Bee propolis P.E.

Specifications

Propolis is a resin-like material that honey bees collect from tree buds, sap flows, flowers and other plant sources. The bees use the propolis as a sealant for small unwanted open spaces in the hive. Propolis is sticky at and above room temperature (20°C), and at lower temperatures it becomes hard and brittle and thus can be milled into a powder. The most common colour of propolis is dark brown, but the colour can vary depending upon the botanical source.

Propolis is claimed to have beneficial effects on human health, including infammations, virus infections, ulcers, scalds, and sore throats. Propolis may also promote heart health, improve the immune system and protect against the development of cataracts.

While there are many claims for the health-promoting properties of bee propolis, care must be taken for those that are allergic to bees or bee-derived products.

Propolis has been investigated as a powerful antibiotic and antifungal agent¹, as an emollient², and an immunomodulator³ In addition, the use of propolis in the prevention of tumor growth in mice has been studied in Japan⁴
