth.

  2. Acidity Component - Manuka Honey has an acidity level of pH 3.2-4.5. Bacterial growth occurs between pH 7.2-7.4.

  3. Hydrogen Peroxide - When Manuka Honey comes in contact with the sodium present on the surface of the skin, a chemical reaction occurs, producing low levels of hydrogen peroxide, which destroys infectious bacteria.

  4. Phytochemical Component - The Unique Manuka Factor reacts together and enhances the other antibacterial factors and works synergistically to destroy infectious bacteria.


Manuka Honey can be taken orally to provide relief to a number of internal health conditions. It's sweet and it tastes great. It is dark in color and has a thick, caramel-like consistency. To achieve and maintain good digestive health, take 3 to 4 teaspoons per day before meals. You can use Manuka Honey to alleviate sore throats, cold/flu symptoms and Tonsillitis. Manuka Honey has been tested on Helicobacter Pylori, the bacteria that causes most stomach ulcers, and found to be effective. Not only does it eradicate the bacteria but it also heals the inner walls of the stomach that were damaged by the bacteria. Manuka Honey is also used for Dyspepsia, Peptic Ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, heartburns, Acid Reflux Disease, gastritis, etc.

In addition to its internal uses, Manuka Honey can also be used topically on the skin to treat burns, pressure sores, boils, skin ulcers, wounds, acne, eczema, ringworm, etc. In these cases, apply Manuka Honey (or a skin care product that contains Manuka Honey) directly to the affected area 1-2 times per day. Manuka Honey has the ability to diffuse deeply into skin tissues, drawing dirt out of wounds by osmosis. It reduces scarring, stimulates tissue regeneration, forms a protective barrier over the wound, nourishes skin tissue growth and repairs damaged skin.

What Makes Honeymark Brand Manuka Honey Better Than Others?


It is important to know what to look for in Manuka Honey in order to take advantage of all its health benefits. Not all Manuka Honey is medicinal.

Manuka Honey is world renowned for its extraordinary healing properties. Due to certain plant-derived components, this unique type of honey contains natural antibacterial, antiviral and anti-fungal properties not found in other types of honey. It also contains more vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants than ordinary honey.

Not all Manuka Honey is created equal. Manuka Honey's antibacterial potency varies from batch-to-batch, predicated on the amount of floral nectar used by the honeybees during the production stage. The only way to know for sure if a particular batch of Manuka Honey is active and suitable for therapeutic use is if it's laboratory tested.

Only active, UMF Manuka Honey will yield the same results that people have come to expect of Manuka Honey. UMF is an acronym for Unique Manuka Factor and is usually followed by a number which indicates the antibacterial strength of the honey. UMF is the authorized seal and registered trademark of the Active Manuka Honey Association in New Zealand. This trademark can only be applied to the label of honey with a laboratory test result of UMF 10 or higher.

Only Manuka Honey that is regulated by the Active Manuka Honey Association can bare the UMF trademark. A jar of Manuka Honey that is labeled as being "active" followed by a number does not provide a guarantee that it is as potent as advertised. For example, if the label indicates, "active 10", the number is borrowed from the UMF rating system but because the honey is not regulated by the Active Manuka Honey Association, that particular brand cannot legally use the UMF trademark. Therefore, it is unknown if the honey was laboratory tested for its antibacterial potency.

To be certain of the potency, a jar of Manuka Honey should indicate the UMF trademark and a number of 10 or higher (i.e. UMF 16). It's also important to know that in the U.S., the FDA does not regard honey of any kind as being active. If the label of a jar of Manuka Honey says, "active" it is in violation of FDA regulations.

Honeymark is an importer of Manuka Honey and a manufacturer of natural Manuka Honey skin care products. Honeymark brand Manuka Honey meets the following standards:

1. Regulated by the Active Manuka Honey Association in New Zealand;
2. Laboratory tested for its antibacterial potency;
3. Certified UMF 16+ active, medical-grade;
4. 100% pure, raw and unprocessed;
5. Bottled and labeled in New Zealand.

Doctors Find the Health Benefits of Manuka Honey to be Buzz Worthy


Medical professionals have discovered that a particular type of honey from New Zealand contains special healing properties that make it effective in treating many different types of symptoms.


Since the dawn of time, honey has been used for medical purposes. Honey is an ideal natural medicine, mostly because of its antibacterial properties. In the mid 1940s when antibiotics were invented, doctors assumed they were a better treatment option than honey. Even today, most western doctors are trained to believe in pharmaceuticals, not natural alternatives. However, with the dilemma of infections caused by antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria, the medical community is desperate for other solutions.

In addition to antibiotic resistance and an array of negative side effects, antibiotics have another downside. Antibiotics are indiscriminate killers, destroying as much bacteria in the body as they can. This removes the good bacteria along with the bad. The body contains intestinal flora that is necessary for normal functioning. Honey offers a better solution by destroying only the harmful, infectious bacteria and leaving good bacteria.

