I first noticed something wasn’t quite right when I started having digestive issues. Every time I ate I’d end up with acid reflux, uncomfortable gas, and my bowel movements had become irregular.

When I was diagnosed with a hormone imbalance, I also learned it was prevalent in the aging Chinese community. But with my diagnosis came a whole lot of other health-related issues, inflammation in the body, low thyroid, gum disease, and dry eyes. But a hormone imbalance doesn’t necessarily affect everyone the same, how it appears in the body can differ. Some have thyroid problems, some have diabetes, and some have high blood pressure - but it’s all related to inflammation in the body.

I knew something needed to change, but I wanted to avoid using pharmaceutical medication if I could. I wanted a natural remedy. So I went online and researched what I could do for my male hormone imbalance and what options there were for natural testosterone boosters. That’s when I came across New Zealand Honey Co. Manuka honey. So I started to look into Manuka honey and hormones and Manuka honey and testosterone and found that Money Honey could also be good for my stomach problems, that’s when I knew I had nothing to lose.

My Manuka honey journey began with a competitor brand, but I struggled to find a high enough UMF grade, and I couldn't trace where the honey had originally come from. I contacted the brand’s customer service team numerous times but no one came back to me, which made me question the authenticity of the product I was using. I wanted a product that was genuinely sourced from New Zealand, so I could be confident that it would be effective, and help with my hormone imbalance and digestive issues. That’s when I gave New Zealand Honey Co. Manuka honey a go, the QR code on the outside of the jar meant I could trace the origin of the honey.

I have been using Manuka Honey UMF™ 24+ | MGO 1122 on a monthly subscription for about 6 months now. I take it twice daily, one raw teaspoon first thing in the morning with a big glass of water on an empty stomach, and another at night to help with my gum disease. After I've taken it, I avoid eating so my body can absorb all the nutrients. I also really struggled with gum disease, my gums were constantly bleeding and swollen. So one night I decided to massage it into my gums before bed, when I woke in the morning my gums had returned to normal and the inflammation was gone. I couldn’t believe it.

All it took was two weeks to see and feel the difference in my body. Today, my acid reflux is non-existent, and my irregular bowel movements are now regular. I feel like a new person, that’s how I know Manuka honey is working.

The quality of the honey is like nothing else, and it tastes amazing. Once I found out that New Zealand Honey Co. Manuka honey is 100% sourced from New Zealand and that it undergoes rigorous testing to ensure its authenticity and quality, I was sold.

I have already referred New Zealand Honey Co. to my friends and family, especially those who also have inflammatory issues. I’ve bought quite a few jars and have given them to family members, and they too have noticed a real shift in their health. New Zealand Honey Co. Manuka honey is wonderful. It is a gift from God, the natural way to reduce inflammation in the body.

Manuka honey has significantly helped with my hormone imbalance, my digestive issues and acid reflux. And I have New Zealand Honey Co. to thank, so thank you.
