New Regulations for Manuka Honey from New Zealand All the hype is about to come to an end as new testing procedures will separate Kanuka Honey from Manuka. For years some companies have been selling Kanuka as Manuka and this is the reason for big dif- ference in price. Lower priced Manuka is re- ally Kanuka. Some companies point to this in a grading system known as "K" factors. Others will use a pollen count method. Kanuka honey is a great New Zealand honey and does have similar healing properties to Manuka, but it is not Manuka and does not have any of the UMF factors (Unique Manuka Factors) or NPA (non-peroxide activity) that are only found in true Manuka Honey. How do you find out about the Manuka Honey? Simply ask the producing company to supply a COA (certificate of analysis) for the batch number that should be on the jar. No batch number? It may not be true Manuka. Pacific Resources International (PRI) was the first to introduce Manuka Honey to the U.S. in 1989, long before Manuka Honey was rated. PRI continues to offer the largest selection of Manuka as well as other Native New Zealand honeys that include Blue Bor- age and Multiflora. PRI was founded in 1984 for the sole purpose of bringing the finest New Zealand products to the U.S. and still only works direct with bee keeping families that are now into their 3rd generation of bee keeping. All of the honeys are packed in New Zealand under the strict government standards and tested no less than three times before leaving New Zealand. Every jar of Manuka honey can be traced via a batch number with a corresponding COA. PRI also imports one of the world's finest true sea salts that still contain all the natu- ral trace elements. Because there are clean oceans around New Zealand, the salt is sun- and wind-dried and does not have to be pasteurized. Pasteurization strips out the trace elements and only leaves the sodium chloride. There are also no additives. For more information, visit www .shoppri.com.
