Whether you’re looking for a mild, everyday immune boost or a powerful, medicinal-grade honey for treating infections, there’s a suitable option for everyone. Choose the MGO rating based on your specific needs. The higher the activity, the stronger the impacts and effectiveness of manuka honey as a medicinal food.
What sets manuka honey apart from regular honey, is its non-peroxide activity (NPA). Manuka honey takes a few months or so to “cure”, to reach its potential (up to 24 months!). This value is measured by a rating of MGO – “methylglyoxal”. Generally speaking, the higher the rating of MGO, the stronger the ability to kill off bad bacteria and viruses.
