Bees deliver the most valuable products to humans. And this is not only honey, but also wax, propolis, pollen, royal jelly, etc., allowing to overcome almost any disease. Bee products a lot, and any of them finds its application. Medicine and pharmaceuticals, cooking and cosmetology do not do without them today.
So, today we will consider the main types of bee products, talk about their benefits and contraindications.
Word about honey
The chemical composition of the miraculous product suggests unequivocally that the value of honey in the amount of carbohydrates that help the human body to survive. And also in all those vitamins, minerals and other beneficial substances contained in it.
It seems that a man knows everything about honey. But among the spheres of its application there are very unusual. Honey is a preservative in which the body of the famous commander Alexander of Macedon was immersed for delivery to the capital of Macedonia from another trip to the Middle East for burial.
Few people know that every kind of honey is useful in its own way and is always suitable for treatment. Handwritten texts and medical books from antiquity brought this knowledge to our contemporaries.
This product is unique, and is used in various fields of human activity. Honey has long been used by alternative medicine, based on it produced multiple cosmetic preparations. And cooking? Every hostess has several recipes using honey. And not only pastries, but also sauces for meat dishes, and salad dressings.

The value of honey is difficult to overestimate. But it is possible to strengthen its benefits with a combination of vegetables, fruits, lean meat. After all, the body needs not only carbohydrates, but also proteins and fats.
Contraindications
Very often use bee products for treatment. But there are some contraindications to their use. They are individual, depend on some features of the organism. Taking honey, you need to know when to stop. For example, an adult needs 100 grams per day, and no more than 40 children per child.
Expectant mothers should be used with caution so as not to harm either themselves or the baby. And at the first sign of an allergic reaction, eliminate it from the diet.
Despite all of its healing properties, natural bee honey is intolerable by three percent of the population. But it happens that only a certain kind of it causes allergies.

Before using honey for health promotion, consult your doctor. Do not forget to monitor the reaction of your body.
Honey bee honeycomb
Perhaps you have met honey comb in markets or honey fairs - such small frames, sections, cut into pieces and wrapped in cellophane. It differs from ordinary honey, primarily because it does not undergo pumping. Its composition and caloric content are the same as that of pumped out, and it even surpasses it in useful properties. Honeycombs are a healthy and tasty product. The consumer receives it in its original form, produced by bees. Its bactericidal properties are many times greater than that of pumped honey. Such a product is extremely useful. It contains wax, which works as a sorbent, remaining in the intestine during chewing. So it is better to swallow it in small pieces and use rye bread while the wax is evenly distributed in the grain mass.
Chew honeycomb, and you will raise the tone of the body, improve the condition of the teeth, get rid of respiratory diseases, cleanse the body of toxins and toxins, etc.

pollen
No less useful bee product is pollen. It settles on the legs of a bee, and so it enters the honey cells. Insects collect and harvest pollen (pollen) for the whole season, especially actively doing it from the last days of May to July inclusive.
It seems that the whole body of the insect is adapted to collect pollen. Pollen adheres to the bristles in large numbers. Decorated with a secret secreted by the salivary glands of bees and a small amount of nectar, it is peeled off from the body with special devices on the legs, lumps (polyskis) are formed, which are delivered to the hive.
Pollen is very rich in proteins, there are more of them here than in beef, several times. Draw conclusions. Meat can easily be replaced by pollen without harming the body.

Perga use insects themselves to feed the larvae, it is consumed by young shoots, especially when the family is massively growing.
There are other names for perga - it is “bread” or “bee bread”. For the ancient Greeks, this product was ambrosia, even the food of the gods. And for some reason it was he who was undeservedly overlooked.

This nutritious product resembles pasta. They feed the queen bee throughout life, starting with the larvae.
If you compare the royal jelly with cow milk, its caloric content is more than twice, the amount of proteins is 5, carbohydrates are almost 6, and fats are 2-3 times.
As a medicine, the milk is used in its native form (in the form of fresh royal jelly) and in dry form. The latter is slightly inferior in quality, but still acts effectively.
And if you mix the fresh product with honey (1: 100), you will receive one more remedy, and it can be considered a bio-additive.
Bee products: propolis
Even in ancient Rome, the therapeutic properties of this product have received their scientific rationale. He is known to everyone who uses bee products for treatment.
