Lacto Fermented Raw Pollen is inspired by natural fermentation processes used by the bees themselves. It provides a unique nootropic product. With an understanding of byproducts, they have developed a technique that enables a safe and slow fermentation of raw pollen and honey with the help of natural lactic acid bacteria. 125 grams in a dark glass jar that lasts for 21 days.
Lacto Fermented Raw Pollen
After many years of observing beehive behavior and more than 10 years of research in natural fermentation, Ballot Flurin has reproduced the same pollen transformation process that bees themselves use.
Bees don't eat nectar or pollen directly, but instead mix and transform it naturally through complex enzymatic processes and fermentation processes with the help of bacteria present in the beehive. These microorganisms constitute an essential part of the bees' health and help them create everything they need to survive the winters and thrive during the warmer months.
Bee pollen is one of the most complete, nutritious foods found in nature and contains, among other things, almost all known vitamins and minerals, all essential amino acids, most enzymes and coenzymes that the body needs, and antioxidants. All these nutrients are in
in its most bioavailable form and easily digestible for the body.
Adult Dosage: 1 teaspoon per day. Best taken in the morning. Note: should not be taken if allergic to bee products. This pollen has a strong sweet and sour taste due to the fermentation process. Take as a course for 21 days.
Note: Not for young children, pregnant or nursing women. Can be given to children from 7 years of age.
Gradual increase in dosage is recommended. Start with a smaller dose (approx. ¼ teaspoon) of bee pollen. It's better to eat a little and then increase the dose. Preferably mix the pollen with your saliva in your mouth before swallowing. Can also be mixed with honey or juice. You can also soak a teaspoon in water overnight and drink it for breakfast.
Some people who consume pollen may initially experience mild forms of gastrointestinal irritation, headache, or nausea due to the bee pollen's rich nutritional content and potency. Therefore, it is recommended to start with
take a smaller dose.
NOTE: Sometimes (very rarely) someone may be allergic to bee pollen. Unusual allergic reactions can include swelling, heart palpitations, and difficulty breathing. If you have never eaten bee pollen before, you can try placing one granule under your tongue to see if it causes any reaction. Then take two granules each day to slowly build up to one teaspoon per day if you don't notice any reaction.
Storage: Best used within 30 days after opening. Can be stored at room temperature, away from light and heat, before opening. After opening, the jar should be stored in the refrigerator.
Weight: 125 grams in a dark glass jar that lasts for 21 days.
How is Ballot-Flurin's bee pollen produced?
When bees collect nectar from flowers to make honey, they also collect pollen by rubbing against the inside of the flower. This is what makes the bees "fertilize" the flowers on their journey between them, and makes it
the bees "pollinate" the flowers on their journey between them, making it possible for plants to reproduce. Through evolution, honey bees have developed to collect only the best, most nutritious pollen they can find, and invest considerable time and energy to do this.
For only a few hours per day (to avoid stressing the bees), our beekeepers place "pollen traps" on the hives, which capture some of the pollen that the bees have collected when they return home from France and Spain. (They are only allowed to take 300 units per month).
Natural bacteria provide a slow, spontaneous fermentation made from raw mountain honey. A Slow-Tech transformation process that takes 80 days enriches the raw bee products with natural enzymes. The magic of fermentation causes the raw pollen to react with the other ingredients, resulting in a lactic acid fermentation.
