What honeybee products are used for Apitherapy?
Bee Pollen is the male reproductive material of plants used by bees to feed their larvae. Pollen is the honeybee's exclusive source of protein, containing all the essential amino acids that people require. People use bee pollen as a multi-vitamin and/or to build up their resistance to air-borne allergens.

Propolis is tree resin mixed with bee-produced enzymes, used to protect the bee hive from bacteria, fungus, and viruses. People use propolis as a remedy for colds & influenza, and to build up the immune system. Propolis is also used topically for treating various skin conditions.
Royal Jelly is an enzyme enriched food, produced by young worker bees and fed to queen bees for their entire life. People use royal jelly as a multi-vitamin, as an immune system booster to promote longevity, and for mental clarity.
Honey is plant nectar, converted to simple sugars, dehydrated, and used for energy and winter food. People use honey as a natural sweetner, as a sore throat remedy, and for healing wounds.
Bee Venom is produced by worker female bees to defend themselves and their colony. People use bee venom to treat over 40 illnesses, including warts, arthritis and multiple sclerosis.
Beeswax is produced by worker female bees for building the honeycomb structure that is used for brood rearing and storing of honey & pollen. People use beeswax for a number of items including candles, cosmetics, and furniture polishes.
