User questions & answers

Question:	What does the kfactor number mean
Answer:	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. We can be reached Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm EST our toll-free number is 877-296-8403, or email me at [email protected] with any additional questions. Thank you,

User questions & answers

Question:	Do this have to be refrigerated after opening
Answer:	Absolutely not necessary to keep it in refrigerator. That is the major point of having MGO certified Manuka Honey - Methylglyoxal is a self preserving natural antibiotic that grows the potency unstoppable when stored above 50F ( 10C). Therefore, if you bought MGO400 in 2015 over 1 year your honey could show MGO550 at lab test. Since this year FDA allowed manufacturers do not print expiration day on Manuka Honey MGO, only the date of the production.
Question:	Is the jar made of plastic or glass? I have to check them in at the airport, need to make sure they are not easy to break
Answer:	You will definitely have a problem at the airport. I forgot mine in my carry on and had to quickly decant it into smaller bottles or lose the whole batch. Check the airport requirements or place in checked bag.
Question:	Where is the Proof that this is Pure Manuka Honey? Where is the UMF license
Answer:	If there is no visible proof then try using it. My wife was bedridden for 7 years. I bought Manuka honey (it was rated 16+ and I believe was when they just created the standard) anyway Nurses, doctors all were blown away because I showed them all that their methods are crap. In less than two weeks we were able to completely heal her bed sore. We never let it become a horror as I know happens in places but you get those expensive wound bandages and put the honey and then seal it in for a few days. Change it and clean the wound at least every two days if air gets to it or daily and just use gauze if it is in a place that gets wet etc. Even two or three times a day we had to change it when it was in a bad place. If you can seal it in with those bandages designed to keep the wound moist I had incredible results with a few healing in a week with only two or three changes. Of course everyone is different. I unluckily cannot vouch for this brand but I can Vouch for manuka honey working just amazing on bed sores. I had a doctor come to the house to see the results and from then on he made house calls to care for my wife. God bless him. She is gone now but Manuka honey made her life so much better. She had no more long lasting bed sores once we used Manukahoneyusa.com. I am in no way pushing that brand and do not know if it is superior than any others but I assure you that what I bought, BACK THEN (5 + years ago) worked. Life saver. I cannot say if this was the reason but something helped her keep her spirits up. She was an angel, never complained and never was nasty etc and she had serious issues. Could not move on her own at all except to talk and help hold a cup that you held for her yet still she would sing in bed. Sorry but I was blessed to have such a wonderful wife for 30 years.
Question:	Dr Weil recommends Active UMF 20+ Manuka Honey. Does anyone know if this is the same or similar? Tx
Answer:	MGO stands for Methylglyoxal content( concentration) in mg. per 1 kg of honey. It was discovered in Drezden University in 2006. You can Google it on your own. For my understanding it is much easier to comprehend about Manuka Honey grade scale when I do operate with milligrams per kilo and not by mythical and meaningless digits provided by Unique Manuka Factor Association - a commercial Association charging their members with annual fees. Not a single distributor is capable to explain you about what their digits mean while MGO standard is openly understandable. Lets think about Octane number in our gas and Cetane number in our diesel in comparison with UMF and MGO digits. What Octane numbers such as 87,91, 92 mean ? And what Cetane number 40 means in diesel fuel ? Well Octane numbers and Cetane number are scientifically and laboratory proven amount of energy your engine could "squeeze" from burning 1 cubic inch of such fuel. Cetane number is different. In fact, you can name Octane number gas 87 as REGULAR and 91 as Silver and 92 as Premium, but in fact, they still remain 87.91 and 92 Octane energy delivery scientific numbers. That is why I have learn that some manufacturers are in favor to pay UMF association fees for be much flexible with customer's conscience manipulation because any laboratory test will give you a result something in tangible measurements like mg, liters, ml, atm, etc. UMF grading system is a most confusable system but more popular among customers. Now you can make your own decision about what grade of Manuka Honey you want to consume : a precise proven and tested in laboratory(MGO) or a grade system coming from 1906 year when UMF has been founded.

User questions & answers

Question:	When i'm trying to find the Batch number it says error and the code on the lid is not found either when i scan it.Is this honey fake
Answer:	I don't think Amazon had their version when I purchased my APC about 4-5 months ago. Amazon has leading companies make their product with the Amazon Brand. I have used The Amazon Brands and would have purchased it instead of the APC. My requirements were: 12 Outlets and 4,000 Joules to protect my Computer Set Up and Smart TV. James F.
Question:	When i'm trying to find the Batch number it says error and the code on the lid is not found either when i scan it.Is this honey fake
Answer:	Assuming that you are inquiring about the max operating Wattage the answer is 1800W. The unit has a built in 15Amp overload breaker that will trip if the load becomes excessive.
Question:	Is it monofloral
Answer:	no. this is a surge protector, not a battery backup.
Question:	Is this the same umf 20 criteria level that dr. weil recommends for manuka honey regarding mrsa
Answer:	The APC has (2) USB ports that provide 2.4Amps of charging power, 4320 Joules surge protection and a Lifetime warranty and $300,000 connected equipment protection policy! Besides that, it has a green "ON" light that glows in the dark. James F.

