Why choose TheraHoney Products?
TheraHoney HD contains 100% pure and medical-grade Manuka honey, derived from the pollen and nectar of the Leptospermum Scoparium plant found in New Zealand. The honeycomb is used and harvested one time only; it is then carefully filtered, irradiated, and tested in a laboratory for high efficacy.
- Role of Sugar in Autolytic Debridement: 87% high sugar levels in TheraHoneyHD result in osmotic activity that helps in promoting autolytic debridement to clear away necrotic tissue, remove wound odor and maintain a moist wound environment appropriate for healing.
- Impact of Manuka Honey on Wound pH: Chronic and non-healing wounds mostly have an elevated alkaline environment, and lowering their pH can help wound healing. The use of Manuka honey dressings is associated with a statistically significant decrease in wound pH and a reduction in wound size.
- Reduced Necrotic Tissue and Wound Size: Using TheraHoneyHD, wounds significantly improve necrotic tissue and wound surface reduction over an average of 4 weeks.
The above illustration demonstrates how the osmotic action of Manuka honey draws up exudate from subcutaneous tissue to the wound surface, thereby removing debris, slough, and necrotic tissue.
