Organic Bee Pollen
Bee pollen is one of the most complete, nutritious foods found in nature. The secret behind bee pollen is that it contains a true cocktail of nutrients; approximately 205 bioactive substances, 16 vitamins, 27 minerals, and 22 amino acids. Its concentration of vitamins is higher than in fruits and vegetables.
Bee pollen contains:
- Almost all known vitamins and minerals, with high amounts of B-vitamins.
- All essential amino acids - with 50% more available protein than, for example, in a steak.
- Most enzymes and co-enzymes that the body needs.
- Antioxidants.
- Essential fatty acids.
- Essential sugars (known as "glyconutrients").
Bee pollen also contains most enzymes and coenzymes that the body needs. In China, Egypt, the Roman Empire, Europe, and among the Aztecs, bee pollen has been highly praised for its health properties for centuries. Pollen works well as a supplement, for sweetening, and as decoration on pastries.
You can also use pollen for skincare, for example as a face mask.
Mix in a small bowl:
- 2 tsp pollen
- 1 tsp yogurt or oat yogurt
- 1/4 tsp honey
Wash your face with water and then apply the mask with your fingertips over your entire face and neck. Leave space around the eyes. Let it work for about 20 minutes and then rinse off.
Adult dosage: One teaspoon to one tablespoon per day is recommended depending on taste and need. Best taken in the morning. Gradual increase is recommended, especially if allergy is suspected. Start with a small dose (about ¼ tsp) 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 with breakfast.
Some people who eat pollen may initially experience mild forms of gastrointestinal irritation, headache, or nausea due to the rich nutritional content and potency of the bee pollen.
Therefore, it is recommended to start with a smaller dose (about ¼ tsp) of bee pollen.
NOTE: Sometimes people can be allergic to bee pollen. Unusual allergic reactions may include swelling, heart palpitations, and difficulty breathing. If you have never eaten bee pollen before, you can try placing a single grain under your tongue to see if it causes any reaction. Then take two grains each day to slowly work up to one teaspoon per day if you don't notice any reaction. If you are allergic to bee stings, we advise against eating pollen or recommend being extra cautious.
How is 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 causes the bees to "fertilize" the flowers during 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 they invest significant time and energy to do this.
In the hive, the bee pollen is collected as the bees pass through a slightly narrow entrance, where some of the collected pollen is scraped off their legs. The bee pollen then falls into small containers below.
They are not harmed by this process and naturally retain enough pollen themselves to care for their colony. The pollen is dried immediately after collection and is neither heated nor processed in any other way to preserve all active substances and enzymes.
