Honeymark International has developed a First Aid Antiseptic Lotion containing Active Manuka Honey that is so effective against MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections that the manufacturer has issued a money-back guarantee.
No one is impervious to the resilient super-bug associated with deadly Staph infections. This infection can be acquired at schools, locker rooms, hospitals or basically anywhere within the community and can be fatal if entered into the bloodstream. In the past, doctors were able to treat most serious infections with the use of antibiotics. However, over the past 30 years of antibiotic use (or overuse), some strains of bacteria have mutated and developed a resistance to antibiotics. This has left the medical industry without a solution...until now.
There is a special type of honey that only comes from the New Zealand region that has been found to have extraordinary antibacterial properties not found in other types of honey. Manuka Honey has the ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells, making it impossible for them to survive. Manuka Honey has also been observed interfering with the bacterial cell division cycle, preventing the infection from spreading and basically stopping it dead in its tracks.
Honeymark International, a New York-based manufacturer of advanced skin care products has developed a line of products containing bio-active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. "There is no substance on the face of the planet that is more capable of destroying MRSA and healing Staph infections the way Manuka Honey can," says Frank Buonanotte, Honeymark's CEO. "Unlike antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals, Manuka Honey is a natural ingredient that has been found to have no negative side effects."
Manuka Honey's ability to eradicate MRSA is now being considered a major breakthrough within the medical industry and has gained worldwide recognition. Even doctors who are trained to believe in pharmaceuticals and usually frown upon natural alternatives are beginning to gain faith in the healing powers of Manuka Honey. "It just simply works," says Dr. Kenneth Johnson, a private practitioner on Long Island. "I've seen it with my own eyes. My patients go to the hospital for one thing and have come out with a Staph infection. After a short period of time, using a Manuka Honey-based dressing clears the infection very efficiently, where traditional forms of medicine had failed."
"Our First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is our best selling product, specifically because of its ability to heal MRSA Staph infections," says Buonanotte. "We have a money-back guarantee listed on our website that no one has accessed. It works every time."
Experts are now predicting that new strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria will begin to emerge in the future. To date, there have been no reports of any bacteria being able to develop a resistance to Manuka Honey and it is expected that there never will be. Bacteria simply cannot survive in the healing environment created by Manuka Honey.
In addition to Honeymark's Manuka Honey-based Antiseptic Lotion, the company has announced that it will be releasing new products that can be used as a preventative measure. Within the next few weeks, Honeymark will be introducing a Hand Sanitizing Gel, Antiseptic Spray and a Liquid Hand Soap, all of which contain Manuka Honey. These products can help to prevent individuals from becoming infected with MRSA.

MRSA Treatment with Manuka Honey
Even though MRSA has become resistant to most antibiotics, it is no match for the powerful antibacterial properties of Manuka Honey.
As data on the prevalence of MRSA continues to mount, hospitals are taking an aggressive approach in preventing the spread of this resilient infection. Statistics indicate that about 2 million patients develop infections while being treated in the hospital every year and 100,000 of them die from the infection.
According to the Center for Disease Control, the proportion of infections that are antimicrobial-resistant has been growing each year. In 1974, MRSA infections accounted for 2% of the total number of staph infections; in 1995 it was 22% and in 2004 it was 63%. In fact, a report issued by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control found that MRSA infections are 8.6 times more prevalent than previous estimates and that the antibiotic-resistant bacteria is found in all wards throughout most hospitals.
Studies show that 30-50% of the population carry MRSA on their bodies. The fact is, MRSA can coexist on the surface of the skin very harmoniously without causing any significant health complications. It's only when the bacteria penetrates the skin by way of a wound or puncture where it can become harmful.
Despite the grim reality of MRSA infecting our communities, there is a viable treatment solution. A special type of honey found in New Zealand and certain parts of Australia has proven to be effective in destroying this resilient bacterium. It's not so much the bees in this region that are special, rather than the flowers that grow on the Manuka bush. These flowers produce a unique nectar that contains extraordinary antibacterial properties. The bees use this nectar to create what has become known as Manuka Honey.
It has been discovered that Manuka Honey contains healing properties not found in other types of honey. Manuka Honey destroys MRSA by drawing moisture out of the bacterial cell, making it impossible for them to survive. This is very similar to what happens when you pour salt on a slug.
