‘Super honey’: A new type of honey has produced amazing results treating wounds and infections.
Be aware – this ‘Super Honey’ is put on wounds, it is not eaten.
A new honey has been produced that has had ‘amazing’ results treating wounds and infections.
The bio-engineered product Surgihoney was tested on babies, new mothers, cancer patients and the elderly for over a year in Hampshire (UK) hospitals.
Wounds and ulcers, including those infected with the superbug MRSA, healed within days, while the number of women who suffered infections after giving birth by caesarean section has halved.
It has also healed the wounds of soldiers returning from Afghanistan, and been used to treat acne and to protect the skin of cancer patients fitted with a catheter for chemotherapy.
Dr Matthew Dryden, consultant microbiologist at the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, said: ‘It will revolutionize wound care around the world.’
Honey has been used for its healing powers for thousands of years, although doctors favor penicillin and antibiotics.
However, Surgihoney, which is stored in 10g sachets, can kill bacteria, parasites and fungal infections while also encouraging wounds to heal.
Surgihoney is being developed by Ian Staples, a businessman who once owned the Halfords motor accessories chain. He bought an organic farm in southern Chile, set up beehives then funded scientific researchers in Ireland to identify the unique health elements.
The honey has been licensed by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority in the UK but is not yet commercially available.
