Bee pollen: the absolutely natural nutritional supplement

As pollen, we define the male germ cells of spermatophytes, i.e., the male seed of flowers, shrubs and plants in general. Bees collect it from various types of flowers, add nectar for better consistency and transfer it to the hive in irregular spherical shape. Therefore, pollen is an exclusive bee byproduct (it cannot be produced by a laboratory) and that’s the reason why it is often called “bee pollen”.

The natural form of bee-treated pollen is granular. It usually consists of grains of different colors, sizes and flavors, depending on the species of plants which it originates from. Its average flavor is basically sweetish with some bitter tones.

Nutritional value

The wide variety of plants where it derives from makes pollen an extremely rich source of active nutrients. It contains proteins, vitamins, free amino acids, lipids, sugars, metal salts, flavonoids, minerals, enzymes and coenzymes. It is the most complete nutritional supplement, since it provides all the nutrients needed by the human body to keep its perfect balance.

Pollen is a great source of antioxidants, prebiotics and probiotics with remarkable beneficial effects on the human system:

• Thanks to the antioxidants it contains, it promotes the health of the immune system, responsible for fighting diseases and maintaining the overall body health
