Bee Pollen
Nature's Perfect Food
Bee Pollen
is a pure, natural food source. Often referred to as "Nature's Perfect
Food" or "The Miracle Food", Bee Pollen is the most complete
and balanced food in nature. It is the only natural food source known
to contain every essential nutrient needed by mankind, and it is easily
assimilated in the body.
Bee Pollen
contains 96 nutrients including 16 vitamins, 16 minerals, 16 enzymes and
coenzymes, and all the essential amino acids. It also contains a variety
of sugars, carbohydrates, gums, fats, and oils. The total fats and oils
usually make up only about 5% of the pollen.
There are
two types of pollen, those that depend on air to spread them to new areas
and those that remain in the flower. Bees are attracted to the heavy,
sticky pollen that remains on the flowers. Bee Pollen is the male germ
cells of flowering plants and is the starting point of production of fruits,
grains, legumes, and vegetables. If bees can only reach one color of flower,
their pollen will all be the same color. If they can reach a variety of
flowers, their pollen will be several different colors.
Research
has shown, that as bees collect pollen from flowers, they select only
those flowers high in nutrients and ignore the poor ones. This explains
why bee pollen contains such highly concentrated amounts of nutrients.
Although bees have collected pollen for centuries, it was only a couple
of decades ago that beekeepers invented special hives that enabled them
to collect the pollen. A series of mesh-like enclosures are set up around
the hive. As the bees fly through these enclosures, the pollen pellets
fall from the bees' legs and are collected in special containers. Once
the pollen is collected, it is dried, cleaned, and prepared for human
consumption.
Bee Pollen
can be purchased in tablet or granular form. Bee Pollen granules can be
sprinkled on foods or mixed with yogurt. However, due to its strong taste,
many people prefer to take Bee Pollen in tablet form, since tablets can
be easily swallowed.
Several research
studies have shown that Bee Pollen helps build up strength and energy,
provides needed carbohydrates in the purest form, acts as a tonic stimulant,
restores poor appetites, and works as an ideal body regulator- promoting
weight gain in underweight people and weight-loss in overweight people.
Bee Pollen
has been used by athletes for centuries to increase energy and stamina.
Many college and professional athletic teams include Bee Pollen as part
of their regular fitness program. Many Olympic Champions have attributed
their success to Bee Pollen.
Steroids,
and other drugs used by athletes to increase body weight and muscle growth,
can have serious side effects. For this reason, it is not surprising that
so many athletes have turned to Bee Pollen tablets as a natural, harmless
way to gradually improve cell rebuilding and growth.
