Sept. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- Loganholme, AU – September 12, 2011

Long ago in the ancient civilization, the use of manuka honey was an integral part of any therapeutic usage. In fact, queens and princess were stated to use them in various beauty therapies. The popularity of the nectar was then lost with the advent of synthetic antibiotic like penicillin. However, the use of manuka honey in natural skin care and ailments of the body has risen tremendously in recent times.

The popularity of the natural substance has increased yet again due to the powerful properties that the ingredient possesses. It not only works on minor ailments of the body like cuts, wounds, sores but also has a major effect in curing inflamed skin, eczema, psoriasis and more.
Manuka honey is one of the most powerful ingredients found in nature. It is only found in New Zealand and certain parts of Australia. The nectar is a byproduct of bees which specifically extract honey from the manuka shrubs. The difference between normal honey and manuka honey is that the former gets diluted easily and loses its properties; however the later remains active over 100 times even when diluted.  

The people of New Zealand and Australia have been using this component in their diet and for therapeutic usage. It is used in tea, dressings, foods and even for garnishing. The honey here is stated to have extremely high level of antioxidants and bacterial properties which is known as the UMF. This UMF has been graded according to the level of antioxidants and antibiotics that the nectar contains. The higher the UMF or unique manuka factor the greater is its potency to heal. For topical uses the nectar that has UMF 16 or higher is preferred. A UMF of at least 10 is crucial for the nectar to be graded as active manuka honey.

For facial care, manuka honey is an excellent moisturizer. It also works well on skin problems like acne, blemishes and patchiness. Manuka facial mask is also gaining immense popularity due to its effects in cleaning and scrubbing the skin thoroughly. The natural skin care therapies of manuka honey are considered as the most efficient formulation in skin care in the present times.
