Bee pollen is well known for its nearly complete nutrient content and its remarkable ability to provide energy. Respect for Bee Pollen is ancient in Chinese medicine.

Bee pollen contains nearly all of the B complex vitamins, vitamins C, A, E, folic acid, and carotenoids. It contains a wide variety of minerals and trace elements, along with essential fatty acids.

It is also extremely rich in rutin (vitamin P), vital to strengthening capillaries and blood cell walls. Bee pollen targets the entire body, but is a special boost to the reproductive, immune, and nervous systems.

It is antibiotic, astringent, relaxant, tonic, and nutritive. It helps to correct and stabilize our body chemistry.

Bee pollen speeds healing, revitalizes the body's many systems, and helps protect the cells in our body from free radical damage - a major cause of cancer.

It helps those who bruise easily, due to its rutin content, helps strengthen the heart, helps fight anemia, and helps to regulate high blood pressure by regulating blood flow. It is often used by athletes to increase endurance and strength.

 To Bee or not to Bee, but there is no question that Bee Pollen has become a popular nutritious supplement that helps to enhance vitality, build the immune system, increase stamina and strength, and even combat depression.

It is no wonder that Bee Pollen is often called ''Nature's Perfect Food!''

History: Bee Pollen is one of the many gifts that bees have bestowed on mankind (think of beeswax, honey, bee propolis and royal jelly), and as yet scientists have not been able to duplicate this wondrous substance in a laboratory.

Even when manmade pollen has been created with every known nutrient present in the real pollen, bees will die when fed the lab-produced, synthesized food.

Bee Pollen is a powder-like material that is produced by the anthers of flowering plants and gathered by bees and picks up the nutrients of every plant it visits. This is a particularly rich, non-airborne pollen called entomophile pollen that is needed by those flowers to guarantee their fertilization, and unlike the wind-carried anemophile pollen, it generally does not trigger allergic reactions.

This entomophile pollen is processed by the honeybee and is rich in protein, essential fatty acids, B-complex vitamins, vitamins A, C, E and D, carotene, enzymes, almost all known minerals, trace elements, sodium, plant sterols, and simple sugars.

With regard to mental response, Bee Pollen appears to be effective in helping people who suffer from mental fatigue, stress, depression and the inability to concentrate.
