Bee Pollen

Tips from the Hive; Bee Pollen
I have been eating bee pollen in my shakes every morning for several years. It is a very unique and extraordinary food that can enhance all bodily systems.
Dr Cousens says: " Bee Pollen contains 18 vitamins, carotene, 56 minerals, all 22 essential amino acids, over 5000 enzymes, polysaccharides and simple sugars, nucleic acids and 15% lecithin (different from soy lecithin) that is especially good for brain development .
Research done by doctors from France, Italy and Russia, shows the bee pollen is one of the richest sources of bioavailable protein in nature.
Did you know that gram for gram, bee pollen contains more protein than cheese, eggs and meat? With 96 different nutrients including every nutrient known that your body needs, bee pollen might just be the most complete superfood in nature. Civilizations from around the globe have praised bee pollen as a sacred source of rejuvenation, longevity, energy and stamina.
This is an alkaline food that is considered by many to be one of the most complete food sources found in nature. Bee pollen is loaded with antioxidants, it is a hormonal booster and increases strength, endurance, energy and speed. It reduces the presence of histamine, thus ameliorating many allergies. It is the most powerful ojas building food as it is the concentrated semen of the plant world. For all these reasons, this superfood was known to the ancient Greeks as “the food of the gods”.
Dr Cousens recommends 1-3 tbsp per day
I recommend starting slow with 1 tsp a day and working up to 1 Tbsp a day (should take about a week for your body to accept this new superfood protein.)
