It is a resinous, sticky gum, which is collected by honeybees from trees. The colour can vary from yellow/green to dark brown depending on the source and age.
Historically, it is one of the most valuable apicultural products due to it's medicinal properties and is used worldwide. It is the most important natural 'drug' used in the beehive due it's anti-bacterial and anti-radiation properties.
But, why would YOU use this product and how do you use it?
The benefits from using propolis on a regular basis are endless, so what are you waiting for?!
Propolis strengthens the immune system, is a natural antibiotic, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral, as well as having an anti-histamine effect.
It also helps with:
* Allergies
* Candida
* Sadness
* Stress
* Skin conditions
* High blood pressure
* Respiratory problems
* Depression
* Mouth dentistry and much, much more!
It has also been used in the treatment of the following:
*coughs/colds *tonsillitis/laryngitis *chronic fatigue syndrome *burns/scalds *flu *asthma bronchitis *to diminish the side effects of chemotherapy, and as I said before, much, much more!
As a tincture, the resin is blended in this particular product I use from the Vonnybee range -and have done for about 8/9 years now - with French Armagnac, although during 2014 a 'sin alcohol' version was created and available on request.
The bottle comes with its very own 'dropper' so it is easy enough to literally just pop the required dose on the tongue as required.
How often would I take it?

How often would I take it?
On a personal note, as it is for me the MUST have natural remedy EVER and is what I would call my 'lifesaver' - see previous blog My Journey into Health and Wellbeing - I take it every day and I do not get ill.
Depending on your personal requirement would depend on the amount and frequency. If you are displaying symptoms of illness, then 3 drops per day for 10 days and if you were taking as an 'Immune System Booster' then 1 drop per day for a month, then I would advise you see how are feeling at this point as to how you will continue to take.
I am a huge advocate of natural remedies from the beehive, both personally and for my family!
Here's to being 'healthy from the inside out'.

as propolis is reported to be spasmolytic, it may decrease the blood pressure, therefore if you suffer from low blood pressure should avoid taking, or alternatively you can alternatively speak with their GP for guidance.
