Wow! This stuff really works for me! I get a lot of pain, muscular, joint and nerve pain and have taken all sorts of stuff to manage the pain. I can honestly say this stuff has helped me more than I thought it would, having been on high doses of tramadol that didn’t seem to help much and had pretty yucky side affects. I was sceptical but I’m so grateful for the chance I gave it! There is hope out there guys, for me it came in the form of bee venom. Blessings…

20 years ago I had great difficulty walking up stairs due to arthritis in my knees. I started taking nectar ease and within a month the stairs were not a problem any more. I still take a 1/2 teaspoon every night. It is a wonderful product and I have recommended it to many people over the years

Noh Chan My wife suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis on her both fingers 10 years. She took 2 bottles of Nectar Ease Manuka honey added Bee Veron and was completely cured. Few months ago she started to suffer her finger again with Rheumatoid Arthritis. She is taking a bottle of Nectar Ease Manuka honey added Bee Veron now and she is getting better and better. I am recommending Nectar Ease Manuka honey added Bee Veron to my friends in South Korea who have Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Started taking Manuka Honey with added BEE VENOM a month ago and have found the symtems of arthritis to be diminishing. Was at a stage of hardly being able to walk in the cold weather, but now the toe joints are much more manageable. Started with a 1/4 teaspoon as recommended, felt a little tightening in the throat, but now am up to a comfortable 1 teaspoon with no adverse reaction at all. Highly recommend this product……

Science of Honey
The composition of a honey batch depends on the floral source(s) available to the bees that produced the honey. The carbohydrates comprise mainly Fructose (about 38%) and Glucose (about 31%). Water is the next highest category, varying around 17%. Other carbohydrates include Maltose (7%), and Sucrose and other complex carbohydrates (7%). Trace amounts of Vitamins, Minerals, Chrysin, Pinobanksin, catalase and Pinocembrin are also present. Research published in 2011 shows the most abundant minerals found in New Zealand mono-floral honeys (Clover, Honeydew, Kamahi, Manuka, Nodding Thistle, Rata, Rewarewa, Tawari, Thyme and Viper’s Bugloss honey) are potassium, phosphorus and calcium. Heavy metal contents (Cd, Pb and Zn) were very low.
Healing properties
The healing properties of honey are due to the fact it offers antibacterial activity, maintains a moist wound condition and its high viscosity helps to provide a protective barrier to prevent infections. The antimicrobial activity in most honeys is due to hydrogen peroxide, however, Manuka Honey displays significant antibacterial effects even when hydrogen peroxide is blocked, which is why we used to refer to the non-peroxide activity of Manuka Honey before research demonstrated this was the result of the presence of Methylglyoxal. Read more about honey, medicinal property and antibacterial care here.
Manuka Honey
Manuka Honey is unique to New Zealand and its healing properties have been a traditional part of folklore throughout New Zealand’s settled history. Ongoing laboratory and medical evidence using Manuka Honey supports the worth of this valuable resource.
Manuka Honey testing and labelling
We support the release of the Interim Labelling Guidelines for Manuka Honey released by the New Zealand Government in 2014 as it provides greater assurance for consumers looking for genuine New Zealand Manuka Honey.
The Ministry of Primary Industries has identified Methylglyoxal (MG) as an ingredient that can be identified in labelling and marketing Manuka honey, expressed as a minimum number of mg/kg. Scientific evidence has confirmed Methylglyoxal as being a key compound that occurs naturally in Manuka honey. We test all our Manuka Honey according to these standards. Visit our Batch Track page to obtain a copy of test results for your jar of Manuka Honey.

Research shows that the human digestive system has a hard time breaking down Oligosaccharides. Almost 90% escapes digestion in the small intestine and reaches the colon where it performs a different function; that of a prebiotic. Prebiotics support the growth of certain kinds of bacteria in the colon. These bacteria produce many beneficial substances including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and certain B-vitamins. There is also evidence they may promote further absorption of minerals that have escaped the small intestine like calcium and magnesium. Research into SCFAs is quite new but shows possible benefits include protecting colon tissue from damage including colon cancer and ulcerative colitis, lower cholesterol, lower triglycerides, and improved immune system function.
Honeydew Honey also contains higher levels of antioxidants and minerals compared to other floral honeys.
A study published in 2014 shows that people with chronic leg ulcers who were treated with Honeydew honey experience a significant decrease of the average wound area and nearly three quarters of patients reported a decrease in pain levels. Based on the findings of this research, honeydew honey has the potential to be one of the medical-grade honeys.

The science behind Bee Venom is still developing and researchers continue to find new uses for it. We add small quantities of Bee Venom to Manuka Honey to create our hugely successful ‘Aches and Pains’ honey Nectar Ease and this also forms the basis for our Royal Nectar skincare range.
Bee venom composition
Bee Venom composition and strength varies between Honeybee species and small variances are identifiable between bee breeds and locations.
Bee Venom contains a variety of peptides, including melittin, apamin, adolapin, the mast-cell-degranulating (MCD) peptide, enzymes (i.e., phospholipase A(2)), biologically active amines (i.e., histamine and epinephrine), and nonpeptide components which have a variety of pharmaceutical properties.
Bee Venom’s unique composition has multiple effects on the body. The natural components of Bee Venom have been isolated and studied scientifically and one of the most important components has been identified as Melittin. Making up about 50% of the Bee Venom, Melittin is recognised as being a powerful anti-inflammatory.
Bee venom uses
Bee venom has been used as a traditional medicine to treat arthritis, rheumatism, back pain, cancerous tumors, and skin diseases. Studies have proven the effectiveness of bee venom in treating pathological conditions such as arthritis, pain and cancerous tumours.
Bee Venom has been reported to have anti-arthritis effects in several arthritis models. Melittin, a major peptide component of BV, has anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritis properties.
Bee venom as a cosmetic ingredient may be useful as a topical agent for promoting skin regeneration or a treatment of certain epidermal conditions, according to research published in South Korea in 2015. This showed that bee venom serum treatment clinically improved facial wrinkles by decreasing total wrinkle area, total wrinkle count and average wrinkle dept.
The mechanism by which bee-venom serum exerts its anti-wrinkle effects is yet unknown, however, the therapeutic action of bee venom has been studied mostly for skin-related symptoms. When skin bacteria were incubated with bee venom, a bacteriostatic action of bee venom was demonstrated, which was further supported by its anti-inflammatory activity against skin bacteria through suppression of the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This same research showed that people suffering from acne benefited from treatment with bee venom.
Bee venom extraction
The Bee Venom used in Nectar Ease is extracted exclusively from the Apis Melifera species of Honeybee. Bee Venom is extracted from Honeybees using low voltage electrical stimulation. Bee keepers use a so-called collection frame which has wire electrodes installed that have a low electrical current running through them on a glass base, just like in the picture above. These frames are installed in honey hives and bees that come into contact with the wire electrodes will receive a small electrical shock. This causes bees to sting the glass, releasing the venom without losing their barbed sting (which usually results in bee deaths).
Once the collection process has finished, the Bee Venom dries on the glass, then the whole frame is transported to a laboratory to collect the venom.
