Honey is amazing stuff, but it’s not the only super food that comes from the all-too-important honeybee. Over the next few posts I will be highlighting a few of the useful and natural resources that come from honeybees. It is hard to protect something when we don’t understand their importance in the environment; many people look at honeybees as yet another stinging pest. However, saving the honeybee and helping beekeepers by purchasing organic honeybee products will aid in the effort to preserve agriculture.

Another Super Food!

Olympic athletes, women trying to conceive, and anyone needing a boost in their immune system or energy levels all have at least one thing in common: Royal Jelly. Royal Jelly is just what it sounds like. It is food for royalty! (Feel free to insert your own snooty royal accent). Now you can be royalty too. At least, you can eat like a queen. Well, a queen bee anyway. Royal jelly is fed to larvae that will be raised as queen bees. Without this jelly the larvae would have become just another worker bee. The royal jelly has essential nutrients to change the DNA of a bee to become the queen of a hive! One study noted 185 different organic compounds in royal jelly.

The Amazing Benefits of Royal Jelly

Researchers looking for alternative sources to the conventional chemical treatments used for general health and fertility have noted the following as just a few of the benefits of Royal Jelly:

  • Enhances the immune system
  • Promotes wound healing
  • Has anti-tumor/anticancer properties
  • Lowers cholesterol
  • Increases metabolism
  • Acts as a powerful antioxidant
  • Helps regulate blood sugar
  • Rich in amino acids and proteins!
  • Increase libido
  • Supports egg and sperm health (Fertility)
  • Diminishes and reduces signs of aging
  • Reduces inflammation

There are many more amazing effects from using Royal Jelly as a daily supplement. The really good news is that while sometimes supplements are difficult to dose, Royal Jelly is not needed in abundance to add to your sense of well-being.

So go ahead: stick your pinky up, and feel a little royal!
