Gastric and manuka

Hello
I have a bloating stomach everyday and i couldnt eat much. Even when i eat little , those food arent digested well resulted more bloat.
Ive heard that manuka honey could help with digestive, but some manuka are rip off. Has anyone has their gastric problem healed with manuka honey ? And what brand of manuka honey you used

Thanks you

Greetings Soul33,

I have had Gerd for a year now, and tried the Manuka honey after a flight medical doctor suggested it. I am now completely off Nexium.

The key to Manuka honey is a rating called the "UMF factor". Avoid anything that says Manuka that does not have this rating. There was a UK government statistic I saw that said more fake Manuka is sold every year than has ever been produced in history.

The brand I am using right now is "comvita", however, I have an order in for a bulk batch of honey from ebay which is made by "Mossops".

Dr suggested a dosage of UMF 15 or higher three times a day (anything over UMF 18 means it has undergone a man made process to concentrate the active ingredients)

I have had good results with only UMF 10+ honey. Although, to be fair, I probably take it 5-6 times a day

Hope that helps.

If anyone knows of other, non pharma GERD treatments please let me know. I suffered badly from the nexium and Gaviscon side effects.
