Re: Propolis -antifungal, antibiotic, antiviral

First of all unless the propolis is from your area it's not worth anyhing.

The whole purpose behind propolis is that it has all the pollens etc., in

your area and its a way to trying to desenitizing oneself. It SHOULD be

bought from the refrigerated section of a local health food store and it

is taken in VERY MINUTE doses. Such as 1 ONE per day then slowly

increasing the amount if there is no adverse reactions. The little pieces

are about the size of a grain of

sugar and that is how it is taken.

How someone can sell a product with pollen etc., from areas outside of the

intended buyers use is beyond me. BUt $ makes the world go round! This

is another attempt to try and make a one size/dose fits all

The reason for such small and gradual doses is that if someone is allergic

to bee's this needs to be slowly introduced into the system.

Angel, I thought that was Bee POLLEN. I have

some Bee Pollen and I bought it from local grower

and it is like grain size. I never remember to

take it though and I bought it to reduce my

allergies. I just went and took some! It's a

great concept. This is something different I'm

sure.
