Premium Manuka Honey: the benefits of an outstanding quality honey

Premium Manuka Honey

In this article, we would like to share more about Premium Manuka Honey and the parameter MGO, used to measure the quality of honey. 

In general, Manuka Honey is a type of premium honey because of its properties and controls over the production in the land of origin, New Zealand.  

 

Measuring MGO in premium Manuka honey 

Firstly, MGO is the responsible for strong antibacterial activity. In other words, its rating is a standardized measure of this active ingredient’s content. Therefore, it is a reliable indicator of quality and health-enhancing benefits.

What is MGO?

MGO stands for ‘Methylglyoxal’. It measures the presence of this organic compound in certain natural products such as Manuka Honey. 

Then, from a nutritional point of view, the significance of MGO provides a non-peroxide, antibacterial agent against many microbes and germs. In fact, Manuka Honey is considered a unique factor in certain food substances. It is due to its natural presence, high stability and powerful antiseptic properties. 

The antimicrobial properties of Manuka Honey are determined by a grading system that usually goes from 30 MGO to 829 MGO (directly accounting for its mg per kg tested content). 

MGO is formed in the honey from Manuka nectar, commonly found throughout New Zealand. Therefore, as the honey ripens, its content and strength tend to increase.

Why is MGO so important? Because this form of measurement provides an internationally recognized standard for buyers. Under this criteria they can confidently purchase Premium Manuka Honey based on its potency. This requires expertise, know-how and careful storage from the side of Manuka Honey suppliers, especially when handled in bulk.
