Bee pollen
If you already know about the wonderful virtues of bee pollen
from New Zealand, please go straight to our range of bee
pollen products.
Bee pollen is the combination of flower pollen collected
by worker bees and nectar which is stored in bee hives. This
pollen is then collected from the hives and warm air dried,
removing excess moisture.
Bee pollen is nutritionally rich containing all the amino
acids and almost all known vitamins and minerals and has been
called nature’s own perfect food. When used as a nutritional
supplement, bee pollen strengthens the immune system and boosts
energy. It is high in B-complex and vitamins A, C, D, and
E. It also contains lecithin, beta-carotene, selenium. It
is this combination of elements that make bee pollen an excellent
source of anti-oxidents. Research studies and clinical tests
have demonstrated that bee pollen has an immunizing effect,
enhances vitality, and can counteract the effects of radiation
and chemical toxins.
Most bee pollen grains have a hard, very durable outer shell
which can be impossible to digest.
A process is used to break down this casing which removes
any dangerous allergic components that may be contained as
well as making it easier to digest. In addition it improves
the taste of the bee pollen by removing the yeast contained.
