Manuka Honey 900+mgo 500g

Benefits of Manuka Honey for Horses

🩹 1. Supports Wound Healing

Manuka honey is widely used in equine wound management. It can:

• Promote faster tissue regeneration

• Reduce proud flesh formation

• Maintain a moist healing environment

• Help wounds close more cleanly with less scarring

🦠 2. Natural Antibacterial Properties

Its high methylglyoxal (MGO) content gives it strong antibacterial activity. This helps:

• Reduce bacterial load in wounds

• Lower the risk of infection

• Assist in healing problematic or slow-healing wounds

🔥 3. Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Manuka honey can calm irritated tissue and reduce inflammation, making it useful for:

• Swollen or inflamed wound edges

• Minor skin irritations

🧼 4. Provides Gentle Debridement

It helps break down necrotic (dead) tissue naturally, which supports:

• Cleaner wound beds

• Healthier granulation tissue

• Less need for mechanical debridement

🐴 5. Soothes Gastric Irritation (with caution)

Some horse owners use medical-grade Manuka honey to help:

• Soothe mild gastric irritation

• Support gut lining health
  However, it is NOT a cure for ulcers and should not replace veterinary treatment.

🛡️ 6. Antioxidant Support

Manuka honey contains antioxidants that can:

• Support cellular repair

• Help mitigate oxidative stress in healing tissue

🧴 7. Useful for Skin Conditions

It may help with:

• Minor dermatitis

• Scratches (mud fever)

• Small abrasions
  Because of its antimicrobial and soothing properties.

⚠️ Important Safety Notes

• Use medical-grade Manuka honey for wound care—regular food-grade honey may contain spores or contaminants.

• Avoid giving honey to horses with metabolic disorders (e.g., EMS, IR, Cushing’s) unless approved by a vet.

• Deep, infected, or rapidly worsening wounds should always be seen by a veterinarian.