Honey is one of the only substances in the world that does not expire. Food spoil when bacteria begins to form on it. However, bacteria cannot survive in honey. Honey discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs that were preserved for over 4,000 years has even been found to be suitable for consumption. The absence of bacteria in honey is mostly due to the presence of hydrogen peroxide. In fact, before antibiotics were invented, honey was commonly used for medical purposes, particularly for dressing wounds.
A rating system administered by the Active Manuka Honey Association in New Zealand calculates the potency of Manuka Honey on a scale from 0-30. It is generally accepted that Manuka Honey with a UMF rating of 10 or higher is considered active and suitable for therapeutic use. The higher the UMF rating, the higher the antibacterial activity. However, patients have reported sensitivity to Manuka Honey with extraordinarily high UMF ratings (i.e. UMF 20-30). Even UMF 10 Manuka Honey is potent enough to kill MRSA and heal Staph infections.
When examined under a microscope, it has been discovered that MRSA cells form a septum down the middle, dividing the cell into two separate cells. This happens every 30 minutes. However, Manuka Honey has been found to interfere with the cell division cycle, stopping it dead in its tracks. This has now been considered a major breakthrough in the medical industry.
In summation, active Manuka Honey is one of the only natural substances in the world that is capable of efficiently destroying MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria. As a result, Manuka Honey is now being used as a main ingredient in antiseptic products. One New York-based manufacturer of skin care products is taking advantage of the natural antimicrobial properties of Manuka Honey. Honeymark has developed a First Aid Antiseptic Lotion that is effective in treatment MRSA and other bacterial infections.
"Our First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is our best selling product, specifically because of its ability to kill MRSA and heal Staph infections," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "With experts predicting that new antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria will inevitably emerge in the future, Manuka Honey will be considered an extremely valuable resource." As a natural ingredient, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes.

Manuka Honey Available in the USA
This amazing natural resource from New Zealand has become increasingly more popular as of late. As a result, it is now being utilized as a main ingredient in skin care products manufactured in the U.S.
Manuka Honey's international notoriety stems from its ability to treat a wide spectrum of health conditions both internally and topically on the skin. When taken orally, Manuka Honey has been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, stomach ulcers, gum disease, etc. Manuka Honey has also been effective in treating a wide range of skin conditions such as eczema, acne, infected wounds, burns, ringworm, etc.
Manuka Honey is considered to be antimicrobial, which means it is effective in destroying microorganisms that are responsible for causing bacterial, viral and fungal infections. Since most health conditions are caused by these unwanted microbes, Manuka Honey's ability to destroy them has attracted the attention of doctors and other medical professionals around the world. Manuka Honey is even efficacious enough to eradicate MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria. Since antibiotics have proven to be relatively ineffective in treating Staph infections, the use of Manuka Honey is now being considered a viable treatment alternative. This is being recognized as a major breakthrough in the medical industry.
In addition to its medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey is also drawing attention to itself as a cosmetic ingredient. Manuka Honey has a hydrating and rejuvenating effect on the skin. It also has the ability to increases skin elasticity and collagen production. As a result, Manuka Honey has become recognized as an excellent anti-wrinkle solution. It has other impressive skin care applications in terms of a cleansing agent for clearing acne and other unsightly blemishes. Its antibacterial properties eliminate infections that cause red marks, boils and pimples.
It's not the bees in New Zealand that are so special, rather than the flowers where they collect the nectar to make the honey. The Manuka bush grows beautiful white and pink flowers that contain this unique nectar with unusually potent healing properties. Honeybees use this nectar to produce Manuka Honey. Bee farmers in New Zealand put their hives within close proximity to Manuka trees so that the bees only use its nectar to manufacture their honey.
Unfortunately, Manuka Honey is somewhat hard to come by. Shipping costs from New Zealand to the U.S. can be more than the honey itself. However, a New York-based company called Honeymark has developed a line of skin care products containing Manuka Honey as a main ingredient. Their creams and lotions also takes the sticky mess out of applying Manuka Honey directly to the skin.
"In many cases, active Manuka Honey has proven to be more effective than traditional forms of medicine," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "At a time when consumers are becoming more confident in the use of natural and cosmeceutical products, Manuka Honey offers the peace of mind of having no negative side effects. Even medical doctors who are usually more in favor of pharmaceuticals have become impress with the amazing healing benefits of Manuka Honey."
