MANILA, Philippines - Growing up in my household, taking a spoonful of honey every morning was as normal as taking multi-vitamins. On one occasion, I got curious and asked my mom why she gave us honey every breakfast. She claimed that the candy-sweet syrup would make us stronger and grow faster than the other kids in school. Hence, even at an early age, I developed a liking for honey and the promise of superhuman strength that goes along with taking it.
Given By Nature, Proven By Science
Of course, as I grew older, I realized that honey didn’t really give a person superhuman strength as I imagined it would as a child, but it does boost one’s immune system and has a host of medicinal and health benefits if taken correctly. I also learned that Manuka Health Honey from New Zealand contains the highest level of MGO or (methylglyoxal) in the world. MGO is responsible for the antibacterial properties of honey — the higher the MGO, the more potent the honey is.
But why choose Manuka Health honey products over the others?
Manuka Health products, exclusively distributed by Bee Healthy Trading, are superior to other honey brands because of the following:
• The certified Manuka Honey MGO system has become the new standard for accurately measuring the antibacterial property of Manuka honey.
• Manuka Health sources its honey and propolis from Manuka bush grown wild and free in Mt. Adams, New Zealand. They harvest the honey from their own bee farms. They do not buy from other sources.
• New Zealand Manuka Honey is the only 100% natural food in the world shown to have effective and reliable antibacterial activity, as verified by its significant nutritional methylglyoxal (MGO) content.

And now, meet Charles Lyndon Ley, the man who brought Manuka Health products to the Philippines. His passion for the brand stemmed from his personal experience. Once based in Shanghai, he flew home for the Christmas holidays. The night before he was scheduled to leave for Shanghai, he felt a cold coming and was nursing a slight fever. He became anxious that he wouldn’t be able to travel the next day. Thankfully, his mom, who had been a loyal patron of Manuka Health for a number of years, prodded him to try the Manuka Honey. Charles doesn’t really believe in natural medicines and supplements, but nonetheless the Manuka Honey to humor his mom. To his surprise, the healing effects were immediate and he was able to make his flight. “I had never tried any product on the market, be it chemical-based or natural, that was able to stop a cold from the onset until I tried Manuka Health MGO Honey. Needless to say, I instantly became a fan!” says Charles. It is this experience that convinced him to bring Manuka Health products to the Philippines.
