MGO 261 Manuka Honey Some Manuka honey contains a powerful ingredient called Unique Manuka Factor (UMF) in addition to the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial substances found in other honeys and is widely used for health promotion or treatment. These two substances have a synergistic effect that enhances each other's effectiveness.
UMF has been used to indicate the efficacy of Manuka honey for a long time, but this notation is only used in New Zealand and has limitations in completely expressing the active ingredients of Manuka honey. Since August 2008, the amount of methylglyoxal (MGO: Methylglyoxal), the main ingredient that produces antibacterial effects in Manuka honey, has been indicated to indicate the content more objectively and accurately.
Methylglyoxal is a natural organic compound found only in honey collected from the Manuka tree (Leptospermum scoparium), which grows natively in some parts of New Zealand. MGO is an important indicator of the unique antibacterial and therapeutic effects that only Manuka honey has.
The MGO concentration of Manuka honey may vary depending on the honey's maturation period, storage conditions, and harvesting time. The level of MGO is directly related to the potency and effectiveness of Manuka honey. Manuka honey is graded according to its MGO content, as higher MGO levels have increasingly stronger antibacterial and therapeutic effects. For example, MGO 100+ or less indicates that it contains methylglyoxal at a level that is helpful for health promotion, while MGO 500+ or higher indicates that it is a pharmaceutical-grade product with strong healing effects.
Who should take MGO 261
- If you have digestive problems
New Zealand Manuka honey is not heated, so the digestive enzymes remain intact. The digestive enzymes contained in Manuka honey contribute to improved digestion by helping food to be quickly digested in the stomach and passed down to the intestines.
Starting with MGO 261, it contains a significant amount of methylglyoxal and is recommended for mild digestive disorders. If you have mild gastritis or indigestion and have Helicobacter pylori, it is recommended to take MGO 261 Manuka honey on a regular basis.
- Fatigue recovery
The carbohydrates contained in Manuka honey are easily converted into glucose and can be used as energy. If you have low energy or are very tired, you can quickly replenish your energy by eating a spoonful of Manuka honey.
How to take
In order to see the effects of taking Manuka honey, it is important that the honey stays in the stomach for a long time while maintaining its concentration. For example, if you drink it in water on an empty stomach, it will not have much of an effect because its residence time in the stomach will be short and its concentration will be diluted. After a meal, scoop up about a tablespoon and consume it without water.
You can take it about twice a day, and if you are not at risk of diabetes or obesity, the effect will be faster if you take it more often. Digestive enzymes are destroyed if you mix it in hot water, so if you must eat it with water, it is better to mix it in lukewarm water. If possible, scoop it out with a spoon and eat it as is.
Caution
- Children under 1 year old are prohibited from taking honey as the enzymes contained in honey can cause severe food poisoning.
- Manuka honey is quickly absorbed by the body and increases blood sugar levels. Therefore, if you have diabetes, you should consume foods high in fiber to prevent your blood sugar level from rising rapidly, and carefully monitor changes in your blood sugar level. Even if you take Manuka honey with food, you should stop taking it if your blood sugar level rises excessively and exceeds the standard.
- Manuka honey is not a medicine, so there is no problem with taking it in large quantities, but if you are overweight, you should be careful as there is a risk of becoming obese if you do not control your diet so that the total calories do not change.
- MGO is resistant to heat and light and is not easily destroyed, but other enzymes are sensitive to heat or light, so it is safe to store it in the refrigerator after consumption.
