Help Prevent Gastric Ulcers
Gastric ulcers, known as stomach ulcers, are quite common and painful sores that could cause abdominal discomfort with no effective treatment. Scientists did a research and found out that manuka honey could promote healing of acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers in rats by possessing a potent antiulcer activity with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory abilities. Further studies and research are still needed for clinical trials but according to the research, manuka honey could serve as a functional food to promote better health. [3]
