Active Ingredients / Key Components:
- Pure New Zealand manuka honey – 250 g per jar.
- Methylglyoxal (MGO) – certified minimum 263+ mg/kg (antibacterial activity indicator).
- Other naturally occurring components (typical of manuka honey) such as leptosperin, DHA, and phenolic antioxidants (exact concentrations not specified by the manufacturer).
- No added sugars, flavors, colorants, or preservatives (based on typical manuka honey composition; specific additive information not provided on this product listing).
Dosage & Administration / How to Use:
- Oral daily use (adults): Commonly 1–2 teaspoons (approximately 5–10 g) once or twice daily. Can be taken directly from the spoon or mixed into warm (not hot) beverages or foods. Exact recommended dose is not specified by the manufacturer; follow label instructions if available.
- Children over 1 year: Typically 1/2–1 teaspoon once or twice daily, as advised by a healthcare professional. Do not give honey to children under 1 year of age.
- For throat soothing: Slowly dissolve 1 teaspoon in the mouth, allowing it to coat the throat. Repeat as needed within normal daily intake limits.
- For digestive support: Take 1 teaspoon on an empty stomach 30 minutes before meals, once or twice daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider.
- Topical use (minor skin issues): Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer of honey and cover with a sterile dressing if needed. Change dressing 1–2 times daily. Always consult a healthcare professional before using honey on wounds or burns.
- Culinary use: Add to yogurt, oatmeal, smoothies, or spread on toast. Avoid adding to boiling liquids; allow drinks to cool slightly (below about 40°c) before stirring in honey to help preserve its natural properties.
- Duration of use: Can be used daily as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. For persistent symptoms or chronic conditions, seek medical advice.

Warnings & Contraindications:
- Not suitable for infants under 1 year of age due to the risk of infant botulism associated with all types of honey.
- Use with caution in individuals with known allergy to honey, bee products, or pollen; discontinue immediately if any allergic reaction occurs.
- People with diabetes or those on blood sugar–lowering medications should consult a doctor or dietitian before regular use, as honey is a source of natural sugars and may affect blood glucose levels.
- Individuals with severe or infected wounds, burns, or skin conditions should not rely on home treatment with honey alone; seek medical attention for appropriate wound care.
- Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have medical conditions such as diabetes, severe gastrointestinal disease, or immune disorders.
- Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

- Gastrointestinal discomfort such as bloating, gas, or loose stools may occur if consumed in excessive amounts.
