Curious about why Manuka honey is a wellness favorite? 🌼🍯
It’s all about the MGO (methylglyoxal) content! This powerful compound gives Manuka honey its amazing antibacterial and antioxidant properties. The higher the MGO rating on the jar, the more potent the benefits.
Here’s why it’s great for immune and autoimmune health:
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Many autoimmune diseases involve chronic inflammation, where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues. Manuka honey contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that may help reduce inflammation in the body. By mitigating inflammation, Manuka honey could potentially alleviate symptoms associated with autoimmune conditions.
Gut Health: There is growing evidence linking gut health to autoimmune diseases. Manuka honey has been studied for its potential prebiotic effects, meaning it could promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. A healthy balance of gut bacteria is crucial for maintaining immune system balance and reducing the risk of autoimmune flare-ups.
Wound Healing: Some autoimmune conditions, such as psoriasis and lupus, can cause skin lesions and ulcers. Manuka honey’s wound-healing properties may be beneficial in promoting the healing of these skin issues, reducing discomfort, and preventing secondary infections.
Modulation of Immune Response: While autoimmune diseases involve an overactive immune response, Manuka honey’s ability to modulate immune function could potentially help balance immune activity by influencing cytokine production and immune cell activity which may help regulate immune response.
