Manuka Honey’s Antibacterial Power Goes Beyond Sugar and MGO: Study

Manuka Honey’s Antibacterial Power Goes beyond Sugar and MGO: Study

Manuka honey may also hold potential against bacteria that cause respiratory infections, including strains resistant to common antibiotics, and its antibacterial effects arise from the combined action of methylglyoxal (MGO) and additional components within the honey matrix.
