Manuka Hydrolat – Wirkweise und Anwendung

Manuka Hydrolat - Mode of Action and Application

The indigenous people of New Zealand, the Maori, used the Manuka plant for healing hundreds of years ago. The leaves and bark of the South Sea myrtle were recognised as a remedy. They were crushed and brewed into a tea. Because of the tea that the Maori made from the bark and leaves, the South Sea Myrtle has also become known as Tea Tree. Equally well known is the Manuka honey, which can now also be bought in Europe. Manuka hydrolate does not have the "refining" process by bees that honey does, but the plant's special ingredients can still be extracted.
