Bee Pollen
If you are intending to take a healthy food supplement, Bee Pollen should be the first on your list because Bee Pollen contains every single nutrient needed for perfect human health!
Bee pollen is one of the most complete foods in nature, in the same league as the algae superfood spirulina. A quick glance at its analysis shows there are few things this mighty speck doesn't contain: all the essential amino acids, a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals, trace elements, enzymes (including antioxidants), hormone precursors (which stimulate hormone production and help anti-ageing), carbohydrates and fatty acids.
Benefits of Bee Pollen
Bee Pollen contains 35% protein, 55% carbohydrate, 2% fatty acids and 3% minerals and vitamins. It is high in B-complex and vitamins A, C, D, and E, and also contains lecithin (a fatlike substance called a phospholipid. It is produced daily by the liver if the diet is adequate. It is needed by every cell in the body and is a key building block of cell membranes; without it, they would harden. Lecithin protects cells from oxidation and largely comprises the protective sheaths surrounding the brain. It is composed mostly of B vitamins, phosphoric acid, choline, linoleic acid and inositol. Although it is a fatty substance, it is also a fat emulsifier. Hence, it supports the circulatory system), beta-carotene (the precursor of vitamin A. It also has anti-oxidant properties and may help in preventing cancer and other diseases) and selenium (a trace mineral that is essential to good health but required only in small amounts. Selenium is incorporated into proteins to make selenoproteins, which are important antioxidant enzymes. The antioxidant properties of selenoproteins help prevent cellular damage from free radicals. Free radicals are natural by-products of oxygen metabolism that may contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease).
Research studies and clinical tests have demonstrated that bee pollen has an immunizing effect, enhances vitality, and can counteract the effects of radiation and chemical toxins such as those used in chemotherapy).
A daily dose of pollen will save you the bother of figuring out what nutrients you're lacking, and then popping a handful of pills. It is also great for a quick energy boost as it is absorbed into the bloodstream within approximately 2 hours (the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali was a fan of bee pollen).
The curative properties of pollen can be traced back to the Romans, Egyptians, Chinese and Russians. Both Hippocrates and Pythagoras prescribed pollen for its healing properties. Nutritional consultant Susan Fletcher, as well as recommending it for strengthening the immune system, says pollen can improve brittle hair and nails, and help with conception problems by stimulating the ovaries and improving egg quality, not to mention allowing men to 'move off Viagra!'.
Athletes often use this supplement to help increase their strength, endurance, energy and speed. Bee pollen aids the body in recovering from exercise, returning breathing and heart rate to normal, and improves endurance for repeat exertion. It provides energy, stamina and strength as well as improving mental and physical reactions. "Bee pollen is used by almost every Olympic athlete in the world" said James Higgins, treasurer of the American Apitherapy Society. "It gives them more energy and better performance for events like marathons, and they aren't as exhausted the next day".
Bee pollen is rich in rutin, considered to be an important nutritional supplement because of its ability to strengthen capillaries, thereby helping people suffering from arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), high blood pressure or venous insufficiency.
With regard to sexual health, Bee Pollen is very helpful in maintaining the health of the female reproductive system, and in helping prevent prostate problems in men. Bee Pollen was also shown to dramatically improve the sperm count of men.
Pollen is also widely used for the alleviation of insomnia, to aid digestion and improve mood. Regular intake can help to protect against allergies, including hay fever - a case of the cause also being the cure.
NOTE: People with allergies to bee stings should be extremely careful with bee pollen as serious allergic reactions could result.Bee Propolis
