Manuka Honey Heals - Manuka Honey could be the new antibiotic, according to Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International, a manufacturer of honey-based health care products. By studying the way bacteria protect themselves from attack by forming slimy clumps, Honeymark scientists have discovered that Manuka Honey may be an effective new weapon in breaking up the microbes’ defenses. “If the bacteria can multiply enough to form a slimy mass called a biofilm, they are much less sensitive to antibiotics and antiseptics,” says Frank Buonanotte. “Doctors treating badly injured and infected patients urgently need to remove these biofilms so that they can treat their wounds safely, and prevent the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.” Honeymark scientists studied six different strains of bacteria, five of which came from injuries.
