EAT YOUR WAY TO HEALTH WITH RIVERSDALE MANUKA HONEY
Spread a little health on your wholemeal toast every day with Riversdale Manuka Honey.
Available from Julian Graves, this delicious honey could offer considerable health benefits including stimulating the immune system to help fight infections.
The honey, harvested from the Manuka tree found only in New Zealand, contains a unique antibacterial property - known as Unique Manuka Factor (UMF) - not found in other honeys.
And the higher the UMF number, the more powerful the healing properties are reputed to be.
Studies have shown Manuka honey may be effective when applied externally in helping to heal skin and diabetic ulcers, infected wounds, burns, boils, cracked skin, pressure sores, eczema and dermatitis.
Riversdale Manuka Honey is available in store in two strengths: UMF 5+ with a RRP of £8.99; and UMF 10+, RRP is £12.99.
