The beehive provides much more than honey. Bee products such as bee pollen, bee bread, and royal jelly have been used for centuries as natural health support – and while apitherapy is not pharmacology, the composition of these products is truly complex and still well-researched.
What are individual bee products
Bee pollen is plant pollen collected by bees, rich in proteins, amino acids, B vitamins, flavonoids, and micronutrients. Bee bread (also known as ambrosia) is pollen fermented in honeycombs – fermentation increases the bioavailability of ingredients and makes it more easily absorbed by the body. Royal jelly is a secretion from the pharyngeal glands of worker bees, containing, among other things, the unique 10-hydroxydecenoic acid (10-HDA).
Application of bee products
Pollen and bee bread are most often used as a natural dietary supplement – a spoon added to yogurt, a smoothie, or taken directly. Bee bread in capsule form (micronized) is a convenient option for those who value precise dosing. Royal jelly most often appears in combination with honey or as an ingredient in complex preparations (e.g., with ginseng).
