Mélium Stingless Bee Honey is an exceptionally rare honey produced by stingless bees (Melipona), a tropical species native to the pristine rainforests of Malaysia. Unlike conventional honey, it is naturally tangy, low in sugar, and rich in more than 200 bioactive compounds including phenolics, flavonoids, and organic acids. Every jar of Mélium is harvested in small batches, unheated, unblended, and verified by independent laboratories for authenticity and purity. From hive to jar, it remains completely natural — raw, non-pasteurized, and free from additives or contaminants.
Stingless Bee Honey is widely studied for its unique bioactive profile and low glycemic composition. Independent laboratory analyses show antioxidant activity up to five times higher than medical-grade Manuka honey.Traditional and scientific research suggests it may support:
• Skin and wound care through its naturally acidic pH and antimicrobial properties.
• Gut and digestive balance, aided by trehalulose — a rare slow-release sugar not found in other honeys.
• Immune and antioxidant protection through its high phenolic and flavonoid content.
• Natural energy and focus, with gentler glucose release compared to high-sucrose honeys.
While both are highly bioactive, they differ in origin and composition. Manuka honey comes from New Zealand’s Leptospermum scoparium flower; stingless bee honey is gathered from diverse tropical flora by Melipona bees in Malaysian rainforests.Scientific studies show stingless bee honey contains:
• Up to 5× higher antioxidant levels than Manuka honey.
• Naturally low glycemic sugars (no sucrose detected).
• Over 200 distinct bioactive compounds contributing to its therapeutic potential.
Where Manuka is monofloral, Mélium represents a complex rainforest ecosystem — an unblended superfood source of natural wellness.
True stingless bee honey is exceptionally scarce. Each hive produces only a few hundred grams of honey per harvest — far less than standard bee species. The harvest process requires precision and care, as stingless bees store their honey in small resin-lined pots inside the nest rather than wax combs. Combined with limited production, small-batch testing, and the high cost of certification and transport from remote rainforest regions, Mélium Stingless Bee Honey stands among the rarest and most valuable natural honeys in the world.
Although not certified organic, Mélium follows the same principles. Our stingless bees forage deep within the untouched Malaysian rainforest — far from agricultural activity, pesticides, or pollutants. Every batch is independently lab-tested and verified to ensure: • No artificial additives, flavorings, or preservatives.
• No detectable pesticide residues or heavy metals.
• Compliance with strict microbiological and purity standards.
The result is 100% pure, wild honey — nothing added, nothing removed.
Mélium is not graded under the UMF™ or MGO systems — these were developed specifically for New Zealand Manuka honeys. However, Mélium’s independent testing shows antioxidant activity up to five times higher than the highest-grade medical Manuka honeys (UMF 25+ / MGO 1450+). While Manuka honeys are monofloral, Mélium represents a multi-botanical rainforest system — yielding greater diversity in phenolic compounds and natural bioactivity. It stands as a next-generation alternative to conventional Manuka classifications.
Mélium is among the first to apply pharmaceutical-level laboratory testing and batch certification to stingless bee honey. Our commitment to purity, science, and traceability aligns with the highest international standards in natural food manufacturing. Each jar is verified through independent laboratories for antioxidant capacity, phenolic content, and absence of contaminants.
Mélium jars are produced from laboratory-grade glass designed to protect the bioactive integrity of the honey. Glass is inert, fully recyclable, and ensures there is no migration of materials or alteration of taste, pH, or antioxidant content. Each jar and lid is BPA-free and compliant with USFDA 21 CFR 177.1630 and EU food-contact regulations, guaranteeing safety, purity, and stability for long-term storage.
Yes — stingless bee honey is a natural food product suitable for all ages except infants under 12 months, as recommended for all honeys worldwide. This precaution is due to the general risk of infant botulism associated with any raw honey, not Mélium specifically.
Mélium is a nutritional and functional food honey, not a sterile medical-grade dressing. While independent studies show strong antimicrobial activity and naturally acidic stability, Mélium is not sterilized for medical application. For wound management, only sterile medical-grade formulations produced under clinical manufacturing standards should be used.
Nothing. Mélium contains 100 % pure stingless bee honey — no additives, preservatives, flavorings, or antibiotics. Our partner apiaries operate within isolated rainforest zones free from agricultural contamination. Every batch is third-party tested to verify purity, absence of heavy metals, and full compliance with food-safety standards.
As a natural food, Mélium can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. For general wellness, one teaspoon (5–10 g) daily is sufficient to benefit from its natural antioxidants and trehalulose-based slow-release energy. It may be taken directly, mixed with warm water or tea, or used in culinary applications.
Store your jar in a cool, dry environment — such as a pantry or cupboard — away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Refrigeration is not required. Always seal tightly after use to preserve the honey’s natural aroma, enzymatic activity, and moisture balance.
Stingless bee honey is naturally variable, reflecting seasonal nectar sources and regional flora. Color may range from light amber to deep reddish-brown, and texture may be fluid or slightly viscous depending on humidity and natural sugar ratios. This variation is a hallmark of authenticity — an expression of each harvest’s unique rainforest terroir.
Because of the global demand for specialty honeys like Manuka, counterfeit or diluted products have become increasingly common. Authentic, high-grade honeys can always be identified by scientific verification, traceable origin, and regulatory compliance — not by packaging or claims alone. To verify authenticity, here’s what to look for:
1. Independent Laboratory Testing
Every genuine medicinal or functional honey should have laboratory verification.Mélium is tested by accredited laboratories using internationally recognized methods, measuring key bioactive parameters such as total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, and pH stability.
2. Batch Certification & Traceability
Each Mélium jar carries a batch reference linked to its laboratory certificate of analysis.This ensures full traceability — from the rainforest harvest site to independent testing — verifying purity, moisture content, and absence of contaminants.
3. Origin Verification
Mélium is collected exclusively in Malaysia’s tropical rainforests, where stingless bees thrive naturally.It is never blended with imported or commercial honey, ensuring regional authenticity and unbroken supply chain integrity.
4. Purity & Composition Reports
Mélium’s COA confirms no sucrose detected, low GI profile, and over 200 natural bioactive compounds — data points that can be independently verified by third-party laboratories.
5. Regulatory Compliance
Mélium follows FDA and EU food-safety standards for honey testing and packaging. All analyses are performed under ISO/IEC 17025-certified conditions, ensuring the same scientific rigor as pharmaceutical testing.
While Manuka honey uses the UMF™ grading system (based on markers such as MGO and leptosperin), Mélium applies an equivalent level of scientific scrutiny — but focused on its own unique rainforest bioactives.
In other words: UMF™ grades Manuka; laboratory verification certifies Mélium.
