## Description

A golden superfood, straight from New Zealand, Manuka Honey is one of nature’s most complex creations. Manuka honey is made exclusively by bees who consume the nectar of Manuka blossoms, a plant whose properties are what make Manuka honey so special. Wedderspoon believes that Mother Nature knows best, which is why we don’t process, age, heat, or manipulate our KFactor honey. We allow our bees to roam freely through remote terrain on New Zealand's South Island and feast on wild Manuka blossoms, then we cream our honey fresh so it tastes like Manuka should. The result is Manuka honey brimming with a unique and creamy taste and full of living enzymes and antioxidants to empower your daily wellness.

Review: Honey - Manuka honey is a high-quality product with a thick texture and a richer flavor than regular honey. It has a slightly herbal taste, but it is pleasant and natural. You can really notice the purity and quality. I like to use it in tea, with yogurt, or even by itself in the morning. It is also well known for its beneficial properties, especially for soothing the throat and supporting the immune system. Since I started using it, it has been helpful when I have mild throat discomfort. Although it is more expensive than regular honey, it is worth the price because of its quality and benefits. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a natural and healthy option.
Review: This is a great tasting raw honey with a mountain of healing benifits - This is a great tasting raw honey with a mountain of healing benifits. It's a bit pricey but we'll worth the money. Here are some Manuka Honey Nutrition Facts: What makes wedderspoon Manuka honey different is its amazing nutritional profile. Regular raw honey is already known for its tremendous nutritional and immune boosting abilities. Generally speaking, the typical raw unfiltered honey is a rich source of: (2) Amino acidsB vitamins (B6, thiamin, niacin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid), Calcium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium ,Manganese, Phosphoru, potassium, Sodium and Zinc Yet with Manuka honey, the nutritional content is up to 4 timesthat of normal flower honeys. This is what is called the Unique Manuka Factor. Unique Manuka Factor In 1981, researchers at the New Zealand University of Waikato discovered that Manuka honey has a considerably higher level of enzymes than regular honey. These enzymes create a natural hydrogen peroxide that works as an antibacterial. Some strains of this New Zealand honey are particularly rich in hydrogen peroxide, methylglyoxal and dihydroxyacetone. This medicinal trilogy helps make up what is referred to as the Unique Manuka Factor (UMF), a global standard in identifying and measuring the antibacterial strength of Manuka. (3) Essentially, the UMF is a guarantee that the honey being sold is of a medicinal quality. UMF is not found in the nectar of all Manuka flowers and, comparatively speaking, regular Manuka only contains the hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property that is common to most types of honey. What separates UMF Manuka from other Manuka varieties is that it has both the natural hydrogen peroxide and its own natural UMF antibacterial property, which greatly enhances it effectiveness. The UMF properties of Manuka is extremely stable and, unlike the hydrogen peroxide common in most honey, is not easily destroyed by heat, light and enzymes in the body. How to Verify Genuine UMF Manuka Honey The minimum UMF rating recognized is UMF5, however, it is not considered beneficial unless it carries a UMF 10+ level of antibacterial activity in the honey. Anything ranging from UMF10-UMF15 is a useful level, and anything UMF16 and up is considered a superior quality. Genuine UMF Manuka Honey will have these four things: It will have a UMF trademark clearly labeled on the front of the container.It will be from a New Zealand UMF licensed company and labelled in New Zealand.It will have the UMF company’s name and license number on the label.It will have a UMF rating number of 5-16+. If it is labeled without the UMF or without a number, then it is not the genuine article. According to the UMF association the UMF rating actually tests the antibacterial performance of a honey and compares it to phenol, a disinfectant. The Active Manuka Honey Association(AMHA) that does the testing states: “The presence of the special non-peroxide activity can be detected only by an array of scientific testing directly relating to the phenol standard. The rating has a one-to-one relationship to the phenol standard. “ This means that a UMF rating of 20+ is equivalent in strength to a 20% solution of phenol. The ideal UMF rating varies depending on your purpose, but laboratory studies have shown that manuka honey with a non-peroxide activity level of UMF12 to UMF15 is effective against a wide range of very resistant bacteria. Here is an explanation of what manuka honey UMF you should use: 0-4 Non-therapeutic 4-9 Maintenance level with general honey health benefits 10-14 Supports natural healing and bacterial balance 15+ Superior levels of phenols that are highly therapeutic but shouldn’t exceed taking 1 tbsp at a time Top 10 Manuka Honey Benefits Manuka honey health benefits have been touted in the natural health world for a long time and even more in recent years because a growing body of research is starting to support thousands of years of folk medicine use. Some of the top Manuka honey uses are: 1. SIBO, Low Stomach Acid, Acid Reflux Small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), low stomach acid and acid reflux go hand-in-hand. Because of Manuka honey’s known natural antibiotic qualities, it is a great medicine for any bacteria related disorder. In fact, in a recent study, one dangerous bacteria related to all three conditions, Clostridium difficult was found to be quite susceptible to Manuka honey’s bactericidal effects. (4) So taking Manuka honey is very beneficial at reducing reflux and balancing your digestive system to heal stomach and intestinal imbalances. 