There are many different types of honey. Before you go digging through your food cabinet, it's important to know that some honeys have more healing properties than others. This is predicated on the floral nectar used by the bees that produced it. Manuka Honey from New Zealand has been found to have a significantly higher level of antibacterial activity than any other type of honey.

Even Manuka Honey should be chosen wisely. Only medical-grade Manuka Honey should be used for medicinal purposes. In the U.S., the nutritional supplements industry is not regulated by the FDA the way pharmaceuticals are. For example, you can go to a health food store to purchase a bottle of vitamins without knowing that they are only 10% potent. The same goes for honey. Unfortunately, the FDA onlhy regards honey as a food item, not a medicinal item. Therefore, there is no regulatory standards to measure the antibacterial potency of honey in the U.S.

However, in New Zealand where Manuka Honey comes from, a rating system exists. Manuka Honey with a UMF rating between 10 and 16 is ideal for medicinal use. Less than UMF 10 is not potent enough and more than UMF 16 is too potent and usually overpriced. A medium range is most desirable. Using Manuka Honey without an active UMF rating is not recommended.

When using an active, medical-grade Manuka Honey, it is possible to effectively treat conditions such as sore throats, strep throat, stomach ulcers, cold and flu symptoms, acid reflux disease, heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis, etc. Manuka Honey can also be used topically on the skin to treat infected wounds, acne, ringworm, cold sores, pressure sores, skin ulcers, MRSA, etc.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Using Manuka Honey as a Natural Healing Agent

Recent studies have uncovered the extraordinary healing powers of a special type of honey only found in the New Zealand region.

Scientists and chemists have combed the far reaches of the earth in search of natural ingredients that can be used for medicinal purposes. One of the more recent discoveries is that of a unique type of honey that is so effective in treating certain health conditions that it has even outperformed medicine in some cases. This medical-grade honey is known as bio-active Manuka Honey.

Manuka Honey is a premium mono-floral honey produced by bees that feed on the nectar of the flowers that grow on the Manuka bush, which is indigenous to New Zealand. It has been discovered that honey made from this nectar contains certain plant-derived components that are very effective in treating a wide spectrum of health conditions.

When taken orally, Manuka Honey is effective in treating stomach aches, stomach ulcers, sore throats, acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, cold and flu symptoms, etc. Manuka Honey can also be used topically on the skin to treat conditions such as acne, wounds, burns, wrinkles, eczema, ringworm and even MRSA Staph infections.

Some people are under the misconception that if they consume Manuka Honey by taking it orally, it can be effective in treating some of these topical conditions. Even though Manuka Honey has many health benefits when ingested, it has to be applied directly to the affected area to work. For example, to treat an infected wound, Manuka Honey has to come in direct contact with the bacteria that is causing the infection. Manuka Honey doesn't work the same way that antibiotics do, so for some uses, Manuka Honey needs to be applied to the skin.

If the idea of putting honey on your skin is not desirable, a Long Island-based manufacturer of skin care products called Honeymark imports Manuka Honey from New Zealand and blends it into their products for a much more user-friendly application. For example, Manuka Honey is effective in treating Athlete's Foot. However, smearing Manuka Honey all over your foot might be somewhat uncomfortable and impractical. Honeymark's Anti-Fungal Solution contains Manuka Honey but is a liquid-based product so that it can be easily applied to the skin, without the sticky mess.

"Using honey as a medicine is no longer considered a home remedy," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Even though honey has been used for medical purposes in many cultures for thousands of years, Manuka Honey from New Zealand has been found to have additional healing properties not found in other types of honey, making it a viable treatment alternative to expensive, and in some cases, ineffective medication."

Honeymark plans to increase its line of Manuka Honey skin care products in the first quarter of 2009. Such new products will include a Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash and Moisturizing Hand and Body Lotion, all of which will contain Manuka Honey. Honeymark also plans on releasing their own brand of pure Manuka Honey for consumers interested in utilizing Manuka Honey for internal purposes.

Honeymark Launches New Anti-Wrinkle Serum with Manuka Honey

New York-based skin care manufacturer introduces their first cosmetic product, an anti-aging system containing their signature ingredient, Manuka Honey.

Honey has been used for cosmetic purposes going back as far as Cleopatra, who used to mix it with milk and apply it to her face. Recent studies suggest that Manuka Honey, a premium honey produced in the New Zealand region, has an even greater effect on the skin than other types of honey. It has been discovered that high doses of healing nutrients found in this honey such as B-vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and enzymes play a key role in reversing cell damage and aging.

Manuka honey contains antioxidants that heal, repair and nourish the skin, making it look and feel younger, smoother and healthier. The rejuvenating properties found in Manuka Honey help in the regeneration of collagen and elastin. It helps reduce lines and wrinkles and helps the skin retain more moisture so that it doesn't appear to be dry or flaky.

It has also been found that Manuka Honey helps the skin's cell renewal process. This means younger looking skin cells are more readily available. It creates stronger collagen protein which helps keep skin youthful and supple. In addition, Manuka Honey contains natural antiseptic qualities that heal scratches or sores that may be present on the surface of the skin. The antioxidants present in Manuka Honey protect against free radicals in the environment.

