In turn, medical-grade honey dressings can be applied against the skin to deliver antibacterial action coupled with hydrogen peroxide, antioxidant and osmotic properties.
For thousands of years, societies have used honey for medicinal purposes. In the present, medical-grade solutions help chronic and other delayed-healing wounds by providing antibacterial properties and balancing pH.
