One of the most powerful ingredients in my apothecary, and something I get dms about regularly: BEE POLLEN! So let's talk about it...
Pure Bee Pollen is a magical super-food that is a source of minerals, vitamins, and healthy acids.
It is the ideal medicinal aid: natural, cheap, and restores a body that is ravaged by health problems and infections of various types. Similar to natural honey, bee pollen benefits vary from cosmetic to health-related.
Bee pollen is used as a supplement to promote good health and maintain a healthy metabolism due to a rich nutritional content.
Among other healthy nutrients, pure bee pollen contains:
Vitamins A, E, D, B1, B2, B6, and C
Macronutrients calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, and potassium
Micronutrients iron, copper, zinc, manganese, silicon, and selenium
Folic acid and flavonoids
IMMUNE BOOSTING
It’s a natural remedy, and bee pollen-based medicine is a regular part of therapies. It has an antibiotic effect on the body; fighting off any attacking virus or microbe. Antioxidants that exist within the bee pollen also do their job in protecting the cells.
SPEEDS UP HEALING
People with low immunity and a delayed wound healing tendency might include bee pollen in their diet to speed up their healing capacity. It is believed that regular bee pollen consumption moisturizes the skin, kill bacteria, and improve blood circulation.
DETOXIFIES
With more than 200 substances chemically found in the pollen grains from different flowering plants, it is believed that bee pollen works as a detoxifying agent, expelling toxins from the body.
REDUCES STRESS
Just like natural honey, bee pollen is helpful in reducing stress due to its tendency to detoxify and provide nutritive chemical compounds. The nutrients in bee pollen can encourage blood supply to nerve tissues which enhance mental capacity and strengthens the nervous system, relieving stress. Studies show that consuming bee pollen can improve mood and even provide endurance and energy to the body.
ENERGY BOOSTING
Bee Pollen contains proteins and vitamins with lots of healthy carbohydrates. It adds proteins and prepares your body for future challenges. Bee Pollen is the storehouse of nutrients because of the presence of active substances found in pollen.
Since bee pollen is loaded with vitamins, proteins, enzymes, phenolic compounds, carbohydrates, and lipids and fats, it is reasonable to understand how daily consumption might help you overcome fatigue and a lack of energy.
SKIN SOOTHING
Bee Pollen adds amino acids and vitamins to your skin’s surface, helping regenerate dead cells faster. Bee Pollen can treat conditions such as rosacea, psoriasis, and infections. It is believed that bee pollen hydrates your skin. Bee Pollen might help in acne control due to the abundant amount of vitamin B and fatty acids that keep the skin plump and supple from the inside.
BREATHING AID
Bee Pollen can be used to treat asthma. By adding it to your diet, you add antioxidants to your body. The antioxidants fight any potential or existing inflammation in the lungs making it easier to breathe.When you breathe better, you give your body more oxygen. This means every process in the body speeds up, aiding in everything from weight loss to fighting infections.
ALLERGY AID
According to one study, 94% of all subjects with allergies benefited from ingesting bee pollen. They never experienced allergy problems again and continued having it in their diet.
BOOSTS DIGESTION
By adding bee pollen to your diet, improves intestinal flora. It improves the bacteria-antibody balance in your body, so you’ll be safer from incoming diseases and infections. Bee pollen contains lots of valuable enzymes that work to help your intestines and the rest of your body get all the necessary nutrients from food.
IMPROVES CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
Ruin – an essential antioxidant bioflavonoid contained in Bee Pollen, makes blood vessels stronger and improves blood circulation. Additionally, bee pollen removes excess cholesterol and destroys even the smallest blood clots and blockages.
TREATS INFERTILITY/BOOSTS LIBIDO
Bee pollen contains properties that improve ovarian function, and can correct fertility problems that have persisted for decades. Several studies have shown changes in fertility levels due to bee pollen. Bee pollen also boosts hormone levels and increases your libido.
HOW TO USE:
Probably the question asked most. You can simply eat bee pollen ‘as is’, add it to warm water and drink daily, or use it as an ingredient in your foods: salads, baked items or smoothies. I like to add it to my daily smoothies, salads, & breakfast bowls.
