Seit jeher übt die Biene eine besondere Faszination auf den Menschen aus, was zu eingehenden Untersuchungen der von diesen außerordentlich nützlichen Insekten erzeugten Stoffe geführt hat. Über die Jahrhunderte hinweg entwickelte sich der Bienenhonig von einem simplen süßen Genussmittel zu einem vielseitig geschätzten Allheilmittel, das sowohl präventiv als auch therapeutisch bei einer Vielzahl von Erkrankungen und gesundheitlichen Beschwerden Anwendung findet.
Honey from the manuka
Honey is produced by insects of the Apis genus from the nectar of the New Zealand manuka tree. The term manuka comes from the Māori language and means tea tree. It is interesting to note that the English sailor, and at the same time the explorer of the Australian continent Captain James Cook, probably drank the vapor from the leaves of the evergreen manuka bushes.
The properties of manuka honey
This compound is found in the nectar of the tea tree (Leptospermum scopanum). Other biologically active compounds called polyphenols are also responsible for the unique properties of this honey. Due to the presence of flavonoids and phenolic acids, honey, especially dark, including manuka honey, is characterized by the ability to change its free roots, thus reducing the risk of serious diseases of the genitourinary system (neurodegenerative: Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's Disease, viral infections, stroke, aging) [2].
Use of manuka honey
New Zealand manuka honey has strong antibacterial effects on, amongst others, the most difficult wounds to heal (Pseudomonas aeruginosa), the golden yellow fever (Staphylococcus aureus), the coronary artery (Escherichia coli), and many other bacteria that attack the human body. Manuka honey is an excellent antidote because it speeds up the healing process of wounds (tab. 1), even the hardest to treat. Treatments with the honey additive also appear to be more effective than traditional manuka oil additive treatment with hydrochloric acid.[1] In addition, these specific treatments have shown that it is difficult to treat the infection of the manuka virus, and can be used as an anti-inflammatory agent.
Honey manuka is an opinion
Manuka honey, as a natural honey bee working product, is a completely safe and relatively effective product for people with diabetes to use in both the fight against and the prevention of many diseases faced by the human body. Manuk honey, like our other varieties of honey, should be consumed fast, preferably early in the morning, 20~30 minutes before meals, in the amount of 2~3 teaspoons of tea (they will contain 7 g of honey).
