Bee Honey

Since the beginning of time man has been fascinated by the bee. The bee can sting, but it can also produce substances that have been used by man both for medicinal purposes as well as delicious foods. Bees produce honey, pollen and propolis. The Asians have used propolis to cure injuries and tumors. The Greeks used it to cure wounds and abscesses. Writings from ancient Persia, the Hebrews and the Bible all mention propolis and honey.

After flying long distances, bees find themselves among thousands of chalices of open flowers, all of which they buzz to, hungry to drink the nectar which they collect. They gather the flower's sugary sap in their glands. The bees suck in the juice with their honey stomach where it is processed with its saliva, transforming it from a complex honey into a honey that is easy to digest, one such as levulose and fructose. This process is done with the help of an enzyme that is found in the digestive tract of the bee.

The type if honey produced depends on the type of flower visited.

The purest honey is the natural honey, from which the pollen and Royal Jelly that it contains are not removed, such as the honey collected from hives in the high deserts of Arizona and other states, far from contamination and pesticides. These bee products, collected by means of the most modern methods, guarantee the purest and most unequaled product.

It is well known that bees fly from flower to flower collecting nectar. The nectar is brought to the honeycomb to be converted into honey. A bee can fly into as many as a thousand flowers to collect enough nectar to fill its stomach. Sixty bee stomachfuls of honey are needed to fill one thimble full of honey. In order to make half a liter of honey, bees need to visit between two and four million flowers.

As a general rule germs don't grow in pure honey. For this reason honey has been used in the past to nourish babies and the sick.

Honey contains an ample amount of nutrients like :

• Caratenoids that are converted into vitamin A.
• Vitamins B1,B2,B3,B5,B6,B12 Biotin and Folic Acid.
• Calcium, copper, iron, manganese, phosphorous, potassium, sulfur and 19 amino acids, including 8 essential ones.
• Various enzymes and carbohydrates.
