Manuka Health MGO™ Manuka Honey

MGO™ 550+ Manuka Honey has a naturally occuring minimum of 550mg/kg methylgyoxal content which is responsible for the remarkable properties in Manuka Honey.

Manuka Honey is collected from a plant that is unique to New Zealand – Leptospermum scoparium. The white flowers appear in spring and are much loved by the honey bees. Manuka flowers have a strong, aromatic fragrance and are full of the nectar which provides this dark, creamy honey.

Methylglyoxal - the unique compound in Manuka Honey

MGO™ Manuka Honey is labelled based on the minimum Methylglyoxal content (mg/kg) it contains. Methylglyoxal is the compound directly responsible for the remarkable properties of Manuka honey and the MGO™ rating clearly indicates the minimum level of this compound in each jar.  No other system of measurement gives such a clear and simple indication.  The higher the MGO™ rating the more Methylglyoxal content.