2. Acne and Eczema The Internet is filled with patient testimonials that Manuka honey works marvelously for acne and eczema patients. At this time there are no clinical trials to support these claims, but this doesn’t bother me at all. Taking into account its proven antimicrobial and healing properties, it makes every bit of sense to assume that honey can help with these skin conditions. Most people claim that applying honey on affected areas for a few minutes, and then washing off with gentle soap and water usually does the trick. Repeat this every day or every other day for the best results! 3. Staph Infections (MRSA) You’ve probably heard of the super bug that has plagued hospitals the past several years, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (or MRSA). What has happened is that antibiotic overuse and drug ineffectiveness has caused certain strains of Staph to become virtually indefensible using typical hospital and nursing home medical protocols. Spreading so rapidly, most people affected by MRSA end up getting so infected that they require invasive procedures or devices such as surgeries, artificial joints or intervenes tubing to save their lives (5) This past March, however, UK researchers from Cardiff Metropolitan University have offered us some natural hope. They discovered thatManuka honey down-regulates the most potent genes of the MRSA bacteria. Some scientists now suggest that regular topical use on cuts and infections (especially in the hospital and nursing home setting) may keep MRSA naturally at bay. 4. Burns, Wounds & Ulcers According to a recent article in theJundishapur Journal of Natural Pharmaceutical Products, “The use of honey leads to improved wound healing in acute cases, pain relief in burn patients and decreased inflammatory response in such patients.” (6) Moreover, because of its rich anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory characteristics, Manuka honey has been shown to prevent infection in people with venous ulcers. (7) It has also been used quite effectively as a wound dressing to promote rapid, improved healing. 5. Tooth Decay & Gingivitis Several studies have come out recently describing how Manuka honey can help cure gingivitis and periodontal disease. Due to its superior antimicrobial properties, researchers from the School of Dentistry, University of Otago (Dunedin, New Zealand) discovered that chewing or sucking on a Manuka honey product not only caused a 35% decrease in plaque, it led to a 35% reduction in bleeding sites in people suffering from gingivitis! (8) Also calcium, zinc, and phosphorus are all important nutrients for healing teeth. 6. IBS and IBD When evaluating the effect that Manuka honey has on experimentally induced inflammatory bowel disease in rats, researchers from Chandigarh Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research discovered several astounding findings: (9) Manuka honey at different doses provided protection against TNBS-induced colonic damage.There was significant protection with Manuka honey 5 g/kg as well as with 10 g/kg body weight compared with the control.All the treated groups showedreduced colonic inflammation and all the biochemical parameters were significantly reduced compared with the control in the Manuka honey treated groups.Manuka honey at different dosesrestored lipid peroxidation as well as improved antioxidant parameters. Morphological and histological scores were significantly reduced in the low dose Manuka honey treated group.In the inflammatory model of colitis, oral administration of Manuka honey 5 g/kg and Manuka honey 10 g/kg body weight significantly reduced the colonic inflammation. So Manuka honey not only healed intestinal inflammation and pain, but also repaired free radical damage, and protected against further damage! 7. Sore Throats and Immunity In 2007, data published in the Journal of Leukocyte Biology suggested that, “A 5.8-kDa component of Manuka honey stimulates immune cells via TLR4.” (10) This is interesting because previous studies have indicated that honey stimulates cytokine production from human monocytes. Coupling with this 2011 research showing how Manuka stops the growth of sore throat-causing Strepbacteria, it is no wonder that so many people benefit almost instantly from taking a spoonful of honey when they don’t feel well. (11) And recently it has even been approved by the National Cancer Institute to be used to heal inflammation in the throat from chemotherapy! 8. Allergies and Sinusitis There are many anecdotal accounts of people receiving allergy relief after eating honey are all over the internet. There is even a study with honey and birch pollen that had remarkable results. The participants were given regular honey, honey with birch pollen added to it, and some used only their allergy medicines as a control group. The results were impressive: “…patients reported a 60% lower total symptom score, twice as many asymptomatic days, and 70% fewer days with severe symptoms, and they used 50% less antihistamines compared to the control group.” They also found that there was very little difference between the birch pollen honey users and the regular honey users! So, taking Manuka honey on a regular basis can really help your seasonal allergies and lessen your need for medications!(12) 9. Beauty Treatment & Health Booster Taken daily Manuka honey has an elixir effect that boosts energy and enhances your quality of life.Because of its nutrient dense profile, it boosts vitality, youthful energy, and has been known to improve skin tone and texture. Use it in a homemade face wash to exfoliate and fight free radicals in the skin. Use it in your shampoo or a hair mask, to boost the shine of your hair. One of my favorite uses is in a detox drink, to get the most benefits inside and out! 10. Improves Sleep Manuka Honey helps to promote restful deep sleep. It slowly releases the glycogen needed for essential bodily functions during sleep. Adding honey to milk at bedtime helps the body release melatonin into the brain which is necessary for deep sleep. There are many health disorders associated with poor sleep such as, heart disease, type II diabetes, stroke, and arthritis. Since honey is proven to aid in quality sleep; it also helps lower the risk of these and many other heath problems. This raw Manuka honey gets 5 stars and a strong recommendation to buy as it has help me and my family in soooo many ways. ****** If you enjoyed my review please vote this review as helpful and feel free to ask me any additional questions and I'll answer them to the best of my abilities.

