It is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, trace elements, proteins, co-enzymes, xanthophylls, carotenes, sterols, phytosterols, carbohydrates and fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eBee pollen is the flower pollen that is collected by honey bees when they land on flowers to collect nectar. Bees instinctively search for the best quality pollen, they bind it with enzymes in their pollen sacks and bring it back to the beehive in tiny pouches on the back of their legs. These fine golden pellets are collected from the bees legs using a small mesh placed by bee-keepers at the entrance to the hive. Bee pollen granules consist of a mixture of natural flower pollen mixed with beebread (flower nectar and bee secretions). The resulting nutrient-rich pollen mixture is then softened by natural processes making the nutrients up to seven times easier to assimilate. Raw bee pollen is superior to processed pollen, that you may find in capsules, as processing can break down the active ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis product has been tested for pesticides, artificial fertilisers, heavy metals, e.coli, yeast, mould, salmonella and foreign matter.
