Why Manuka Honey
The higher the MGO, the stronger the effect.
For thousands of years, honey has been used to support healing, and modern science is now catching up. Proven benefits include:
- Soothing sore throats and coughs – Its antimicrobial strength helps ease irritation and reduce symptoms.
- Supporting digestive health – A spoonful on an empty stomach may assist with reflux, bloating, and gut inflammation.
- Healing skin wounds, burns, and blemishes – Apply topically to minor cuts, grazes, or acne for natural relief.
- Boosting immunity – A daily dose helps the body stay resilient against infection and inflammation.
- Easing cold and flu symptoms – Take with warm water or lemon to clear congestion and support recovery.
At Gather By, our Manuka honey is raw and unprocessed, retaining its full spectrum of natural enzymes, antioxidants, and plant compounds. Unlike heat-treated or blended honeys, ours is carefully crafted to preserve purity, potency, and maximum MGO development—even after it’s jarred.
And while New Zealand might have the brand awareness, Australian Manuka honey is proving to be more powerful. Recent studies show it contains higher levels of phenolic compounds, linked to stronger antioxidant and antibacterial activity.
Our bees forage from both wild and cultivated Australian Leptospermum plants—also known as Manuka bushes—hand-selected for their naturally high DHA content, which bees convert into MGO.
So whether you’re managing a condition or simply investing in your everyday wellness, Gather By’s raw Manuka honey offers one of nature’s most powerful, science-backed remedies—straight from our forests to your spoon.
