Frequently Asked Questions

How do Mānuka honey lozenges help sore throats?

Mānuka honey's high methylglyoxal (MGO) content provides direct antibacterial activity against throat pathogens, while its anti-inflammatory properties reduce mucosal swelling and irritation. Allowing the lozenge to dissolve slowly in the mouth maximises contact time of the honey with the throat mucosa — prolonging its soothing and antibacterial effect on the affected tissue.

What does propolis add to the lozenge?

Bee propolis is a resinous compound collected by bees from tree buds and used to seal and sterilise the hive. It contains flavonoids, phenolic acids, and other bioactives with potent antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. In throat lozenges, propolis complements Mānuka honey's antibacterial action and provides antioxidant protection to the throat mucosa.

How is UMF 10+ verified in the lozenges?

Comvita uses UMF-certified Mānuka honey in their lozenges — sourced from Mānuka honey verified to UMF 10+ standard (MGO 263+, leptosperin, DHA all tested). The UMF Honey Association independently verifies the honey's authenticity and potency before it is used in Comvita's lozenge manufacturing.

How many lozenges should I take per day?

For sore throat relief: allow 1 lozenge to dissolve slowly in the mouth every 2–4 hours as needed. For general throat maintenance during cold and flu season: 2–4 lozenges daily. Do not chew — allow to dissolve slowly for maximum throat contact time. Suitable for adults and children over 2 years of age.

Are Comvita Mānuka Honey Lozenges suitable for diabetics?

Honey-based lozenges contain natural sugars. People with diabetes should consider their overall daily sugar intake and monitor blood glucose if consuming multiple lozenges daily. At 1–2 lozenges per day the sugar impact is small, but higher therapeutic doses should be managed alongside dietary sugar awareness. Consult your GP or dietitian if uncertain.
