2 FUN WAYS TO INCLUDE MANUKA HONEY IN YOUR DAY

In Blog by Amanda Chong

Produced from the native Manuka bush in the Bay of Plenty region in New Zealand, NewLife™’s Raw Manuka Honey is a must-have in every home! Raw manuka honey offers a variety of health benefits.

It promotes oral health, soothes sore throats, prevents gastric ulcers, improves digestive health, and treats skin conditions such as acne.

It is also rich in vitamins, minerals, live enzymes, electrolytes and many other nutrients.

Raw manuka honey is particularly well-known for its potent antibacterial properties and can be used to help treat stomach ulcers caused by the helicobacter pylori (a.k.a. h. pylori) bacteria, which is also one of the causes of stomach cancer. 

Here are two fun ways to include manuka honey in your day!
