Manuka honey contains the presence of Methylglyoxal (MGO) which, along with other naturally occurring compounds, give it the potent properties to mend and nourish our skin. First Honey tests every batch of Manuka honey independently to ensure it meets our strict criteria for Medical-grade usage, with a high concentration of MGO and free of any contaminants or irritants that could interfere with the healing process. Finally, our First Honey bandages and ointment are sterilized to ensure they are safe to use on wounds and broken skin.
