Manuka Honey

peggy:

hi ! my son has sinus and also eczema problem. Can he take manuka ?

Is he 2yrs and above? If yes, do a small sample (a drop or 2) to make sure that he does not have any allergies towards honey.

Honey is not recommended for young kids as it is afterall raw food.

The sales promoter told me that Manuka should actually clear phlegm.
I was quite concerned if Manuka is 'heaty' but she said it can help to prevent sore throat and sinus.

Hi,


I just bought a bottle of manuka honey UMF12+ for my kids. Just wandering whether UMF12+ is suitable for my kids at age of 8 and 12? Also, I’ve heard that metal and plastic spoon cannot be used to scoop the honey but only ceramic spoon, is it true? Thanks.

From what I know, only metal spoon not advisable to be used. I use plastic or ceramic spoon.

I give my kids 6 and 10 a teaspoon of UMF 15. UMF 12 should be fine.
Didn't get UMF 20 as it is too strong as we take it almost daily. Maybe next round will get UMF 10 since we take it as prevention/maintenance.

Manuka honey is working for me and my DS too. DS takes it everyday after breakfast.


We bought it after this thread started.

Two days ago, I had an itchy throat and was coughing a bit, I took two teaspoons of it and went to sleep. In the morning, throat was ok.

Then yesterday, DS was coughing quite a bit in the night. He said whenever he drank or ate, it felt as if something was 'poking' his throat. Gave him some and when he woke up this morning, he said his throat was ok too.

BTW, I use a wooden spoon which can be bought from Daiso.

:thankyou: Andaiz, for starting this thread :celebrate:

Hi autumnbronze,

Take the manuka on empty stomach. It works better.
My son will ask for manuka when he feels a little sore throat coming, bcos he saw me doing so before bedtime. Since manuka is good for health, I’m for it. Even my hubby is willing to invest in manuka honey now.
