Description
Berringa Australian Manuka Honey is free from most allergens, including nuts and seeds, lactose, gluten, and doesn't contain artificial colours or preservatives. It's suitable for vegetarians, coeliacs, and those who are lactose intolerant. However, as with anything edible, allergies and other medical conditions should always be kept in mind. Some things to note: Avoid honey if you are allergic to bees, or allergic to the pollen from which the honey is made. Honey consumption is not recommended for people following the FODMAP diet. Topical use may be suitable, but please conduct a skin patch test initially. Honey can increase blood sugar levels, so diabetics should be aware if consuming honey. There's a risk that honey can interfere with some drugs or therapies, including some chemotherapy drugs. Honey is safe for pregnant women, but avoid medicinal amounts or topical use. Raw honey is not recommended for consumption in children under 12 months of age because there is a risk of botulism poisoning.
