| After about a week my wife noticed that the wounds looked a lot better as it seemed to be healing better than in ...September 21, 2017 I did some online research on this before I purchased it. I am diabetic and I injured the smallest toe on my right foot ripping the skin apart between the toe and scraping the skin from the outer side of the toe. Being diabetic healing is a little slower that other people. Also, my wearing a work shoe daily complicated matters. The areas on the toe became infected after about a week to which my doctor prescribed antibiotics for a couple of weeks. I was also given instructions on cleaning and dressing the wounds along with a topical gel to apply. After about a month of this my doctor became concerned because of the slow healing and possible internal infection of the broken bone in the toe. He scheduled me for a follow-up appointment about 2 weeks away. I decided to try this honey as a dressing in hope that it would aid in healing the wounds. After about a week my wife noticed that the wounds looked a lot better as it seemed to be healing better than in the last month. On my return visit my doctor was amazed at how my toe was progressing. After my next return visit to my doctor ( 2 more weeks), he discontinued any treatment and referred to my toe as a "great save" because he was considering possible amputation. When I told him that I had been using the honey he was familiar with its success. It certainly worked for me! Note: For anyone considering using it as a wound dressing, I lightly coated my the wounds with honey and applied a non-stick dressing along with changing the dressing at least twice daily. Amount in jarJuly 26, 2017 Not sure what people were saying about 1/2 filled container,,mine was about an inch and a half from very top,,it's the ounces.Just arrived ,,taste is good ,,no more to say yet.Expensive Works good for a sore throat or bad coughingApril 27, 2017 Received this item on time. Works good for a sore throat or bad coughing. I'd recommend this item to anyone who asks. Mom's with kids with molescum!January 31, 2017 I bought this because my daughter has molescum contagiosum on her legs with eczema on top. We've tried EVERYTHING. I MEAN EVERYTHING. I applied Comvita Manuka honey 15+ on her spots for a few days and most of them are gone. While it's still too early to tell if it's a permanent fix, this is definitely a win. Sweet! But only 6 ounces of honey!!January 12, 2017 Wonderful tasting honey. The bottle says 8.8 oz but each of my 4 bottles has had only 6 oz in it. I cleaned empty bottle and measured to level where honey was. The whole bottle holds 8 oz full to the brim. At the price per ounce, this is a real rip off from Comvita. "The highest ideal of cure is the speedy, gentle, and enduring restoration of health."--Samuel HahnemannDecember 6, 2016 I was a grocery buyer for over ten years, and I sat through endless trainings on manuka honey, which was a hot seller on and off through the years. Comvita is my favorite brand of manuka. Confused about the weird labeling differences across the brands? Here's some info from behind the scenes:WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THE VARIOUS RATINGS?: Okay here we go. Back in the day, it was the hydrogen peroxide content that companies used as a marker for labeling. But fraudulent companies could easily spike fake manuka honey with HP, so authentic companies gave that up. Then companies started labeling by the methylglyoxal content, another component of real manuka (when you see "MGO" and a number on a label, the company is still using that method.). But unfortunately it turned out MGO content could be gamed as well. Finally the country of New Zealand (which has a vested interest in guarding real manuka's reputation) got serious about finding a marker for real manuka that couldn't be easily faked. Two years ago a researcher found one: leptosperin. Leptosperin can NOT be easily replicated. So now the "UMF" (which stands for "Unique Manuka Factor") rating measure both the leptosperin AND the methylglyoxal content, and is back to be being the best rating, per the New Zealand government, and me. That's enough about that.WHY IS IT EXPENSIVE: Manuka is a mono-floral honey, meaning the bees gather the honey from only the manuka bush. It is harvested only a few times a year, and the country of New Zealand is fighting hard to make sure that only manuka honey from New Zealand can be labeled "manuka honey" (the bushes also grow in Australia, but you snooze you lose. The Kiwis turned it into a blockbuster product first and they got dibs on the name.).WHAT CAN YOU USE IT FOR?: All sorts of things. At my house we use it to clear up lingering infections, and there is research on its antibacterial properties. It does not appear to work on fungal issues. Virtually all people who work in Wellness and Health departments in natural grocery stores have a manuka story. Just exercise the same caution you would use when taking any product for the first time, and do your research if you want it for something specific. Comvita, though, is an excellent brand and the one I always use.In conclusion, it doesn't taste very good (sort of bitter) and it costs an arm and a leg, but I love it. I was watching a Chinese TV show on Netflix just now and ate all my stash. It just makes me feel good, what can I say. There is nothing more to say. Hope the above helps those of you shopping, because we rate this:GRADE: A | | | |

