What is
Bee Pollen ?
Pollen is
the male seed of flowers, created in the stamen within
the blossom of the plant.
Honeybees
collect the pollen and during the collection process it
is combined with secretions from the bee, as it is
worked from the stamen of the plant. The bee uses it's
tongue and mandibles to collect the pollen, it then
brushes the pollen from around it's mouth area using
it's forelegs and moves the now sticky substance towards
it's second pair of legs. The worker bee assembles a
mass of pollen, all of which has been mixed with the bee
secretion and moved to storage on the bees body and
legs. When the bee has collected sufficient pollen it
returns to the beehive to deposit the load.
Because of
the plant origin of bee pollen the actual
chemical composition of the pollen will vary depending
on location and season. Regardless of regional and
seasonal variations, the product is very rich in B
Vitamins 1,2,3,5,6 and B 12, contains Vitamin C, A and E
along with Carotenoids and Folic acid. Examinations of
the origin of collected pollen indicate that the
honeybees only collect pollens which are rich in
nitrogenous matter (amino acids), leaving lesser quality
pollen behind.
Around 20%
of bee pollen is composed of amino acids and proteins,
and it is extremely rich in Rutin.
A complete
food in every sense of the word, extensive tests have
concluded that life can be sustained on an exclusive
diet of bee pollen and water alone. Research from the
Royal Society of Naturalists stated: "The
nutritional tests supervised by the station at Bures on
hundreds of mice have demonstrated that pollen is a
complete food, that it is possible to let several
generations be born and live without the least sign of
distress while nourishing them exclusively on bee
pollen".
Correcting
our body chemistry, bee pollen can help supplement or
nutrient deficient diet and help with many conditions
including obesity.* Many athletes around the world
attribute their successes in large to using bee pollen
as effective sports nutrition to supplement their diets - sports

Dr. Betty
Lee Morales says: " Honeybee pollen is the
only known food which contains every essential nutrient
needed by mankind for perfect health. This fact can
hardly be disputed since it has been proven by chemical
analysis in the laboratories of the various world
community of nations, many, many times."
