Bee Pollen Supplements - Nature's Complete Food?  Bee pollen otherwise called, propolis, buckwheat pollen, pine pollen, or pu huang has been used for thousands as a nutritional supplement by the early Egyptians and Chinese. As a bee goes from flower to flower, it collects a resinous mixture of nectar and pollen. This "blend" is very nutritious and contains good amounts of vitamins and proteins plus trace amounts of minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids and enzymes. Despite the nutritious content of bee pollen, there is very little research on its clinical efficacy. Most of the studies done to date are small uncontrolled animal and human studies. That said, here are some of the purported health properties/health benefits from consuming bee pollen supplements: 1. Improved energy 2. Improved immune system 3. Fights cancerous tumors 4. Relief from ulcers 5. Has antimicrobial properties
However, if you are allergic to bee stings, honey or ragweed, you need to be very careful about taking "bee vitamins" or bee pollen supplements. Taking it could trigger an allergic reaction such as headaches, sneezing and swelling. So what is the bottom line on this bee product and its effect on health? Taking bee pollen capsules as a daily dietary supplement can help you plug some of the nutritional deficiencies you may have in your diet. However most of its purported health benefits are at this point based on the vitamins and minerals found in it. You can get the same vitamins and minerals (and more) from many sources including a well-formulated herbal or natural multivitamin formula. Return To Dietary Health Supplements
