The Christie Hospital in Didsbury, Manchester, UK is studying the effects of New Zealand Manuka honey on mouth and throat cancer patients.
The Manchester Royal Infirmary, which has been using the Manuka honey since May, have had success using it on special honey-coated surgical dressings that can help fight antibiotic-resistant infections. They have been purchasing 880 pounds of the honey so far as it seems to reduce inflammation and reduce the instances of MSRA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) Volunteers in the hospital have been administered the honey in their treatment.
While looking into Manuka Honey I have found a website that claims various medical benefits of the honey. There is also a piece on the BBC.
