This week’s show brought to you by:

Manukora Honey

Are you looking for a delicious way to spice up your pre-run snacks and make them healthier?

Then you need to try Manukora honey.

Not only is it hands-down the best honey I’ve ever tasted, Manukora Honey contains powerful nutrients to support immunity and gut health.

The bees collect the nectar from the Manuka tea tree in New Zealand. The nectar is packed with bioactives and the honey that is produced has 3 times more antioxidants and prebiotics than your average honey.

A special antibacterial compound called MGO also comes from the nectar of the tea tree.

Manukora third party tests every single harvest for MGO and makes these results available through their QR system.

It’s a game changer, and all you need is 1 heaped teaspoon each morning to get the most out of the amazing bioactives in Manuka.

I love it in the morning before my runs and I’ve found myself craving it as I wake up.

Now, it’s easier than ever to try Manukora Honey. Head to manukora.com/RTTT to get $25 off the Starter Kit, which comes with an MGO 850+ Manuka Honey jar, 5 honey travel sticks, a wooden spoon, and a guidebook!
