Bee Propolis

 

The B vitamins are fundamental for maintaining

good health and work synergistically as a

complex in many processes throughout the

body. Poor diet, environmental factors, refined

and processed food may lead to a deficiency of these

important energy-producing nutrients causing a wide

range of symptoms.

When we think of bees, honey and pollen are foremost

in our thoughts, but there is yet another miracle

substance too. Propolis is a sticky resin secreted by

trees. Honeybees collect and metabolise the propolis,

then line their hives with it to protect themselves from

germs. In fact Forever Bee Propolis translates from

the Greek as ‘defender of the city’. Hippocrates, ‘The

Father of Medicine’, prescribed propolis more than 2000

years ago for the treatment of sores and ulcers and it

was also commonly used in ancient Egypt and Rome.

Propolis is rich in nutrients including vitamins, minerals,

amino acids, enzymes and flavonoids. The flavonoids

in propolis help inactivate viruses, which may protect

against, or shorten, the duration of colds and flu. They

have also been documented to have anti-allergenic

and anti-inflammatory properties with studies showing

positive effects in various rheumatic conditions.

Propolis stimulates the immune system and increases

resistance to infection. Research has demonstrated its

capacity to destroy or halt numerous strains of harmful

bacteria. Propolis is selective in the way it attacks

these bacteria, as well as fungal and viral infections and

because of its selectivity, the beneficial bacteria which

perform many vital functions in our digestive tract are

not affected. Propolis has no known side effects and

neither bacteria nor viruses develop a resistance to it.

These antimicrobial properties may also help protect

against parasitic infections and sensitivity has been seen

in shingles and to antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria

such as MRSA.

The field of influence of propolis is extremely broad

and its wide range of uses includes infections of the

upper respiratory tract, the mouth, digestive, genital

and urinary tracts and inflammatory conditions of the

eye. It is also important in maintaining the health of the

cardiovascular system.

Propolis promotes the healing of wounds, stimulating

the growth of new tissue, the softening of skin and the

diminishing of scarring. Its therapeutic use has been

noted in skin conditions including abscesses, cold

sores, ulcers, burns and broken bones.

Forever Bee Propolis is gathered from beehives situated

in remote, high desert regions and to assure purity,

patented propolis collectors are used. It is fortified

with Royal Jelly and has no added artificial colourings,

preservatives or flavourings. If your interested in any of these product
