Bee Propolis (500 mg)

Bee Propolis – Loaded with Nutrients for Immune SupportIn addition to honey, bees also produce two products which have been used in alternative medicine for centuries, bee pollen and propolis. Propolis is less well-known than pollen but offers important potential health benefits.

Propolis is a combination of resin collected from tree bark and leaves and pollen, wax, and nectar. The resulting sticky substance is used in the hive to seal it and caulk holes and cracks. It can also be found at the entrance where it helps remove micro-organisms from the bee’s body as it enters the hive helping protect the colony from potentially debilitating invasions.

Propolis’ medicinal properties have been known for over 2,000 years. Hippocrates used it to treat wounds. There are reports that the Russian army used it to treat wounds on the battlefield during World War II.

Today many people prize propolis as a powerful, natural antibiotic. While it will not replace prescription antibiotics, it can help provide an added boost for the immune system and stimulate the formation of antibodies.All Vitamins plus AntioxidantsPropolis is packed with nutrients. It contains all the vitamins except for Vitamin K. It also contains bioflavonoids, calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. In all, scientists have identified more than 180 compounds in propolis. Propolis has been found to be active against bacteria, viruses, and other micro-organisms.

The flavonoids in propolis are powerful antioxidants. They help account, in part, for propolis’ antibiotic and antiviral properties. Antioxidants help eliminate damaging free radicals from the body. Propolis is also believed to have some anti-inflammatory properties. Label Information and Ingredients: Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules 1-3 times daily.