User questions & answers

Question:	What was the outcome of the lawsuit claiming that the honey is heated and having syrup mixed in
Answer:	Here's more on the story. They don't report an outcome of the suit. https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/consumer-products/food/881041-nature-nates-class-action-says-100-raw-honey-mislabeled/
Question:	Is this honey pasteurized
Answer:	Victoria Cooper, the "Manufacturer" said in the first response that their honey "hasn't been heated". But the advertising above says the honey is "warmed". It is very telling that they don't tell you what temperature the honey is exposed to, or for how long. ANY added heat, for ANY length of time will start to degrade the beneficial enzymes that naturally occur in honey. So, is this a play on words, or are they trying to mislead you? They won't definitively answer this question.
Question:	Is this made in the USA from USA bees
Answer:	When I first started buying nates it always said 100% american. Then they started with USA & Canada. I tried the organic and HATED it. In not sure where it was from. I have never gotten a regular bottle from anywhere outside of canada & usa. Usually if they try to sneak it by they MUST list where the product is from. They will usually post a little 2 letter country code. Usually in very small print on the back.
Question:	If it's made by american bees, why does the description say "imported from brazil?" do the american bees live in brazil
Answer:	Play on words is what companies do. There's an olive oil grower, USA, that makes an American Blend. In fine print it discloses 50% California grown, and 50% Brazilian & Peru. It is an American blend.... from North AND South America. The same with this honey company's description... it is made by American bees... South American. Marketing keeps us on our toes. ;-)

• BENEFITS Manuka Honey is one of nature’s powerful wonders, revered by naturopathic doctors, nutritionists and elite athletes.

• MANUKA RATINGS AND ORIGIN We agree, it’s quite confusing! There is a vast range of quality and efficacy between Manuka Honeys. Some brands promote labeling terms like “Factors” or “Bio-Active” with numbers like 12, 16 or “24+”. These products lack independent quality standards to ensure purity, potency, and value. Make sure to look for the UMF quality mark, and like Champagne comes from France, true Manuka comes from New Zealand.

Question:	how do i decide which umf? are there any published data

Answer:	Yes,it's missing about 1/8 at the top.But,it is such an amazing effective product ,I'm willing to let it go.
Question:	Are you supposed to warm this to apply it to skin? It's very thick and I need to spread it on her arm. I'm a newbie to this stuff, thanks
Answer:	Very gentle warming would make it more fluid but don't heat it or the activity would be destroyed. Depending on the application you have in mind there may be better options.

Question:	You say it is "manuka" honey which designates a certain nz bush or is "jellybush" the same plant just the "normal" rivalry between nz and aussies
Answer:	Within the Leptosermum Genus, 'Jelly bush' honey comes from the Aussie Leptospermum polygalifolium, which is a different species from Leptospermum scoparium, from which you get ' manuka' honey. Yup, some overlap & similarities, BUT they are still different species & products ..... draw your own conclusions
Question:	I read that real manuka honey is thick, Why is this manuka honey thin like regular honey
Answer:	Hello, New Zealand manuka honey is generally creamed, which involves heating the honey. Creaming is generally used in colder climates due to crystalization, however as this honey comes from a warmer climate, the process is not necessary. Our honey is not heated at any time. Thank you.

Product features

Good Natured's 100% Lab Certified Manuka Honey is one of the most established and trusted Manuka Honey for two main reasons:

Certified Lab Reports* - We are one of the few if only companies to post, as an image to the left of the main product image above, current lab reports that show the results of the strength of this honey. Whilst we label the honey at 820+, which is the equivalent of NPA 20+, the report actually shows activity that is higher than this, which means that the potency is extremely potent.

Value - We import directly from the manufacturer. There are no middlemen, distributors or wholesalers to increase the cost to the customer. We do this for one main reason. We strongly believe that the medicinal properties found in this honey should be made available to as many people as possible. Is the cost still too high? Yes it is, but as people start to realize the healing benefits of certified Manuka Honey, the demand grows worldwide, which increases the cost.

Every single batch of our honey is tested by independent laboratories*.

* As tested by Hill Laboratories, New Zealand, Nov 5, 2019 - see image on Product Page.

** Certified by the AMHA - Australian Manuka Honey Association, 2020

OUR HONEY

Active Medical Honey or medicinal honey is produced from Leptospermum plants found growing in both Australia and New Zealand. The honey from these plants has unique healing properties not found in other honeys.

100% RAW. We use cold extraction and organic production methods to ensure the special properties found in these honeys are preserved and maintained.

OUR BEES are managed naturally by organic standards without the use of sugar feeding, veterinary pharmaceuticals or chemicals.

BENEFITS OF MANUKA HONEY

Our manuka honey is known to improve wound healing by stimulating cytokine release, by keeping the wound area moist and by fighting bugs. It contains hydrogen peroxide releasing enzymes, methylglyoxal, bioflavanoids and phenolic compounds. Manuka honey has potent healing properties which enhance, protect and actively support the body’s own defenses. Typically, medical grade honey is used for wound care, as a digestive aid, for helping to relieve sore throats, stomach ulcers, pressure sores, infections and for treating burns. It is found in first aid kits, hospitals and doctor's surgeries.
