Exploring the Potent Benefits of Bee Pollen
Bee pollen has been used as a medicine for centuries. It contains vitamins, minerals, lipids, proteins, fatty acids, and antioxidants – all of which contribute to your good health. Bee pollen helps reduce inflammation.
It strengthens the immune system and lowers cholesterol, and it is even said to relieve stress. This article will introduce you to some of the best bee pollen benefits.
What is bee pollen?
Bees gather pollen from flowering plants and take it back to their hive to store in honeycomb cells. Depending on the plant source, geographical conditions, and climate of the foraging area, bee pollen can vary in appearance. It can range in colour from bright yellow to black and vary in size, shape, and weight.
Bees cover the surface of this stored pollen with wax and honey. It serves as a food and protein source for the bees. One bee colony can provide around seven kilograms of pollen in a year.
Bee pollen contains around 250 substances, including amino acids, enzymes, macro- and micro-nutrients, lipids, vitamins, and flavonoids. Bee pollen granules have an impressive nutrition content, with around 40 percent carbs, 35 percent protein, 5 percent fat, water, and other substances.
These nutritional qualities of bee pollen provide many health benefits.
Did you know? One bee needs to work eight hours a day for one month to gather one teaspoon of bee pollen! Each bee pollen pellet contains over two million flower pollen grains, and one teaspoonful contains over 2.5 billion grains of flower pollen. Of course, bees do much more than collect pollen, and the work is shared amongst the hive.
