Bee pollen is a traditional remedy described as ‘life-giving dust’ by the Egyptians, quoted in the Bible and ancient Arabic medicinal texts¹. Honeybees mix the pollen obtained from the vegetation around them with nectar or saliva^{2, 3}. They form small agglomerates (pellets) that are deposited in the cells of honeycomb^{4, 5}.

Bee pollen has a very complex chemical composition and varies in size, colour, shape and weight, depending on the plant species it comes from³.

Bee pollen is rich in secondary metabolites (flavonoids, phenolic acids, phytosterols and carotenoids), vitamins (tocopherol, niacin, thiamine, biotin and folic acid), minerals (sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron etc.), enzymes and coenzymes^{5, 6}. Bee pollen has strong antioxidant power^{7, 8} and antibacterial, immunostimulant, anti-inflammatory, antianaemic, cardio-, hepato- and neuroprotective properties^{3, 5}.

It also has significant nutritional value, since it contains proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and amino acids such as leucine, isoleucine and valine⁵. This means it is recommended for people during recovery periods (e.g. after an operation) and for those who perform activities that require significant physical or mental effort³.

MELICINAL bee pollen cares for the whole body and helps to protect and detoxify it naturally.
