The Washington Post published this brief note about using Manuka Honey for the h. pylori stomach ulcer causing bacteria...

"l first tried Manuka Honey about six years ago when I had symptoms of a stomach ulcer ("Sweet Salve", August 7. Several online sources claimed the honey's antimicrobial properties could effectively treat h. pylori, the bacterium responsible for most peptic ulcers. Intrigued, I ordered a jar of Manuka Honey UMF 16 from an apiari in Hamilton, New Zealand, took a teaspoonful of the dark, oddly flavored honey by mouth twice daily, and within a week my stomach discomfort was completely gone. i have since used the honey for other medicinal applications, including burns and abrasions."
