When used correctly, our 100% Pure Bee Pollen can help with allergies. Like a flu shot can help with the flu, pollen is what causes most allergies.

Please take with caution under your Doctors supervision. Enjoy! 

How Bee Pollen is Made:

Bee pollen is a mixture of flower pollen, nectar, enzymes, honey, wax, and bee secretions. It begins when foraging worker bees visit flowers to collect nectar and pollen. As she lands on a flower, microscopic pollen grains stick to her fuzzy body. The bee uses its legs, particularly specialized combs and brushes on its hind legs, to scrape this pollen off its body. It moistens the pollen with nectar or regurgitated honey and packs it into dense pellets stored in structures called "pollen baskets" (corbiculae) on its hind legs. 

Bee pollen is often hailed as a "superfood" due to its rich nutritional profile. It contains proteins (including essential amino acids), carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins (especially B-complex), minerals, enzymes, and antioxidants like flavonoids and carotenoids.  

1. Antioxidant Properties: Its antioxidants may help protect the body against damage from free radicals and reduce chronic inflammation.    
   
   
2. Immune System Support: Some studies suggest it might enhance immune function.  
3. Energy Boost: Often used by athletes and individuals seeking increased stamina and reduced fatigue, likely due to its nutrient density.    
4. Liver Health: Animal studies indicate potential protective effects on the liver.  
5. Wound Healing & Skin Health: May promote healing when applied topically or consumed.  
   
   

   However, it's crucial to note that individuals with pollen or bee sting allergies should avoid bee pollen, as it can cause severe reactions.  It's always wise to start with a very small amount to test for sensitivity and consult a healthcare provider before adding it to your diet, especially if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medications like blood thinners.
