This index expresses the quantity of Methylglyoxal per kilogram of honey. For example, a Manuka honey with the characteristics of 200mg\/kg would be represented by MGO 200+. Manuka Health owns the MGO design<strong>.<\/strong>   <\/li>\n<li>NPA (Non Peroxide Activity): non-peroxide activity. This scale can be compared to a classic phenolic disinfectant. The more powerful the activity, the greater the circle of inhibition around the honey. A 10% phenol solution, for example, is equivalent to a honey labeled NPA +10.<br \/>\nSince April 1, 2020, this is a European trademark registered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puri-newzealand.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Rastenberger<\/strong> <\/a>GmbH.   <\/li>\n<li>UMF (Unique Manuka Factor): this is the most widespread. It is due to a New Zealand association whose aim is to promote Manuka honey locally and on foreign markets. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Initially, this was the scale created by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Peter_Molan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Peter Molan. <\/strong><\/a>Members (beekeepers) pay an entrance fee and are entitled to use the UMF+ logo.<\/p>\n<p>The institution is reputed to be serious and regularly tests its honeys. This is a guarantee of quality for the consumer, as the scale applied is the same as for the NPA (% phenol solution). <\/p>\n<p>However, all honey contains small quantities of hydrogen peroxide molecules, which react to produce an antiseptic effect.<\/p>\n<p>Despite its low non-peroxidic activity, our index 5+ manuka honey is really effective on open wounds and scars. We&#8217;ve tested it! <\/p>\n<h2>The taste of Manuka Honey index 5+ :<\/h2>\n<p>Our Index 5+ Manuka honey has a caramel taste. Its powerful scent is reminiscent of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lecomptoirdumiel.com\/en\/produit\/ash-heather-honey\/\"><strong>heather<\/strong><\/a>. In fact, you could say they&#8217;re distantly related. Its consistency is rather granular, but we don&#8217;t use it for the pleasure of our taste buds, but more for its benefits.   <\/p>\n<h2><strong>Did you know?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The best use is to apply Manuka honey 5+ externally to a wound. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lecomptoirdumiel.com\/en\/produit\/wild-thyme-honey\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>externally on a wound.<\/strong> <\/a>Ingesting it can also help with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lecomptoirdumiel.com\/en\/produit\/wild-thyme-honey\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>sore throats<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lecomptoirdumiel.com\/en\/produit\/chewable-pure-organic-propolis-in-precut-blister-packs\/\"><strong>mouth ulcers<\/strong> <\/a>and digestive problems.
