Propolis

Propolis or bee glue is a resinous mixture that honey bees collect from tree buds, sap flows, or other botanical sources. It is used as a sealant for unwanted open spaces in the hive. Propolis is used for small gaps (approximately 6 millimeters (0.24 in) or less), while larger spaces are usually filled with beeswax. Its color varies depending on its botanical source, the most common being dark brown. Propolis is sticky at and above room temperature, 20 °C (68 °F). At lower temperatures, it becomes hard and very brittle.

Propolis has benefits and medicinal properties and increases our body's defenses at times when we feel weaker.

Use of this resinous substance as an antiseptic date back  2300 years ago. Not surprisingly, the ancient Egyptians used it in the mummification process to prevent decomposition of the bodies.

When the nectar and pollen are even less abundant, the bees collect this resin of the bark of trees and harden the inner walls of the hive.

Thus, repair the breaches, protecting both germs (fungi and bacteria) and dangerous intruders.

This is for all in a difficult product to collect and quite expensive, especially because propolis is present in small quantities in honey.

Their different properties are mainly based on the presence of flavonoids, compounds that promote the body's defenses against multiple attacks.It is beneficial, therefore, in case of respiratory disease.
