The benefits:


The health benefits of bee pollen are numerous. Antioxidants of resveratrol, flavanol and lycopene found in bee pollen, along with vitamins A, B, C, K and E help to ward off infections by strengthening the bodies immune system.


Bee Pollen also contains a variety of fatty acids. Essential fatty acids are the most predominate of these – approximately 70% of which are Omega-3 fatty acids (Alpha-linolenic acid) and 5% Omega-6 (linoleic acid), which is necessary for growth in dogs and cats. The remaining percentage is monounsaturated and saturated fats.
Nearly a dozen major enzymes and several thousand minor enzymes and co-enzymes in bee pollen help with food digestion and absorption of nutrients while regulating the immune system.

The health-enhancing value of bee pollen is expected due to the wide range of secondary plant metabolites (tocopherol, niacin, thiamine, biotin and folic acid, polyphenols, carotenoid pigments, phytosterols), besides enzymes and co-enzymes, contained in bee pollen.
