Comvita ManukaCare 18+ 60g Comvita ManukaCare 18+ 60g

Comvita Manukacare 18+ protects, shields and hydrates the skin naturally. Manuka Honey has well researched antibacterial properties and is also known to be anti-fungal.

How Manukacare can help you:
* Supports the body in fighting infection
Wounds and burns are prone to infections that can dramatically slow down the healing process. Tests have shown that honey can help clear wounds and assist in the normal immune response to infection when used as a dressing, thus helping in the healing process. Studies show that Manuka honey with a high UMF® rating helps the natural immune response.

* Supports Natural Defenses
Wounds often cause damage to underlying circulations, reducing the supply of body nutrients needed for tissue re-growth. Honey "osmosis" actually draws serum from the body up into the wound, helping to increase tissue growth. Honey also contains glucose, essential in helping white blood cells fight bacteria.

* Assists Tissue Growth
When honey is used in wound dressings it provides a moist, bacteria-free environment. Keeping a wound moist also reduces scarring, by stopping scabs from forming on the surface of the wound.

* Creates a Healing Barrier
When honey is put on a wound beneath a sterile cotton dressing, the honey acts as a liquid barrier between the wound and the dressing. This helps prevent the dressing from sticking, which in turn can reduce pain and tissue damage when dressings are changed.

* Assists Healing
Studies have shown that the acidity produced by honey helps stimulate minor wound healing. The sugars in honey also stop bacteria from producing ammonia, the cause of unpleasant odours associated with some varicose ulcers. The lack of ammonia also means that skin tissues are less irritated.
