How Much Manuka Honey Per Day – Finding the Right Amount for You

If you’re thinking about adding Manuka honey to your daily routine, you might be wondering — how much should I actually take?

There’s no official rule, but many people include it in small, consistent amounts. It’s less about loading up, and more about keeping it simple and sustainable.

Start with a Teaspoon

A common approach is one teaspoon per day — either straight from the spoon or mixed into something warm like herbal tea or lemon water. That’s often enough to make it part of your routine without overthinking it.

Our MGO 100+ Manuka Honey is a great place to start if you’re looking for an everyday option.

Can You Have More?

Some people choose to take a little more — one teaspoon morning and night, for example — especially if they’re using a lower MGO level like 100+. Others stick to smaller amounts of a higher MGO honey, like 400+, and use it more intentionally or occasionally.

There’s no need to overdo it. A small amount of high-quality Manuka honey goes a long way.

It Also Depends on the MGO Level

The MGO number on your jar is a helpful guide. It indicates the honey’s strength — and can help you decide how much (and how often) to use it:

  • MGO 100+ – perfect for daily use

  • MGO 200+ – a bit stronger, suitable for more targeted use

  • MGO 400+ – high-strength, often used in smaller amounts or topically

When to Take It

There’s no best time — but many people enjoy it:

  • First thing in the morning

  • Before bed

  • After meals

  • Before or after being outdoors in colder weather

It comes down to what feels good and fits with your lifestyle.

Final Thoughts

There’s no set dose for Manuka honey — just a general sense of balance. Start with a teaspoon a day, adjust depending on the MGO level and your personal habits, and enjoy the process.
