Propolis is a versatile natural remedy with a wide range of applications for improving health. It is also known as "nature's penicillin" due to its effectiveness in fighting even microorganisms that synthetic antibiotics are powerless against.What is propolis?
Propolis, also known as bee glue, is a unique resinous substance that bees collect from plant buds, leaf stalks, and bark. Bees process it with their enzymes and add wax, creating one of the most healing and sterile products found in nature. Propolis serves as a natural disinfectant in the beehive, ensuring a high level of sterility and a pleasant aroma. Interestingly, the sterility created by propolis in the hive is so high that it can be compared to the storage environment of surgical instruments. Its unique properties and ability to fight various diseases make it a valuable addition to holistic health care.
