Bee Royal Jelly
Did you know that bees create Royal Jelly?
When worker bees are raising a new queen bee, they feed a few chosen larvae copious amounts of Royal Jelly, a honeybee secretion that stimulates morphological changes in the larvae to transform them into queens. The queen is much larger than the workers, it has a longer life span and unlike to the worker bees, it has ovaries that can produce eggs.
The queen continues its royal jelly treatment throughout its life, which is evidenced by its size and longevity. Could humans also benefit from these same Royal Jelly benefits? Studies suggest that this may be so. Royal jelly has a broad spectrum of minerals and vitamins, especially the B-complex vitamins. It is also rich in various amino acids. Best of all, it comes from natural sources, which means it contains superior nutrients to those from synthetic sources.
Royal Jelly has been shown to have cholesterol lowering, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, and wound healing properties. The most notable finding is Royal Jelly’s stimulatory effect on the growth of neural stem cells, which means it can be used to treat many neurodegenerative conditions such as ALS or Alzheimer’s. Its effect on inhibiting vascularization of tumours, when combined with modern radical therapies for tumors like medical marijuana and standard procedures such as surgery, makes for a powerful combination.
Bees don’t just help put sweeten your tea and brighten up your flowerbeds. These flying marvels have a lot more to offer.
