Bee Pollen Health Benefits

Bees gather bee pollen as food for their young. Pollen is a powdery dust like material produced by flowers and gathered by bees. One teaspoon of bee pollen is equivalent to a bee working for 8 hours in 30 days.  Research shows that bee pollen is considered as one of the most complete food on earth. It is rich in proteins, amino acids, vitamins and folic acid.

“Bee pollen is a complete food and contains many elements that products of animal origin do not possess. Bee pollen is more rich in proteins than any animal source. It contains more amino acids than beef, eggs, or cheese of equal weight. About half of its protein is in the form of free amino acids that are ready to be used directly by the body.”
