Bee Pollen: Superfood!
The benefits of bee pollen are definitely shown in the book "A Dud at 70 ... A Stud and 80 - And how to do it! an autobiography by Noel Johnson.
From the back of the book:
"In 1964, retired at age 54, Noel Johnson was refused life insurance due to a week and damged heart. His doctor prohibited any physical activity, cautioning him not even to move the lawn, saying, "You might not live to trim the borders."
Now, at age 83, this remarkable man competes in marathon runs of 26-plus miles around the world and has the gold medals to prove it! He has been named "superman" by doctors who delight in studying him to find out how he has so successfully reversed the aging process...
This book outlines Johnson's life to age 65 and reveals his 4-part "Secrets of Regeneration," a plan of natural self-care, that has enabled him to enjoy what he calls his "second lifetime", a return to full vigorous manhood and vital health."
The major ingredient in Noel Johnson's plan that returned him to youth and vitality is a large daily consumpton of High Desert Bee Pollen.
Question: What is bee pollen?
Answer: Bee pollen is the male part of the plant that must be joined with the female element for reproduction. Every small speck of pollen has all the ingredients to reproduce life. That means it has all the vitamins, minerals, enzymes, coenzymes, amino acids (protein), carbohydrates, male hormones and trace elements. It is a power house of living energy. Pollen is used by the bees as a high-protein food that they eat in addition to honey.
Bee Pollen is collected by the Universal Super Trap. The bees pass through it. The trap allows sufficient pollen to pass through the grids into the colony for the feeding of the bees, and insures the harvesting of the driest, cleanest pollen possible. Moisture-laden wet pollen from low-lying humid areas ferments quickly, or develops mold. This type of pollen must be heat-treated immediately to preserve it for use. But high heat processing kills the enzymes and reduces the nutrient value considerably.
When bee pollen is improperly stored and handled, it will lose up to 76% of its nutritive value within twelve months. The only satisfactory method of preserving fresh, live bee pollen is flash-freezing at zero degrees to maintain hive-freshness indefinitely and to preserve all vitamins, minerals and other nutrients intact.
Lately, doctors have been telling
us about the benefits of eating raw fruits and vegetables every day. Research
studies that compared the benefits of raw fuits and vegetables to vitamin
and mineral supplements found that whole foods, with their whole vitamin complexes
and extensive phytonutrient profiles, outperformed single ingredient supplements
like vitamins. The researchers concluded that either there are unidentified
nutrients present in raw fruits and vegetables that help increase the benefits
(synergistically?) of the vitamins and minerals found in whole foods, or there
are nutrients that benefit the body in unknown ways on their own.
That is why superfoods are the best supplements for you and your family! Bee
Pollen provides an incredibly complex supply of raw, unprocessed nutrients.
A bee must visit 1,500 flowers to fill her pollen baskets. This gives some kind of indication of how much energy can be supplied by pollen and other raw honey products! A single golden grain contains 500,000 - 5 million live pollen spores. This is pure LIFE ENERGY.
Question: What is in bee pollen?

Question: What is bee propolis?
Answer: Propolis is the sticky resin which seeps from the buds of certain trees. It is used by the bees to line the interior of brood cells in prepartion for the Queen's laying of eggs. With its ant antiseptic properties, propolis insures a hospital-clean environment for the rearing of the young bees. Research shows that propolis offers antiseptic, antibiotic, antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties.
The book "The World's only perfect food" by Royden Brown is the bee pollen bible: 500 pages on the amazing properties and power of bee pollen, propolis and royal jelly.
"This has to be the definitive book on Bee Pollen and products from the beehive...There is no other book I've seen or heard of in the market today that I'm aware of that even begins to compare" Douglas Rutti, Feel-Rite Health Books

Over the past several years virtually all of the major U.S. manufacturers of Bee Pollen have switched from selling domestic U.S. Bee Pollen to inexpensive imported pollen from China and Spain. They just haven't told you! The one exception is CC Pollen's HIGH DESERT brand Bee Pollen. There are many reasons that these imports cost less - and it's not just because of cheap labor. Proper quality control, processing and cold storage are all critical and expensive steps when manufacturing a raw, unprocessed superfood like Bee Pollen. Bee Pollen is basically fresh produce, and like any living food, if it doesn't spoil, it isn't living! Bee Pollen companies use imported pollen because they don't have to address these issues. The pollen they buy and sell won't spoil, has great shelf life, and doesn't need to be refrigerated. Imported pollen has been known to be baked to remove moisture, irradiated to prevent spoilage, and has spent minimal, if any, time in cold storage. If they don't tell you that it is U.S. Bee Pollen, then it probably isn't! If you want the best Bee Pollen buy U.S.!
