Manuka honey
Manuka honey is produced by bees who pollinate the flower of the Leptospermum scoparium, or manuka bush.
The manuka plant is native to New Zealand, and manuka honey contains over 2,000 individual natural compounds, twentyfold more than ordinary pasture-type honeys such as clover.

Protecting the manuka honey brand
Many consume manuka honey for wellness reasons. However, many just like the thicker, creamier taste of manuka honey, which undergoes a creaming process.
The unique New Zealand flair has brought on an onslaught of controversy. The manuka plant goes by many other names, such as Tea Tree and Red Damask. The shrub is native to New Zealand, but other countries also seek to capitalize on this goldmine. New Zealand has taken Australia to court because New Zealand beekeepers don't want the Australian version to be called manuka honey.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
