Propolis - powerful products from the tears of the trees

How propolis is made - perfectly thought-out production

It is common knowledge that bees collect pollen from flowers to make honey. So it's no wonder that most people associate them with the sweet honey that can be found on many a breakfast table. What is less well known, however, is that these industrious little insects not only excel in honey production - in a short bee life, there are various tasks that need to be carried out at every stage of their lives. Maintaining the hive is one area of work in which the production of propolis helps them.

This is produced by the bees by collecting the resin secretions from various trees, transporting them to the hive and combining them with bee saliva and pollen to produce the enzyme- and nutrient-rich putty resin. Propolis is primarily used for the hive, where it keeps foreign insects, bacteria and viruses away from the opening, for example. However, propolis is also used for repairs to the hive. As the formation of the putty resin is a major task for the small bees, propolis extract is a very valuable product.

A bee product with a long tradition: the history of propolis

Incidentally, the name of the putty resin can be traced back to the Greek and can be translated as "product for the state" ("pro" = for, "polis" = state). However, propolis is not only useful for bees - humans can also benefit from the resinous substance, for example in the form of propolis capsules. However, the history of its use goes back to the time of the Egyptians and Aristotle. At that time, propolis was known as the tears of trees. In ancient Egypt, for example, propolis was used for mummification; in ancient Greece, the resin-like bee product was already known as a versatile aid. Nowadays, we know exactly why propolis products have so many benefits. For example..

  • ... they are rich in various vitamins, such as groups B, C, E and biotin.
  • ... they contain numerous trace elements and vital substances, including copper, chromium, zinc, vanadium, silicon, manganese and iron.
  • ... propolis can be a dietary supplement thanks to the enzymes and amino acids it contains.
  • ... the high proportion of bioflavonoids can support well-being.

Applications of propolis capsules and more

Propolis extract is said to have numerous different effects, making it suitable for a wide range of uses in humans and animals. For this reason, propolis capsules (or other dosage forms) can be used to support many needs. The fact is that the putty resin, which is rich in vitamins and enzymes, is not only useful in the beehive, but also as a dietary supplement, for example in the form of propolis capsules.
