New Zealand - According to reports, 4 out of 5 jars of manuka honey sold on the market is counterfeit. New Zealand produces only about 1,700 tons of manuka honey per year, but 10,000 tons are sold globally. The demand for this valuable variety of honey has created a market for counterfeit products sold as premium natural produce.

An executive at PURAO sheds light the issue of authenticity, “genuine manuka honey must carry MGO and Leptosperin markers, which are confirmed by independent laboratory testing.”

MGO is Methylglyoxal (MGO). It is naturally occurring in the nectar of the flowers of the Leptospermum species. It was discovered in 2008 that MGO is responsible for much of the unusual activity of New Zealand manuka honey. The presence of MGO is the best indicator of genuine manuka honey with antibacterial properties.

On the other hand, Leptosperin is unique to New Zealand manuka trees. It is naturally occurring and therefore, it cannot be replicated in factories.
