Bee bread 150 g

150 g jar of bee bread. Bee bread is a stored form of pollen in the beehive. The bees pack the pollen into the honeycomb and mix it with drops of nectar. This forms hexagonal pellets that lightly acidify and are thereby preserved by the bees. Bee bread is packed with vitamins and is a good source of protein. It also contains, carbohydrates, fats and many minerals (potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, sulfur, manganese, silicon, copper) and amino acids. The vitamins found in pollen are also present in bee bread such as (B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (nicotinamide), B6 (pyridoxine), B8 (biotin), B9 (folic acid) and B12), nicotinic acid, vitamin C (ascorbic acid), pantothenic acid, to a lesser extent A (retinol), D (ergosterol) E (tocopherol), K (phylloquinone) and rutin). This composition makes bee bread a very healthy addition to the diet. Our bee bread is sourced in the Netherlands or the EU and is therefore relatively local. Treat yourself and, for example, stir some into your yogurt or start the day energized with a spoonful. Bee bread is also a superfood.

Note: it is wise to start with small amounts because some people can react strongly to pollen.
