Manuka honey is unique because it is only created by bees that forage the flowers of the Manuka tree in New Zealand. Manuka honey is also the only honey that contains the natural organic compound, Methylglyoxal (MGO), which contributes to its amazing health and wellness properties.
MGO in Manuka honey refers to Methylglyoxal, a naturally occurring compound that contributes to the honey's unique antibacterial properties. It's measured in milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg), indicating the honey's potency. The higher the MG concentrations, the more potent the honey.
In the early 1990s, Dr. Peter Molan from Waikato University in New Zealand was studying the ‘peroxide activity’ attributed to honey's antibacterial properties. He found that unlike the ‘peroxide activity’ of other types of honey, which was easily destroyed by exposure to fluids, heat, and sunlight, Manuka honey had a different, more potent, and more stable property that he called “non-peroxide activity” (NPA).
Later, Professor Thomas Henle from the Technical University of Dresden in Germany set out to isolate what in Manuka honey was exhibiting this potent and stable antibacterial effect. He was able to isolate the methylglyoxal (MGO) as the compound producing the NPA.
There’s only one rule to remember when buying Manuka honey: the higher the MGO value, the more potent and effective the honey is believed to be for medicinal purposes.
Manuka honey is more than just a sweet treat; its unique properties offer a range of health benefits. Here's how it can make a difference in your life:

There are only two legitimate, industry-recognized, and independently verifiable ways to label Manuka Honey:
When you see anything else on a label of honey purporting to be Manuka honey, you should steer well clear. Examples of what continues to show up on labels include: “Active”, “Bio-Active”, “Total Activity”, “K-Factor” plus a number typically ranging from 5+ to 20+. When labeled this way, the company is trying to intentionally mislead the consumer into thinking they are getting a high MG (or legitimate UMF) honey when in reality, they are typically getting a very low concentration or low activity (i.e., low MG value) honey.
You can buy authentic New Zealand Manuka honey directly on our website. At Bees & Trees, we are committed to producing the best quality Manuka honey. We harvest our honey in small batches to ensure high quality, minimally process it, and then pack it. We also publish our Methylglyoxal test reports on our product pages so you can shop confidently.
Manuka honey is more expensive than other types of honey due to its limited supply from New Zealand and its unique wellness benefits. At Bees & Trees, we produce our own honey and sell it directly to you the consumer, bypassing traditional distribution and large retail chain profit margins. On a pricer per MGO per ounce, we are typically 30-50% lower than many of competing brands.
This delicious honey is responsible for my wellness including stronger nails and hair. My complexion is better, I’m never sick. I give it a 10 out of 10!
This is the best tasting honey! More importantly it is so good for you.
Generally skeptical of all marketing that hits my social media feeds, I decided to try bees and trees manual honey given my history of gastrointestinal problems and seasonal allergies. I had read about the medicinal properties of manuka honey and so took the plunge. The texture and taste of the honey is great and I do think it has helped with my gastrointestinal issues. It’s pricey but delicious and worth the investment in your health.
I just realized that my tooth no longer hurts. It’s been about a week since I have felt it. I have been putting about a teaspoon on my gums for a few weeks.
I’m am so glad I stumbled across a FB post for Bees & Trees discussing its benefits. After researching how it helps GERD, I decided to give it a try. I have struggle with gastritis & indigestion for years, I wanted healing instead of a bandaid. I decided to try the 550 highly active honey. After just 2 weeks of use my burning stomach and indigestion it just about gone. I have been using a teaspoon in the morning when I wake up & a half hour before bed. For the rest of the month I’ll continue this regimen & then go down to 1/2 teaspoon twice a day. Hopefully that will be a good maintenance dose. I’m about 2/3 done with my jar already after 2 weeks, so I’m going to do the reoccurring subscription. Thank you for harvesting and packaging this incredible honey, I love the company is a US company with their own bee farm in NZ. Keep up the great work!
I love this honey! It’s the best I’ve ever tasted. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.
I love the beneficial benefits of Manuka honey, as well as the creamy texture and delicious flavor.
This honey is the real deal. Builds immunity and keep the fuel tank full (energy). Get it you won't be disappointed. Quit wasting your $$ on fake honey. Get Bees & trees
My husband and I have been taking a spoonful every morning for months and we made it through the fall and winter without getting sick! We love the taste!
Obsessed is extreme I know but that's the first word that came to my mind when prompted to write a review title. I have tried so many other brands, this Manuka honey blows the competition away, I PROMISE YOU! I have noticed an amazing difference in the effects felt by switching to this brand, knowing they test and source the honey from prime sources and give so much info about their honey as well. I spend extra and get the 830+ founders reserve because I am worth it and so are you, my body deserves quality and the most healing benefits offered. I take advantage of the generous discounts they offer for ordering, it comes so fast and informative tracking plus its packaged so well to preserve the GLASS packaging which right there is the main reason to buy, others are using plastic, like why??? This is high value and quality with no remorse of adding to my monthly budget to keep my dental and gut health in check. Just buy it and be grateful God made honey, bees and this company Bees & Trees!!!! Have a blessed day everyone, thankful for being able to share an honest review that will help others to a product needed in our lives nowadays, God Bless.
