South Africa’s Natural Alternative to Manuka Honey
Functional raw honey infused with medicinal botanicals
Experience the power of raw, ethically sourced South African honey blended with carefully selected organic botanicals to create targeted functional honeys that support immunity, energy, digestion and overall wellbeing
WILDCURE is a range of functional infused honeys made from ethically sourced raw South African honey combined with powerful natural botanicals to create a fusion of nature + science. Each infused honey blend is intentionally formulated to support the body’s natural resilience and can be used for daily wellness, seasonal immune support, internal nourishment, and topical application
Our system is built on the understanding that honey’s true strength lies not in a single compound, but in the synergy of many. This multi-pathway approach reflects the natural complexity of honey, where enzymes and botanicals work together to create a broader spectrum of activity than single-marker testing alone would display. Unlike standard honey products, our formulations are designed with measurable bioactivity and consistency in mind
Each blend is independently tested for TA (Total Activity), PA (Peroxide Activity) and NPA (Non-peroxide Activity), providing a measurable indication of antimicrobial activity + ensuring consistency from batch to batch. The result is a refined, effective alternative to conventional wellness products, grounded in nature, supported by science

Stopped Persistent Coughing Naturally
“Hi Ian, I want to thank you for introducing me to your powerful Amazonian eucalyptus honey. It helped me enormously when I developed continuous coughing spells. By taking a teaspoon first thing every morning for a few days, I am finally free from coughing. I’m amazed how quickly it soothed the cough.”
Instant Flu and Cough Relief
“I had a really bad flu with a constant cough. I tried WildCure Desert Red Honey and felt relief almost immediately. I was honestly surprised by how soothing it was.”
Rapid Cough Relief in Just Two Days
“This honey is fantastic. I’ve been taking it for my cough. It has most definitely helped over the last two days.”
Stubborn Rash Cleared in 2–3 Days
“I am incredibly impressed, like honestly… I’ve had this horrible rash flare-up on the inside of my elbow and forearm and I’ve tried absolutely every cream under the sun to get rid of it, and nothing has worked for weeks. I’ve now been applying the honey for the past 2–3 days (5 applications) and the rash is gone, it’s flipping gone. There’s no more itch, no more irritation, and the swelling has gone. I’m just really impressed.”
Infected Cut Healed Quickly with No Redness
“After accidentally causing a cut on my elbow which became red and infected, I used your amazing, powerful honey on it, covered it, and it healed very quickly. The redness went completely. I am extremely impressed. Many thanks”
Noticeable Improvement in Children’s Coughs
“I’ve been absolutely loving your honey, and my children’s coughs have noticeably improved after taking a spoon! I’m officially a fan.”
Stress-Induced Welts Cleared and Prevented
“Since using the honey, not only did it cure existing [stress-induced] welts, but now that I’m ingesting it, they are no longer coming through.”
Deeply Soothing for Mouth and Throat Relief
“The honey is an unctuous delight. I held it in my tender, aching mouth like a mouthwash. It is soothing in the extreme. I also had some on fresh Olympia ciabatta, divine. But I ration it! I’ve only just started on the full jar because I was lucky enough to have a sample. Thank you both.”
Gentle, Non-Irritating Healing for Sensitive Skin
“I had a peculiar topical, pimple-like condition on my vaginal area (external only) and used the honey directly on the area. It was non-irritant, soothing, and healing over a couple of days. It wasn’t regular thrush, and the WildCure honey was helpful. I know traditionally honey was used for wounds, especially topical ulcers, and I think this honey would be a great wound healer.”
Visible Reduction in Inflammation from First Use
“We started using the honey topically on Saturday and saw an immediate difference in the inflammation. At drop-off at crèche this morning, one of the teachers stopped my wife and said his face looks amazing and asked what we are using. When she asked my son, he said, ‘My daddy gave me honey from his boss.’ We haven’t gotten him to take it orally yet, but I’m confident we will get there. I’ll continue to update you on how things play out. Thank you again for the amazing product.”
This Honey Should Be Renamed “Magic” Honey!
"This honey has consistently worked wonders for my skin, helping with eczema, redness and even sunburn. Beyond its wellness benefits, the flavour is incredible. The Amazonian blend is my favourite. Having grown up in a family of beekeepers, I'm extremely particular about the honey I consume, both in flavour and ethical production. This honey ticks every box for me and I recommend it to everyone I can."
Immediate Relief From the Itching, and the Sores Reduced Over 3 Days
"Thank you very much for introducing me to your bionic honey! I had had horrible itchy open sores on the back of my neck for 4 months. I had tried many conventional remedies from my local pharmacy but to no avail. I applied your bionic honey directly on the sores and there was immediate relief from the itching, and the sores reduced over 3 days, and totally gone in a week! What bliss! I can’t thank you enough!"

Decoding honey potency: MGO, TA, PA + NPA/UMF explained
If you’ve searched for manuka honey, you’ve likely seen terms like MGO, TA, PA + NPA/UMF. These aren’t just labels; they’re measurable markers of potency
Understanding honey potency starts with how it’s measured. Traditional manuka systems focus on a single compound, MGO, offering a clear, standardised indicator of antibacterial strength. WILDCURE takes a broader view, measuring bioactivity across multiple pathways. By combining PA (Peroxide Activity), NPA (Non-Peroxide Activity) + TA (Total Activity), this approach reflects the full spectrum of honey’s natural power, where enzymes, botanicals, polyphenols + bee-derived resins work together. The result is a more complete reflection of potency, not just in numbers, but in how the honey supports real, everyday wellbeing
