The latest research shows the healing qualities of Australian native stingless bee honey is superior to Manuka honey. This is due to the unique way that stingless bees store their honey. The honey pots are made from beeswax and botanical resins which contain high amounts of antibacterial, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. This not only preserves the honey, it also infuses the honey with unique flavours and superior healing qualities. One of nature's true miracles. Australian native stingless bee honey is superior in its ability to heal a wide range of skin conditions, wounds, infections and burns. Also, the type of sugar (trehalulous) found in the honey has an extremely low glycemic index and is not found as a major component in any other food. As a result, native stingless bee honey is showing promising results to regulate and combat diabetes. Research is also being conducted regarding the use of Australian stingless bee honey to fight antibiotic resistant bacteria and super bugs. It is incredible to think that this tiny little native bee has the ability to produce one of the worlds most superior healing and medicinal products. The beeswax produced by Australian native stingless bees is also super rich in antibacterial, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Combined with native bee honey,  it is these two components that form the basis of our skin lotion.
