How does this honey compare to manuka health mgo 400 old 20+umf? Is this better? I need the best for my severe gastroparesis causing nausea/vomiting/acid reflex.

It cannot be compared to the MGO or UMF rating systems. Bioactive 24+ is a confusing rating system probably designed to be similar to the UMF rating system to propel sales. Bioactive 24+ rating system measures peroxide activity only and all honey have peroxide. UMF or MGO measure non-peroxide activity and that's what matters when considering Manuka honey.

Honestly I did not hear a disease amount on Dr. Oz. I did watch the show but, I will definitely look for another brand with a much higher mg! Thanks for the question.... I will benefit from a higher mg I'm sure.

I do not know--we would have to "research" it. The label on the package says it has "activity levels certified by an independent validated laboratory" and that we can "be assured of the rating in every batch of Manuka Doctor honey." Further, "The total activity rating is a reflection of naturally occurring peroxide activity levels." I know that I DO like this Manuka honey and would probably most likely purchase it again! But that's me!

I let my tea steep a while in the water for the medicinal properties. I think local honey is better than sugar but it depends on personal preference. I learned a lot watching Susun Weed and Rosemary Gladstar on youtube.com and by just doing basic research on the internet. My herb tea has been a great replacement for coffee!

I've been using OZ because I read the ingredients and what is in the top is most important to me. To be honest, I kind of want to go back to Amara because I liked the texture and feel of my face when I was using that one. I'm looking around Amazon, torn on which one to purchase right now.

Yes, this is gelatinized Maca....I know that personally, I tried using raw maca powder. It KILLED my stomach. I had an episode that literally sent me home from work. But the gelatinized maca has not created any stomach problems at all. Good luck!

I do not believe there is a MG rating for the product. The only rating I see is that the active level of the honey is 12%. The company may be able to give you the answer you need. Eras Natural Sciences, Inc. Sorry I wasn't more help

Correct, UMF means "Unique Manuka Factor" meaning it contains Methylglyoxal which is the unique internationally medicinal factor of this unique honey, which are tested by labs and packaging in New Zealand ONLY. Active + is an old designation and is not a guarantee that it has this unique compound in it. No wonder this is cheaper than a lot of other manuka honeys! Some people buying it may be lucky and gotten it from a batch that DOES have it in it, so it worked, but as a general standrad, I would definitely stick to UMF honey rating as the only NZ Government and University of Dresden, Germany recognized standard of quality Correct, UMF means "Unique Manuka Factor" meaning it contains Methylglyoxal which is the unique internationally medicinal factor of this unique honey, which are tested by labs and packaging in New Zealand ONLY.

My jar of Manuka honey has a warning that says "Not suitable for children under 4 years of age". The brand I have is called Manuka Health.

I suggest you check out www.gotmag.com. They are both good; one works for some people and the other works for others. In general I would say that glycinate is better, but that is my body speaking. You might also check out the magnesium advocacy group on face book which often speaks to this question. Keep adding the magnesium; you will feel better for it.

Try 'Garden of Life' Raw Meal vanilla chai flavor. It costs less than this product, tastes better and in my opinion is much better for you. Remember with the cacoa and maca powder you are getting added caffeine which in my experience is a toxin that builds up in the tissues and causes problems over time. They do make you feel great but there's a price to pay down the road. No such issues with the garden of life product I mentioned and it's cheaper to boot.

This is similar to UMF10+ honey.MGO 400 (methylglyoxal) is equivalent to NPA 12.9 (non-peroxide activity) which would be rated UMF10+ if this was a licensed UMF honey.There's an online conversion calculator for UMF/NPA to MGO ratings at: http://www.umf.org.nz/umf-trademark/methylglyoxal-npa-honey-conversion-calculatorTo get an MGO honey equivalent to UMF20+ you'd need an MGO rating over 800.

I agree with you, but it is my understanding that the Manuka 400+ is in the 15 UMF Range. Why they dont put on bottle baffles me. I wish Amazon or someone would get them to improve on their labeling.

I just love the Mochachino, I drink a shake every day. It even tastes great made with water, although I use lowfat milk to get more protein. I had bariatric surgery 8 months ago and this is only brand of protein shake I can still stand to drink. The rest make me gag now!

Like I said in my post,I think it is tribulus. I had it analysed in a chem lab and they said it was. I had been using the product,i.e,.sd-200, for a couple of years with good results and then out of the blue my last order recieved around March didn't look the same (lighter color,finer granules) so I tested it by leaving it by a window for 12 hours and sure enough it clumped up. Note: remove from capsule to perform this test. Then I sent it to a lab and confirmed my findings. My attempts to e-mail Sam failed. I think its' the same old greedy bastard story. I would suggest that Pure Science Supplements has gone bad.

It is 12+. I have used the jar of honey from New Zealand that had a higher rating but I am surprised and pleased that this is working out well too for an ulcer on a diabetic foot. It is convenient and easy to use and can be carried around if needed. I still like having both the jar by Wedderspoon, but right now this is my go to manuka honey for daily dressing changes. I hope this helps you out.
