The Healing Power of Manuka Honey for Horse Wounds and Cuts
Why Choose Manuka Honey for Equine Wound Care?
Manuka Honey, especially with high MGO (Methylglyoxal) levels, is renowned for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties. Backed by research and trusted by veterinarians worldwide, it’s an exceptional natural remedy for managing equine wounds, minimizing infections, and enhancing the healing process.
1. Unmatched Antibacterial Properties
Manuka Honey’s potent antibacterial activity helps protect wounds from harmful pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa that often cause infections in horses. This unique bioactivity is attributed to the high levels of MGO and other bioactive compounds. (Source: TheHorse.com)
