UMF Honey is a great tasting honey product that contains the special 'X Factor' known as UMF. We recommend that you buy this Manuka Honey direct from New Zealand to ensure that you receive the genuine product. The following online stores are leading suppliers of Manuka Honey and deliver worldwide.
The UMF or Unique Manuka Factor is a measurement of the antibacterial activity of the Manuka honey. The higher the rating the higher the antibacterial activity. The UMF ratings usually range from a low of UMF 5 to a high of UMF 30. UMF Manuka Honey below UMF10 is recommended for maintaining good digestion and general health. For heartburn, indigestion and diarrhoea we recommend UMF10 to UMF 15. Manuka Honey UMF 20 and UMF 25 can be used to treat gastroenteritis, stomach/peptic ulcers, duodenal ulcers, oesophagus ulcers, acid reflux heartburn, Irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, H. pylori and up-set stomach. To treat external conditions use any Active Manuka Honey above UMF10.
