Benefits of Propolis
Bees are some of the most amazing creatures on this planet. They make the propolis, which can be considered a super food. For thousands of years, propolis has been used by numerous cultures as a natural remedy for a variety of ailments or to promote health.
Bees produce propolis as a defense mechanism against germs and mold in the hive. But it also acts as a natural antibiotic, being able to heal successfully and fight infections and tumors.
Since the times of ancient Egypt, people have been using propolis to treat wounds and to relieve symptoms of inflammations. Propolis can also increase the effects of antibiotics, such as penicillin, and can strengthen the immune system.
Propolis contains amino acids, minerals, and vitamins, which can help fight free radicals that attack the healthy red blood cells. It can also boost the energy level and promote better circulation.
New studies are conducted to see if propolis can be successfully used to treat or prevent cancer, but the substance can be used as a remedy for people suffering from viral diseases, oral tumors, herpes outbreaks and cataract.
Used as an oral rinse, propolis can reduce irritation and inflammation in the lips, gums and throat and prevent gum disease and dental cavities. Propolis can also be found as an ointment, capsules or topical liquid.
