Organic royal jelly Melicinal

100% organic, MELICINAL’s Royal Jelly is an indispensable supplement to provide energy and nutrients for the body.

Royal jelly is a natural substance secreted by young worker bees, by means of the fermentation of pollen and honey, royal jelly is the exclusive food of the queen bee during her entire life (1,2).

It has been used since ancient times, particularly in Asian apitherapy and in ancient Egypt (4,5). Although its history is partially comprised by legends (healing of Pope Pius XII is attributed to it) (5), modern scientific research has centred its investigations in relation to its nutritional composition.

Organic royal jelly provides 8 essential amino acids (such as proline, lysine, arginine and glutamic acids), lipids (such as 10-hydroxydecanoic fatty acid) (3,4,6), minerals (sodium, potassium, phosphorous, calcium, iron and zinc) (2), group B vitamins and royalisin, a 51-amino acid peptide which characterizes jelly and is the object of numerous research studies (1,2,4).

MELICINAL Organic Royal Jelly ensures the absence of pesticides, turning it into an effective source of nutrients which are essential for a diet.
