Bee Pollen

Bee pollen is the male seed of a flower blossom, collected by honey bees and combined with the insects’ digestive enzymes. It’s a mixture of sticky pollen granules that can contain up to five million pollen spores each. It is one of my favorite natural health and survival foods and packs a powerful punch in each spoonful.

Raved by many as a perfect superfood, bee pollen is considered one of nature’s most complete foods when it comes to nourishment, containing nearly all nutrients humans need to survive and thrive, including protein.

In fact, it’s made up of 40% protein!

And it packs a plethora of benefits including: relieving allergy symptoms, is an anti inflammatory, improves digestion, is an energy booster and is also said to manage weight loss.

So, how can you enjoy it? Bee pollen can be sprinkled over cereals, yogurt, or oatmeal, added to homemade granola, or mixed into smoothies
