Lanolin - the natural skin protector
----------------------------------------------
LANOLIN is the precious oily secretion from the skin of the sheep
accumulating in its wool. It is collected from the wool after the
sheep is shorn, so it doesn't involve any harm (dissection etc.)
to an animal unlike collecting all other animal oils used in health
& beauty products.
Lanolin is the Sheep’s natural nourisher & protector
against the elements. It must be good - no sheep complained yet!
While most moisturising creams & lotions use either vegetable
or mineral oils as a base, they don’t have the compatibility
to the oils of our skin that Lanolin has.
Being very similar to the human natural oils Lanolin makes perfect
replacement of our skin oils endlessly leached due to the
environmental effects & our way of life.
Bee honey - natural sweetener & a healing
substance.
And it's yummy!
---------------------
Natural sweetener, energy source, wound, skin burns and gastric
ulcers healing remedy, antibacterial and moisturising substance,
immune system stimulant, liver function balancer - honey does it
all.
Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugars with traces of sucrose,
glucose oxidase, hydrogen peroxide, phenolics, flavonoids, terpenes,
etc. The sugars make honey moisture absorbing and viscous.
Sugar concentration plus other factors such as low pH and the content
of hydrogen peroxide, the flavanoids, phenolic and terpenes make
honey antimicrobial or prevent microbal growth.
New Zealand nature produces one of the unique honeys - Manuka honey.
Manuka is a native New Zealand bush growing throughout the country.
"Active manuka honey" is the only honey
available for sale that is tested for its antibacterial activity
and is proven effective in wound healing and antibacterial treatment.
It contains an additional antibacterial component found only in
honey produced from Leptospermum plants: "unique manuka
factor" (UMF).

by By Peter Molan, PhD
Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Director of the Honey Research
Unit University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand, who researched
