ManukaRx Natural Skin Ointment Sample (4g)

WHAT IS MANUKA OIL?

Manuka oil is steam-distilled from the leaf and growth tips of the manuka plant. The slow steam-heating, all natural process causes the oil sacs in the leaves and bark to release, steam is vaporized and the oil distilled off. It is a gentle, small-batch process taking 5 hours and resulting in pure essential manuka oil. No chemicals are used in the extraction process.

The Power of Manuka Oil

• Antimicrobial: Mānuka oil contains β-triketones, natural compounds that kill or stop the growth of micro-organisms which stimulate the immune
  response in wounds, speeding up healing times.
• Antifungal: A 2014 study on the effect of mānuka oil on fungi found that the growth of T. mucoides and M. furfur were the most effectively
  inhibited.
• Antibacterial: A study, published in the Journal of Microbiology, found that mānuka oil significantly inhibited the growth of the bacteria S.
  aureus, S. mutans, S. sobrinus, and E. coli and also found it to be effective against some antibiotic-resistant ‘super bugs’, including MRSA.
• Anti-aging / antioxidant: A 2013 study showed that a topical application of mānuka oil suppressed the UV-B- induced increase in skin thickness
  and wrinkle grading in a dose-dependent manner and could suppress UV-B- induced skin inflammation by inhibiting the production of
  inflammatory cytokines.

Mānuka oil has also been shown to possess other biological properties; it is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, an antihistamine and an anti-allergen.
Mānuka oil has been proven to possess antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antiseptic, antihistamine and antifungal
properties.
