Very high quality 100% pure medical graded Manuka Honey from Leptospermum scoparium, a small bush/tree from New Zealand
Manuka honey has a recognized effect on supporting the wound healing process by promoting a moist wound environment conducive to healing
Sterilized by gamma radiation that does not destroy glucose oxidase - Glucose oxidase produces hydrogen peroxide and gluconic acid, which provide the main antibacterial qualities of honey
Manuka honey’s pH (3.6–3.7) creates the desired acidic environment that has been shown to decrease bacterial growth and increase oxygen release, which promote wound healing
Increased osmolarity of the honey draws fluid and lymph from the underlying tissues, both of which provide nourishment to the healing wound
Great to use on:
Traumatic and contaminated wounds including minor abrasions and lacerations
Superficial and partial thickness burns
Cavity wounds including abscesses
Pressure sores and Hot Spots
Surgical wound recovery
Sterile honey wound dressing
100% Leptospermum scoparium honey from New Zealand
Easy to apply
After wound bed preparation simply apply the dressing needed.
Evaluate the wound for amount of exudate and time to the next dressing change
The dressing can be left on the wound for 3 to 5 days, depending on the wound status. This reduces the number of dressing changes, need of sedation and bandage material.
When the honey works and reduces the bacteria burden, it often takes away the bad odor that comes from an infected wound
May be used to add honey directly to the wound and provide a moist wound environment conducive to healing
