Nature's most extraordinary superfood, backed by decades of scientific research and thousands of years of traditional wisdom. At Hab Shifa, we bring you raw Manuka honey of uncompromising quality, harvested right here in Australia by native bees from the blossoms of the Leptospermum (Manuka) plant. If you're ready to upgrade your wellness routine with one of the most powerful natural honeys on earth, you've come to the right place.

Not all honey is created equal. While conventional honey has mild antibacterial properties thanks to naturally occurring hydrogen peroxide. Raw Manuka honey is different. It contains a unique bioactive compound called methylglyoxal (MGO) — a stable, potent antibacterial agent that maintains its strength regardless of heat or sunlight. This is the property that makes Manuka honey so remarkable, and so sought after by wellness enthusiasts around the world.

Understanding the MGO Rating: What Does It Mean?

At Hab Shifa, every batch is independently tested to ensure a minimum MGO rating of 100+ — so you know exactly what you're getting. No guesswork. No compromise.

MGO ratings and what it means:

MGO stands for methylglyoxal — the compound that gives Manuka honey its signature antibacterial power
The rating is measured in ppm (parts per million)
The higher the MGO, the greater the bioactive strength
MGO 100+ is the benchmark for genuine therapeutic-grade Manuka honey
