The Manuka honey health benefits celebrities swear by

From Hollywood red carpets to private wellness routines, Manuka honey has become a staple among celebrities who prioritise natural health and beauty. What sets this golden nectar apart is more than just its rich flavour - it’s the scientifically recognised health benefits of Manuka honey that are inspiring global A-listers to make it part of their daily rituals.

Sourced from the native bushlands of Australia and New Zealand, Manuka honey is prized for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and immune-support benefits. It’s these unique qualities that have made it a go-to for celebrities - from actors and singers to athletes.

The A-listers embracing the health benefits of Manuka honey 

Kourtney Kardashian has long praised Manuka honey for its natural healing properties, incorporating it into her wellness and beauty routines. Known for her commitment to clean living, she uses Manuka honey as a go-to for everything, from skin nourishment to immune support - a reflection of her holistic approach to health.

Founder of wellness brand Goop, Gwyneth Paltrow, highlights Manuka honey as part of her curated wellness care packages. In a Goop article, she shared that these packages include liposomal vitamin C, herbal tea, and Manuka honey to support immune and gut health.

Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is also known to favour natural remedies and has incorporated Manuka honey into her diet, often enjoying it with steel-cut oats and fruit for breakfast. This aligns with her wellness-driven lifestyle and appreciation for natural health solutions.

Ed Sheeran reportedly keeps Manuka honey in his backstage rider to soothe and protect his voice before performances - a smart move backed by vocalists like Shawn Mendes who refers to Manuka honey as “magic”, and Ariana Grande who’s said to use Manuka honey lollipops for the same reason.

Even legendary actor, Sir Kenneth Branagh, has shared that he takes a spoonful of Manuka honey in his black coffee each morning — a delicious and effective way to boost overall wellbeing.

Beauty, strength and recovery: Manuka Honey for skin and sport

For those on screen, healthy skin is essential — and Manuka honey is a trusted part of many beauty routines, including Scarlett Johansson’s. Backed by science, Manuka honey's high MGO content delivers proven antibacterial and antimicrobial benefits, making it not just a skincare trend, but a potent, natural solution for skin healing and restoration.

In the world of sport, Novak Djokovic includes two spoonfuls of Manuka honey in his daily routine, drawn to its natural health-boosting properties. British Olympic cyclist and jockey Victoria Pendleton has also embraced Manuka honey, valuing its natural antimicrobial benefits as part of her wellness lifestyle.

Our award-winning, high MGO-rated Manuka honey was shared with A-list celebrity mums including Jennifer Lawrence, Priyanka Chopra, Kaley Cuoco, Olivia Munn, Elisabeth Röhm and Holly Robinson Peete -  introducing them to the unique potency and therapeutic benefits of our Australian Manuka honey.

A Hollywood visit to our Gold Coast hives

Biosota's connection to Hollywood goes beyond the gift bag for famous mums. Last year, actor Clancy Brown - known for The Shawshank Redemption and Dexter: New Blood - visited our hives on the Gold Coast while filming nearby.

His wife, Jeanne Johnson, a long-time Manuka honey enthusiast, inspired the visit. Clancy was eager to learn about our bees and sustainable practices, and we enjoyed exchanging insights - from ethical beekeeping to behind-the-scenes Hollywood stories.