As Manuka Honey penetrates deeply into the skin, it nourishes and rejuvenates, making the skin feel and look softer and younger. Free radicals damage collagen fibers responsible for keeping skin firm and tight. Manuka Honey strengthens collagen, destroys the radicals and improves the skins elasticity giving the appearance of younger-looking skin. Manuka Honey is so effective as a natural healing agent, it has even been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acne, eczema, bacterial and fungal infections.

In addition to Manuka Honey, Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum contains other valuable anti-aging ingredients, such as Matrixyl, Retinol and Collagen.

Matrixyl contains polypeptides called matrikines, that restructure and repair the skin. They stimulate collagen production by jump-starting the skin repair process, causing significant improvements in elasticity and skin tone. Matrixyl is an amazing breakthrough in skin care, providing a significant anti-wrinkle and skin lifting effect. It actually penetrates the skin to repair and stimulate collagen production, leading to smoother, more radiant skin. After only two months of using Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum, customers will experience a 45% decrease in wrinkle depth, 250% increase in collagen production and 15% improvement in skin tone.

Retinol is a Vitamin A derivative that repairs and stimulates collagen and elastin, creating firmer, smoother skin. Its small molecular structure allows it to penetrate the outer layers of the skin and repairs the lower layers of the skin where collagen and elastin exist. Retinol also increases skin cell turnover and exfoliation, drastically reducing age spots and blotches on the skin.

Collagen is a major structural protein that makes up 75% of the skin. It stimulates the formation of new collagen fibrils, leading to skin regeneration. At the same time elasticity is improved, helping to smooth wrinkles on the face and neck.

"We have combined the best anti-aging ingredients for a truly unique age reversing system," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Our Anti-Wrinkle Serum significantly outperforms other higher priced products containing ingredients that are damaging to the skin."

Manuka Honey Products by Honeymark

A New York-based manufacturer of skin care products has developed a unique line of products containing Manuka Honey, which is a natural ingredient from New Zealand that has been found to have extraordinary healing properties.

Honey has long been considered a natural remedy when used topically on the skin. It has now been discovered that a particular type of honey produced by bees that use nectar from the Manuka bush (indigenous to New Zealand) has even more healing benefits than other types of honey. Manuka Honey is now being used to eliminate acne, wrinkles, eczema, muscle and joint pain, bacterial and fungal infections, etc.

Unlike many pharmaceuticals, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes. However, like all honey, Manuka Honey is sticky and can be somewhat unmanageable when applied to the skin. Honeymark has eliminated that inconvenience by blending this valuable ingredient into medicated creams and lotions for a much more desirable and user-friendly application.

Manuka Honey is successful in treating such a wide variety of skin conditions because it is antimicrobial, meaning that it can destroy infectious microorganisms including bacterial, viral and fungal microbes. Microscopic analysis has revealed that these infectious microorganisms cannot survive in the presence of Manuka Honey. Therefore, all skin conditions caused by them can be effectively treated by using Manuka Honey. Once the microbes are destroyed, the symptoms are alleviated.

Honeymark has developed products based upon years of research and anecdotal evidence of Manuka Honey being effective in treating certain conditions. In addition to active Manuka Honey, Honeymark products also contain other ingredients that are effective in treating the various conditions that each product is specially formulated for. Below is a list of Honeymark's Manuka Honey products:

  • Acne Cream
  • Anti-Fungal Solution
  • Anti-Itch Cream
  • Antiseptic Spray
  • Anti-Wrinkle Serum
  • First Aid Antiseptic Lotion
  • Hand Sanitizing Gel
  • Liquid Hand Soap
  • Pain Relief Cream

Among Manuka Honey's many accolades is its ability to destroy the deadly MRSA bacterium and heal Staph infections. Manuka Honey has the ability to draw moisture out of MRSA bacterial cells, making it impossible for them to survive. MRSA has become impervious to antibiotics by clumping together and forming biofilms that act as a protective layer. However, Manuka Honey interferes with the bacterial cell division cycle that allows MRSA to multiply and form these biofilms, making it a viable treatment solution for MRSA Staph infections.

Manuka Honey's ability to eradicate MRSA is now being considered a major medical breakthrough. Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is the product that is being used to effectively treat MRSA. Their Hand Sanitizing Gel, Antiseptic Spray and Liquid Hand Soap can be used as preventative measures by eliminating bacteria on the skin.

"Manuka Honey is nature's best kept secret," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Although, consumers are becoming more educated about different treatment options thanks to the Internet. Consumers are also feeling more comfortable with products that contain natural ingredients instead of the laundry list of side effects that come with the use of many pharmaceuticals."

Honeymark plans to unveil new Manuka Honey products in the future. In addition to its line of skin care products, Honeymark also sells Manuka Honey in a jar for individuals who want to take advantage of its healing benefits internally. When taken orally, Manuka Honey is effective in treating stomach ulcers, stomach aches, sore throats, cold and flu symptoms, gastritis, irritable bowl syndrome, acid reflux disease, etc.
