The term ‘superfood’ gets bandied about a lot but one that really deserves the accolade is Bee Pollen – this is considered by many health experts to be nature’s most nutritionally complete whole food. Countless studies have proven that Bee Pollen is one of the best natural supplements you can take for boosting energy levels and supporting the immune system, but did you know about these surprising additional benefits?

 

1. Helps Relieve Inflammation

Along with its vitamins and minerals, Bee Pollen contains flavonoid antioxidants, as well as the antioxidant lycopene (usually associated with tomatoes), which work together to combat inflammation throughout all of the body’s systems. Not only can this help prevent disease, it may even help to slow the aging process.

Additionally, Bee Pollen has been found to be potentially beneficial in soothing skin inflammation, such as eczema and psoriasis, as well as respiratory inflammation, which can lead to conditions such as asthma if left unchecked.

 

2. Works as an Antioxidant

Many studies have found that Bee Pollen has very high antioxidant properties similar to those of fermented foods. Antioxidants are naturally occurring chemicals that exist in plant-based foods, usually those that are red or dark in colour, as well as fermented foods. They help protect the body from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. Many experts believe this damage is a factor in the development of blood vessel disease and other conditions.

 

3. Supports Liver Health

The liver is responsible for filtering toxins out of the body. Researchers found that Bee Pollen helps keep the liver healthy and can even help the healing process after liver damage.

 

4. Supports Weight Management

Bee Pollen helps regulate hormones, and it possesses metabolic activity — containing amino acids that help increase your metabolism by dissolving fat cells in the body.  Bee Pollen contains an enormous amount of essential vitamins and minerals, helping nourish the body especially those with poor eating habits.

 

5. Helps Reduce Stress

Stress is a common problem in our society today and it can contribute to a variety of health problems as well. Taking Bee Pollen helps to lower stress levels and enables people to cope better. This is one of the important health benefits of Bee Pollen since controlling stress can impact many other aspects of health. Important vitamins, fatty acids, and amino acids are included in Bee Pollen that aid with mood regulation, which means that stress can be lowered and better controlled when adding this supplements to your life.

In fact, Bee Pollen is considered so beneficial in healing the body that the German Federal Board of Health recognises it as medicine.

Bee Pollen contains almost all the nutrients required by the human body to thrive. 

 

Trust Your Source!

Because of the scarcity of NZ Bee Pollen some companies use Bee Pollen that comes from China so always check your source and make sure it’s New Zealand Bee Pollen. Abeeco Bee Pollen is collected by bees from the forests and pastures of New Zealand, carefully dried and processed to ensure there is no damage or oxidation of the vital nutrients.
