Medicinal Uses for Manuka Honey


Manuka honey is a type of honey derived from the Leptospermum scoparium plant, indigenous to New Zealand. It has been found to have healing properties not found in other types of honey and is used in a variety of health care products and home remedies because of its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

Pain Relief

Manuka honey can be used to treat pain because of its anti-inflammatory properties. Manuka honey can penetrate the skin and help with arthritic pain, stiffness, muscle pain and joint pain. Manuka honey contains glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate, which are anti-inflammatory agents. These two anti-inflammatory agents stimulate the production of cartilage components, which are essential for joint repair and pain relief, and also decrease inflammation.

Wound Care

Manuka honey is helpful in treating wounds by allowing dead skin to lift off the wound. Manuka honey has antimicrobial and antibacterial properties which help in treating infection. It decreases inflammation in the wound, which helps to reduce the amount of leakage as well. Manuka honey actively stimulates the healing process so skin grafting is not necessary.

Wrinkles

Manuka honey also helps with the reduction and prevention of wrinkles. It is naturally moisturizing and contains vitamins and antioxidants that are beneficial to helping maintain the elasticity and texture of the skin. Manuka honey helps with the texture of the skin because it produces collagen and aids in skins elasticity. The antimicrobial properties of Manuka Honey help to protect skin from free radicals and damage from the sun, which can also lead to premature aging of the skin.

Younger Skin with Manuka Honey


Honey, an old remedy for wrinkles, has powerful anti-aging properties that can take years away from your appearance. Honey has amazing effects on the skin. However, before you run to the store and buy a massive amount of the sticky stuff to rub all over your face, it is important to know that not all honey is created equal. The best honey to use for aging skin is Manuka Honey from New Zealand because it contains more vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants than other types of honey. It also contains healing properties that help restore and rejuvenate skin cells.

Raw Manuka Honey is packed with active enzymes while most ordinary honey is pasteurized and dead. Manuka Honey is known as the best honey to use for anti-aging purposes and is the only honey that contains scientifically proven healing properties for skin health.

Manuka honey is derived from the nectar of the Manuka bush which is indigenous to New Zealand. Scientists have discovered that this truly is the best honey for aging skin because it supports the body's renewal of skin cells and helps to form collagen, which is a powerful skin protein vital for preventing wrinkles and other effects of aging. Manuka Honey is also packed full of powerful antioxidants which offset free radical skin damage, one of the primary causes of aging appearance, wrinkles, sagging skin and age spots.

If the thought of putting honey on your skin is not appealing, there are anti-aging products available that contain Manuka Honey. These products offer all of the same benefits of using pure Manuka Honey without the sticky mess. They also contain other natural ingredients that have a firming effect on the skin to help reduce the appearance of aging.

Honeymark Launches New Anti-Wrinkle Serum with Manuka Honey

New York-based skin care manufacturer introduces their first cosmetic product, an anti-aging system containing their signature ingredient, Manuka Honey.

Honey has been used for cosmetic purposes going back as far as Cleopatra, who used to mix it with milk and apply it to her face. Recent studies suggest that Manuka Honey, a premium honey produced in the New Zealand region, has an even greater effect on the skin than other types of honey. It has been discovered that high doses of healing nutrients found in this honey such as B-vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and enzymes play a key role in reversing cell damage and aging.

Manuka honey contains antioxidants that heal, repair and nourish the skin, making it look and feel younger, smoother and healthier. The rejuvenating properties found in Manuka Honey help in the regeneration of collagen and elastin. It helps reduce lines and wrinkles and helps the skin retain more moisture so that it doesn't appear to be dry or flaky.

It has also been found that Manuka Honey helps the skin's cell renewal process. This means younger looking skin cells are more readily available. It creates stronger collagen protein which helps keep skin youthful and supple. In addition, Manuka Honey contains natural antiseptic qualities that heal scratches or sores that may be present on the surface of the skin. The antioxidants present in Manuka Honey protect against free radicals in the environment.

As Manuka Honey penetrates deeply into the skin, it nourishes and rejuvenates, making the skin feel and look softer and younger. Free radicals damage collagen fibers responsible for keeping skin firm and tight. Manuka Honey strengthens collagen, destroys the radicals and improves the skins elasticity giving the appearance of younger-looking skin. Manuka Honey is so effective as a natural healing agent, it has even been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acne, eczema, bacterial and fungal infections.

In addition to Manuka Honey, Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum contains other valuable anti-aging ingredients, such as Matrixyl, Retinol and Collagen.

Matrixyl contains polypeptides called matrikines, that restructure and repair the skin. They stimulate collagen production by jump-starting the skin repair process, causing significant improvements in elasticity and skin tone. Matrixyl is an amazing breakthrough in skin care, providing a significant anti-wrinkle and skin lifting effect. It actually penetrates the skin to repair and stimulate collagen production, leading to smoother, more radiant skin. After only two months of using Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum, customers will experience a 45% decrease in wrinkle depth, 250% increase in collagen production and 15% improvement in skin tone.

Retinol is a Vitamin A derivative that repairs and stimulates collagen and elastin, creating firmer, smoother skin. Its small molecular structure allows it to penetrate the outer layers of the skin and repairs the lower layers of the skin where collagen and elastin exist. Retinol also increases skin cell turnover and exfoliation, drastically reducing age spots and blotches on the skin.

Collagen is a major structural protein that makes up 75% of the skin. It stimulates the formation of new collagen fibrils, leading to skin regeneration. At the same time elasticity is improved, helping to smooth wrinkles on the face and neck.

"We have combined the best anti-aging ingredients for a truly unique age reversing system," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Our Anti-Wrinkle Serum significantly outperforms other higher priced products containing ingredients that are damaging to the skin."
