Pollen (European) 50 grams

Jar with 50 grams of pollen. Bees collect pollen from flowers, they add enzymes and some nectar to make small balls that they attach to their hind legs for transport, these balls are called pollen. Bees collect pollen as a protein source. These pollen consist of 35% protein. In addition to 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 the diet. Our pollen is harvested in the Netherlands or the EU and is therefore relatively local. Let yourself be surprised and mix them in your yogurt, for example, or start the day energetically with a teaspoon of pollen. Nowadays, pollen is considered a superfood.

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