The Science Behind

Nature's Most Powerful Honey

More than a decade of scientific research has demonstrated that Ulmo honey exhibits the highest antibacterial properties, surpassing even those of Manuka honey¹.

Ulmo honey was tested against a strong UMF 25+ Manuka honey and the Ulmo honey showed similar or stronger antibacterial properties against five strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) E. coli and P. aeruginosa².

Ulmo honey also has a higher total polyphenol count compared to other honeys including sesame, rosemary, orange, chestnut, blackberry, honeydew, and more than double the phenolic content of Manuka Honey. This is due to the naturally occurring flavonoid and phenol compounds, found in the Ulmo flower’s nectar³.

Ulmo Honey contains more than double the phenolic content of Manuka honey. Known to promote anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunity-boosting activity in our bodies, these heavily studied health-promoting molecules are unmatched in our Ulmo Honey.

Powerful Complex of

Bioactive Ingredients

Polyphenols and flavonoids — antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial.

Polyphenols and flavonoids are both a powerful class of molecules that are known for their antioxidant, anti inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties⁴. These include phenols such as gallic and caffeic acids and flavonoids like querectin, rutin and more. All health promoting molecules that are supported by scientific evidence⁵.

Antioxidants protect our cells from the harmful action of reactive oxygen molecules called free radicals, preventing excessive oxidative stress that can cause inflammation and disease.

For instance, studies have shown that gallic acid possesses antimicrobial, anticancer, and antiviral properties, while rutin (also known as vitamin P), chrysin, and pinocembrin, all found in Ulmo Honey, exhibit anti-inflammatory, antiasthmatic, antitumor, and antimicrobial effects².
