Manuka Honey is unique to New Zealand, the nectar being collected by the bees from the flower of the indigenous Manuka tree. Research at Waikato University has shown that all varieties of honey have some anti-bacterial activity.
There are a number of reasons for the antibacterial activity of honey. The high sugar content of all honey means there are few water molecules available, making it difficult for micro-organisms to establish, and the generally low pH is enough to inhibit many animal pathogens.

​The most common symptom of urinary tract infection is a painful, burning sensation when passing urine. Urinary tract infections are caused by bacteria entering the urethra and multiplying in the bladder. They are usually treated successfully with antibiotics prescribed by a doctor. Urinary tract infections are quite common, especially among women and children. 
Normal urine is sterile and contains no germs such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) occur when bacteria enter the urinary tract via the urethra. UTIs are most commonly caused by bacteria that normally live in the bowel.
The urinary tract consists of the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. The urethra is the opening to the urinary tract where urine comes out.
​UTI can be classified by the area of the urinary tract that it affects:

• When only the urethra is affected it is known as urethritis
• When the bladder is affected it is known as cystitis (the most common form of UTI)
• When the kidneys are affected it is known as pyelonephritis, which can cause kidney damage if left untreated.  

​A-OXITIVE ANTIOXIDANT DEFENCE SERUM 30ml airless pump bottle.

The highly concentrated Antioxidant defence serum reveals a visibly brighter, refreshed and more radiant complexion, with an ultra-light and refreshing texture.

A-Oxitive uses innovative Gradual Release which transforms Pro-Vitamin C into Pure Vitamin C when it comes in contact with the skin. This Pure Vitamin C is gradually released throughout the day for optimal efficacy, excellent tolerance and long-lasting antioxidant protection.

This means you get results equivalent to 15% Pure Vitamin C throughout the day, in a much gentler way.

Pharmacies may charge for extra services such as medicines delivery or packaging.
Prescriptions from specialists like dentists, dermatologists, ophthalmologists are $15.
There may be an additional cost if a prescription medicine is not fully subsidised.
Once patients and their families have collected 20 new prescription items in a year, they can get a prescription subsidy, which means they won’t have to pay any more prescription charges until 1 February the following year. 
​
What is a prescription subsidy?
​The subsidy is aimed at reducing costs for families and people who are prescribed a lot of medicines.
You become eligible for the subsidy once you have paid for 20 new prescription medicine items from 1 February each year. Once you're eligible, you do not have to pay any more prescription charges for the rest of that year (to 31 January).
You can reach the 20-item threshold by combining prescription items for your partner and dependent children aged from 14 up to 18.
Just tell your regular pharmacist the names of all the people in your family to help them keep track of how many items you've paid for.
This information is gathered electronically so you no longer need to keep your receipts.
Please note, as there is no prescription charge on items for children aged 13 and under, these items can’t be counted as part of the 20-item threshold.