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2022
Flavor Name: KFactor 16Size: 1.1 Pound (Pack of 1)
Though the company makes no claims of UMF and rates 16 on pollen it's my understanding that in order to label as Manuka it must contain at least rank an 83 on the scale. Bees and trees sent this for a blind lab test. The lab had no idea what brand of honey they were testing. The results came back showing that the MG level was a very low 52. The equivalent UMF rating for MG 52 is…well…it doesn’t exist. What this means is that the level of MG in the honey was so low that it doesn’t even rank on the scale. The UMF/MG rating scale starts at MG 83.

**Q: What does the kfactor number mean?**
A: Hello,

Thank you for your interest in our products, we appreciate it.

It is important to note that the UMF Honey Association is a trade association made of voluntary paid membership, and is not a regulatory authority in New Zealand.  As a trade association, they have their own honey grading system that their members must follow.  Both the UMF rating system and our KFactor system have been deemed compliant for use by the NZ regulatory authority.  Because the rating systems are internal standards, comparison of the two is not a transparent exercise.

The regulatory authority in New Zealand, the Ministry of Primary Industries, has recently released the regulatory definition of Manuka honey, which will come into law from 5 February 2018.  This is the result of many years of scientific research to find stable markers that can be easily and quickly replicated in the laboratory environment.  Unfortunately, pollen analysis was not included because this requires specialist knowledge to differentiate the pollen. However, they have included a DNA test to prove floral origin as an easily replicated laboratory test.

The markers used by the UMF association of Leptosperin, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), and Methylglyoxal (MGO) were not included into the regulatory definition due to stability and other issues undisclosed by the regulatory authority.

The regulatory definition includes 4 chemical markers with varying threshold levels, and the DNA test.  A sample must meet all 5 test standards to be considered (and labelled) as Manuka honey.  More information can be found on the regulatory website here:  http://www.mpi.govt.nz/growing-and-harvesting/honey-and-bees/manuka-honey/

Please check out our website for updates and new products this year and if you’d like to try some samples, please email me back your shipping address.

We hope this helps to clarify the answers to your questions, as we realize that the lack of a regulatory definition until now has created a high amount of confusion in the consumer market.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really tasty!
*by L***N on January 26, 2026*

I like the quality of this honey, and raw honey is the best! It's a bit pricey, but honestly, the amount in the jar outweighs it simply because you cannot consume a lot in one use...maybe 2x's a day. It is very sweet, but that is the nature of Manuka. The floral notes are light and blend wonderfully into either my coffee or tea. Even just taking a bite off my spoon is heaven as the texture is smooth and thick and coats the throat nicely when swallowing. It's a great feeling when your throat is sore or dry.
