  2. Add approximately 60 ml (2 oz) of clean water, stir thoroughly.

Results Interpretation
Use the color chart within the test. If no GOx enzyme activity is detected in the sample, the test strip color will remain unchanged. The color of the test strip may differ from the color in the table, as honey naturally contains dyes. The test is not suitable for certain types of honey, specifically Manuka honey. The test is intended for home use, a full analysis of enzymes can only be carried out under laboratory conditions.

What sets honey apart from other foods?

Honey is unique due to the presence of glucose oxidase, an enzyme found only in honey. When diluted, this enzyme produces hydrogen peroxide, a natural antibacterial agent. While other foods may contain more vitamins or polyphenols, honey’s distinct health benefits stem from this enzyme, making it a natural wonder.

What about a tracking number and a money-back guarantee?

Currently, the Active Honey Test is an innovative product in the research phase. While we don’t offer a money-back guarantee, you can receive the testing kit completely free of charge if you're hesitant.

The best investment in my family’s health

Here in Canada, it's the peak of cold and flu season. I've always trusted honey as the best natural remedy for colds. I used to buy honey from what I believed were the top beekeepers in the country, often labeled as raw or unheated. Imagine my disappointment when honey from Manitoba showed no activity in the test. However, honey from the mountainous regions of Quebec did not disappoint. This test has been the best investment in my family's health. Now, I know which honey to buy and where to get it. Highly recommend!

3 types of honey tested

Great product for anyone concerned about the quality of their honey. I've tested three different brands, and it helped me make better choices. The only downside is that it's a bit costly.

The testing kit includes 5 test strips, which is enough to test 5 samples of honey.

Doubt if it works

I tested the most pricey honey in my collection, from Australia, and the results came back with nothing! I was really expecting more. Not too happy with this experience.

The test is not suitable for some types of honey, specifically for manuka.
