Every jar clearly labelled indicating the UMF Grade and MGO (Methylglyoxal) measurement. Informative and supporting the customer with clarity. Nothing hidden and nothing misleading.

MGO is a measurement of the naturally occurring chemical Methylglyoxal. Our label clearly identifies and depicts both values.
