Pollen from bees or flowers, is the male seed of the flowers that the bee collects between its legs and that it serves for the work of the hive. Of high nutritional value, it contains minerals, amino acids and vitamins, which is why it is considered a very healthy food capable of alleviating certain deficiencies in our diet.
What is bee pollen?
From the point of view of the hive, it is the food of the young bee, which contains 40% protein. Considered one of the most nutritious foods in nature. It contains almost all the nutrients that humans need. About half of its proteins are in the form of free amino acids, ready to be used directly by our body.
Its collection is not an easy task. Once the bee reaches a flower, it settles on itself and the pollen it contains in powder form is trapped throughout its body, especially by its legs, where it picks it up from flower to flower until it forms a ball of considerable size that will later be deposited in a pollen catcher located in the hive. The beekeeper will collect and dehydrate it to make it available to consumers.
A very interesting curiosity about bee pollen is that it cannot be synthesized in a laboratory, it can only be created by bees in nature. There are some elements present, which science cannot identify, and that is that bees add some mysterious "extra" of their own to create this powerful food.
