THROAT SPRAY WITH ACTIVE MANUKA HONEY 20 MILLITER HUMER

With its 100% natural active ingredients, Humer Throat Spray with active Manuka honey IAA® 15+ (MGO≥514mg/kg*) soothes the throat thanks to the presence of marshmallow. The spray also contains propolis.

Manuka honey is characterized by its high concentration of methylglyoxal, which generates an unequaled non-peroxidic activity, which partly explains its unique virtues and makes it an exceptional honey.
Marshmallow soothes the throat in case of discomfort.
Propolis.
Gluten and lactose free.
From 6 years old.

Usage tips :
4 sprays, 4 times a day

From 6 years old.

Composition :
Sugar of natural origin, a little water and hundreds of substances from plants and transformed by bees: this is what all honeys contain.
What makes Active Manuka honey so unique is its high content of methylglyoxal (MGO), a compound derived from the nectar of the flowers of this southern plant.

What are honeys made of?
Generally speaking, honey is made up of about 80% sugars and 17% water. The remaining part corresponds to:
Divers compounds of plant origin which vary according to the plants foraged and other environmental factors (harvest season, climate, geographical area, etc.); Amino acids, minerals, vitamins and other antioxidants; Enzymes secreted by bees to convert nectar into honey, including defensin-1 and glucose oxidase.
In summary, honeys are all a bit the same, and all a bit different!

Active Manuka honey: what's so special about it?
Manuka honey comes from the transformation by bees of the nectar of the flowers of a New Zealand shrub, Leptospermum scoparium, used in traditional medicine for centuries. Like other honeys, it contains sugar, mainly fructose and glucose, water (10%), substances of vegetable origin such as phenolic acids (caffeic, isoferulic, gallic, coumaric acids, etc.) and flavonoids (pinocembrin, chrysin, luteolin, quercetin, kaempferol, etc.).
Manuka honey also contains other compounds coming from the plant and giving it its exceptional properties, such as: dihydroacetone (DHA) which is transformed into methylglyoxal (MGO) during the maturation of the honey.
This natural compound is present in Manuka honey in concentrations up to 100 times higher than other honeys; methyl-syringate (MSYR) and one of its derivatives, leptosperine (or leptosine) derived solely from the nectar of Manuka flowers, which induce an enzymatic action converting hydrogen peroxide into sodium hypochlorite.

THE UNIQUE PROPERTIES OF MANUKA HONEY
Known to mankind since ancient times, the beneficial action of honey has been better and better understood during the 20th century thanks to the progress of science. Thanks to its very special composition, several years of research have shown that Manuka honey has a much higher activity than other honeys.

For millennia, man has traditionally used honey to heal himself, but it was at the end of the 19th century that the properties of honey were scientifically described. In the 1960s, an American scientist discovered that honey contained an enzyme secreted by the bee which, in the presence of water, allowed the transformation of sugars into hydrogen peroxide, commonly called hydrogen peroxide. Thanks to in-vitro studies, we know that its action is limited in time.

Manuka, an active honey with unique properties
Manuka honey has an additional activity. Indeed, it has a higher activity than other honeys thanks to a unique substance responsible for its non-peroxidic activity: methylglyoxal (MGO). Methylglyoxal comes from the natural chemical transformation of dihydroacetone (DHA), a compound in the nectar of Manuka flowers, during the maturation of honey. The higher the MGO level of a honey, the more active this honey is. Other honeys also contain MGO from other plants, but at concentrations 100 times lower than Manuka honey. These properties have aroused keen interest in Manuka honey on the part of the international scientific community, which for thirty years has devoted a great deal of work to it to better understand its action and test its action in numerous applications. This level of activity is guaranteed by the IAA® index. The higher the index, the greater the concentration of methylglyoxal, the more active the honey.
