For centuries, the ancient forests of Western Australia have guarded a rare and precious treasure - Marri honey. This golden elixir is harvested from the nectar of the Marri tree also known as the Red Gum tree, which has long been revered as a medicine tree by the indigenous Noongar people of the region for its unparalleled medicinal properties. Yet, until recently, the world has remained largely unaware of the remarkable health benefits of Marri honey. KOORA is the first to bring Marri Honey to the United States of America! What is Marri Honey? Marri honey is a unique and exceptional variety of honey, native to the pristine Jarrah forests of Western Australia. Produced by industrious honeybees that thrive in these ancient woodlands, free from agricultural chemicals, pesticides and pollution. Marri honey is distinguished by its golden amber hue, deliciously sweet flavor, and most importantly, its broad spectrum of potent therapeutic benefits. You might have heard about the more commonly known Manuka honey from New Zealand. While both honeys share some similarities in their antibacterial and antioxidant properties, Marri honey stands out for its far higher bioactive antimicrobial potency, exceptional prebiotic benefits and lower glycemic index. The Health Benefits of Marri Honey Marri honey's unique composition sets it apart as a true natural superfood, offering a wealth of health-promoting properties that far surpass those of its more famous neighbour from New Zealand, Manuka honey. Antimicrobial Properties One of the most remarkable features of Marri honey is its potent antimicrobial activity. Numerous studies have demonstrated that Marri honey is highly effective in inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus. The increase in antibiotic resistance is making standard treatments increasingly ineffective. This has led to more research and growing awareness of Jarrah honey and Marri honey as natural remedies for treating various bacterial infections, both internally and topically. As stated in Research into Western Australian honeys by Dr Rob Manning, "Western Australian honeys derived from Marri (Corymbia calophylla) and Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata) trees were found to have consistently high antimicrobial activity... The activity of the two endemic species was about 90% greater than the average activity of New Zealand's manuka honey." Antioxidant Power Marri honey is also a rich source of antioxidants, which play a crucial role in neutralizing free radicals and protecting the body from oxidative stress. These antioxidants, including polyphenols and flavonoids, have been shown to help reduce inflammation, support immune function, and even potentially lower the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Prebiotic Benefits Another health benefit of Marri honey is its exceptional prebiotic properties. Prebiotics feed the beneficial bacteria in our gut, promoting a healthy and balanced microbiome. Marri honey is particularly high in prebiotic compounds, making it an invaluable tool for daily support of digestive health and overall well-being. Low Glycemic Index (GI) Unlike many other types of honey, Marri honey has a remarkably low GI of 46, meaning it does not cause a rapid spike in blood sugar levels. This makes it an excellent choice for individuals with diabetes or those looking to maintain stable blood sugar levels, as it can be enjoyed in moderation without the same metabolic impact as other sweeteners. In contrast, Manuka honey has a moderate glycemic index, which spikes blood sugar higher. Marri Honey vs. Manuka Honey While Manuka honey has gained widespread recognition for its medicinal properties, Marri honey offers a unique set of benefits that set it apart. Both honeys share some similarities, but Marri honey's superior antimicrobial potency, exceptional prebiotic qualities and low glycemic index give it distinct advantages. Another significant advantage of Marri honey is that its benefits are NOT derived from high methylglyoxal (MGO), the active ingredient that makes Manuka honey valuable. While MGO has antibacterial properties, it's also associated with numerous health risks. Moreover, Marri honey is produced in a pristine, glyphosate-free environment, ensuring that it is free from harmful synthetic pesticides and herbicides. This makes it an even more attractive choice for those seeking a pure and natural alternative to Manuka honey.
