Frequently Asked Questions
Got a question about HoneyCure? Check out frequently asked questions and answers below!
+ How does HoneyCure work?
HoneyCure works through the practice of wet wound healing. This is when a wound is kept moist during the healing process. To practice this way of healing, you apply any wound care ointment and a bandage to the wound as it heals. The dressings act as a barrier against germs, dirt, and debris. Cells prefer a moist environment to heal, so this helps to prevent inflammation, minimize scar tissue formation, and encourage overall better healing.
+ What is Manuka honey?
UMF 15+ Manuka honey is the main active ingredient in HoneyCure! Native to New Zealand, Manuka honey is made from bees foraging off the Manuka bush. UMF stands for Unique Manuka Factor and is a graded scale set by the Unique Manuka Factor Honey Association that signifies the quality and purity of Manuka honeys. If a Manuka honey has a UMF rating of 10 or higher, it is considered to be medical grade. That’s why in HoneyCure we use UMF 15+ Manuka honey!
+ How much HoneyCure should I apply to the wound?
Apply a thin layer of HoneyCure to the wound and surrounding area.
+ How do I remove HoneyCure from my pet’s wound?
To remove HoneyCure, run warm water over the wound. This will cause the ointment to soften and easily wash away. You can gently use your hands to help rub it away, but it is not necessary. Do not pull or scratch at the wound when the ointment is dry. This can cause further damage to the wound or pull the pet’s hair out.
+ Should I be worried about my pet consuming HoneyCure?
Our unique formula discourages your pet from licking, scratching, or biting the affected area because of its unappealing taste and odor. HoneyCure is not intended to be consumed, but in case your animal does lick their wound, it is non-toxic.
+ What happens if HoneyCure becomes grainy?
If the honey crystallizes and becomes grainy, it is easy to bring it back to its liquid form! Crystallization is a natural process that does not affect the benefits of honey, only changes the color and texture. Place the container in a warm water bath for around 30 minutes and the ointment should soften.
