Bee Pollen: Nature's Multivitamin

Bee pollen consists of flower pollen, nectar, enzymes, honey, and bee secretions collected by honeybees. It contains over 250 biologically active substances including proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and antioxidants.

Health Benefits

Bee pollen provides complete protein with all essential amino acids. It supports immune function, reduces inflammation, and helps combat seasonal allergies through gradual exposure to local pollen. Studies show it improves energy and athletic performance by reducing muscle fatigue and enhancing recovery.

Research indicates bee pollen may lower cholesterol levels, support liver function, and provide antioxidant protection against cellular damage. It contains vitamins B, C, D, E, and minerals including calcium, magnesium, and zinc.

How to Use

Start with a small amount—just a pinch—to test for allergies, then gradually increase to 1-2 teaspoons daily. Add to smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, or acai bowls. At Vibrations, you can add bee pollen to any juice or smoothie for $0.50.

Local bee pollen may be more effective for easing seasonal allergies since it contains pollen from your area. The taste is slightly sweet and floral. Store in a cool, dry place or refrigerate to maintain freshness.

Note: People with pollen or bee sting allergies should consult a healthcare provider before using bee pollen.
