Buying Guide

Understand potency markers

Look for UMF, MGO, or KFactor ratings to compare antibacterial potency—higher numbers generally indicate stronger activity

Choose raw vs processed

Raw honey retains more enzymes and pollen; brands list 'raw' or 'organic' when minimal processing is used

Match jar size to use

Consider sizes like 250g or 500g depending on frequency of use to avoid prolonged storage that can affect texture

Check origin labeling

Country of origin (for example New Zealand) can help verify Manuka authenticity and regulatory standards for UMF/KFactor claims

Balance price and potency

Higher UMF/MGO or certified KFactor honeys typically cost more; decide whether higher antibacterial ratings align with your needs
