Pollen (European) 160 gram

Jar with 160 grams of pollen. Bees collect pollen from flowers, they add enzymes and some nectar to create pellets that they attach to their hind legs for transport, these pellets are called pollen. Bees collect pollen as a protein source. These pollen consist of 35% protein. Besides proteins, they also contain carbohydrates, fats and many minerals (potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, sulfur, manganese, silicon, copper) and amino acids. But it doesn't stop there, pollen contains vitamins (B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (nicotinamide), B6 (pyridoxine), B8 (biotin), B9 (folic acid), B12), nicotinic acid, vitamin C (ascorbic acid), pantothenic acid, and to a lesser extent A (retinol), D (ergosterol), E (tocopherol), K (phytomenadione) and rutin). This composition makes it a very healthy addition to your diet. Our pollen are harvested in the Netherlands or the EU and are therefore relatively local. Try something new and mix them into your yogurt or start the day energetically with a teaspoon of pollen. Nowadays pollen are considered superfoods.

Note: it's advisable to start with small steps because some people can react strongly to pollen.
