Manuka Honey

Should we have manuka honey every day? The answer is a definite YES.

This ‘liquid gold’ as it’s sometimes called, has multiple benefits attributed to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.

  • Manuka honey helps improve gut health, and digestive and urinary issues, and some report immediate relief with acid reflux.

  • It also helps prevent tooth decay and gingivitis;

  • it treats wounds, burns, colds and coughs.

  • Even with cold sores, it provides a protective layer, reducing healing time and discomfort.

  • The medicinal use of honey goes back thousands of years, but recently, Manuka honey gained evidence that it might be useful against several cancers, especially breast and liver cancers, thanks to its anti-tumour potential. This benefit is highlighted in the recent WDDTY November issue. The article also talks about its positive effect on brain health, including Alzheimer’s and various eye conditions!

So I ask you: is there anything that Manuka can’t help???  The answer seems a definite NO.

Just be careful with pollen allergies and diabetics due to its high sugar levels. Also not recommended for infants under 1, as it may have some germs from production!

After many years of my friends pushing me to do so, I’ve finally decided to share the fruits of my 30+ years of health and wellness knowledge.


Following a Ph.D in Economics I had a complete career change and studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, graduating as an Acupuncturist over 25 years ago. Since then I have continued to study - completing degrees in Chinese Herbs and Naturopathic Nutrition and becoming a Reiki Healer.


I continue to treat patients and am an avid reader of all things health. This page aims to provide a consolidated account of my past and continued learnings.


I hope you enjoy it and that it helps you take control of your health and better understand your body and mind.