| My husband's stomach is not very good, looking forward to the effectSeptember 7, 2017 comvita is very popular honey.My husband's stomach is not very good, looking forward to the effect. It is small maybe. It's excellent! it kept me from developing a bad cold ...October 12, 2015 It's excellent! it kept me from developing a bad cold and sore throat,my stomach issues are improving too Four StarsAugust 21, 2015 My wife use it and she likes it. It will take several weeks before you see the benefits. Very Good HoneyAugust 18, 2015 The honey was very good, but not as good as some other brands I have tried. It is mostly a matter of taste, so I think each person has to decide for themselves which brand they prefer. That said, it is a very good product and also quite pricey. Four StarsNovember 11, 2014 Tastes great. Seems to be very high quality. 250g is an 8 day supplyMay 8, 2014 Just received this honey and started taking the recommended dose with the hope it alleviates my reflux symptoms. Just to warn anyone else thinking of buying some - you're supposed to take 10g (a teaspoon) 3x a day. That means this size of bottle will last you all of 8 days. At this price, it works out to $4+ per day you're on this stuff - I hope it works! | | | |

| Three StarsNovember 22, 2016 I finished two bottles, but I didn't really feel anything. Good but a bit sandy and medicinal unlike many others I've had.May 20, 2016 This honey is okay. A bit sandy/grainy and somewhat medicinal. Maybe that's natural? A bit expensive for my taste too. I like the "Manuka Health" brand much better! It's smoother and creamier with a better flavor. Maybe because it has less Manuka pollen. Idk. But it does taste much better than this Comvita brand. Three StarsJune 3, 2015 Does not taste like regular honey but from what i read its the best health wise Fragile plastic container. Handle with care!May 30, 2015 The honey is good as reviewed but the plastic container is fragile. It broke into pieces from a low drop and made a mess in my kitchen.For the price, this packaging is disappointing. A bit disappointed.November 29, 2014 Boy, if this honey has provided me with any benefits, I can't tell it. For a while, I put 1 tsp in my hot tea every morning. Wasted effort, as far as I could tell. Then I tried 1 tsp in a glass of warm milk before bedtime, as I have trouble getting to sleep. No difference. Maybe I would be sick or dead without it and simply don't realize it. But honestly, this is not money I will spend again. Will continue using local wildflower honey in morning tea. A bit disappointed after everything I had read. EhMay 9, 2014 Received item tried it a few times, tastes pretty good but I was expecting to feel some sort of change on overall health/energy/digestion. Did not notice any change from this good or bad. I will keep in my cabinet for when I have a sweet craving. | | | |

| the honey leakedSeptember 23, 2017 It was the second to buy the honey. However, when I received products, one bottle was broken and the honey leaked. Stong medicinal tasteSeptember 3, 2017 It does have a very strong medicinal smell, flavor and after taste. My family loves raw honey but we will not purchase this one again as the flavor is a bit too strong for us to take everyday. We have had other brands of Manuka honey that we prefer. I have been purchasing this honey for two years from ...July 24, 2017 I have been purchasing this honey for two years from stores and online, this time I bought it online again and the honey is totally different with what I had before, it is thin liquid full of small bubbles and tastes strange...... Cost too much for what was deliveredMarch 11, 2017 Was not full, about athird. Look at attached pictures! I could not believe how little you get for your moneyAugust 27, 2015 I have always hated reviews that ding a product for its price - after all, everyone can see the price and decide for themselves whether it works for them, right? And yet here I am, writing one of those reviews.I simply didn't realize just HOW little product you get for your money. (The seller clearly states this is an 8.8oz container so to be clear I am NOT blaming the seller, at all).For comparison, we are talking a medium-sized vitamin bottle... I am a slim, small-boned woman and the entire container fits in the palm of my hand. There are MAYBE 10 tablespoons of honey in it, making it a breathtaking $5 per spoonful. (Not that I could actually get a tablespoon into the container - it is so small that only a teaspoon would go past the opening).I would easily go through of these containers a week just for myself, and for my family of three I would need at least two of these per week! I know it's a better honey with added health benefits but $100 per week on honey is simply too crazy for me. Didn't do much!February 5, 2015 Did not work for me on skin and cyst. Tasted great as an addition to tea or a smoothie. | | | |
