Manuka Health, Manuka Honey, Mgo 573, (500 G)

Delicious honey and seems effective in building immunities.

I suffer from a medical condition and GERD. Unfortunately the GERD prescriptions (Protonix, Omeprazole) causes a bad reaction with my other meds, so I can't take either one. This Manuka Health Honey has been a lifesaver to control my GERD. I have a cup of organic chamomile tea mixed with a teaspoon of Manuka Health Manuka Honey. I drink this 2-3 time per day. I find this strength of 550+ to be the best, though I have also used 400+ strength as well and it has worked. For me, using natural remedies has worked better than chemicals, since often I get side effects from meds. My aunt suffers from IC, so she also started using Manuka honey with chamomile tea. The Manuka honey has made a difference with her IC, so she can occasionally have foods that she couldn't have before, since they would cause a flare. This honey has worked for both of us, but everybody is different. I suggest you buy a smaller size and try it out to see if it helps your condition. Since it works for us, we find buying the larger jar to be more economical, since the health food stores where I live only stock the smaller jars. Amazon is the only place that stocks the larger sizes, plus I get free shipping, as opposed to buying it elsewhere. Manuka Honey has been useful for all types of medical conditions, internal and external. I have heard it is good for certain skin conditions, but it's best to do research before using it. For me, it was the only thing that helped my GERD.

The honey is exactly how I would expect it. It has a nice texture and the health benefits you would expect from Manuka honey. The strength of MGO 573 is pretty great and it is easy on the stomach. Of course, the nutritional value with a lot of sugar is expected of honey. Easy on digestion!

I absolutely will not be without Manuka Health UMF 16+/MGO 573+ Manuka Honey in our household. So many positive health effects from this wonderful Manuka Honey, and it is absolutely delicious! Fabulous tasting by the spoonful, in hot tea, or drizzled over fruit, oatmeal, or other food. Makes a nourishing face mask applied directly to my face and neck area, and left on for 30 minutes. I love being able to scan the jar's bar code to obtain the honey's Certificate of Authenticity. So much interesting information on the Certificate! I highly recommend Manuka Health UMF 16+/MGO 573+ Manuka Honey.

repeat purchase, but first time through Amazon - i bumped up to 573 MGO this time. i love honeys, and this is the best ever !!
