Bill's Bees — Fresh Royal Jelly (2 oz)

Fresh royal jelly, the food that turns an ordinary bee into a queen.

Royal jelly is a milky secretion that nurse bees produce to feed larvae, and it is the only food a queen bee ever eats. On it she grows larger and lives years instead of weeks. It is rich in B vitamins, amino acids, minerals and a fatty acid called 10-HDA found nowhere else in nature. It has been used in traditional wellness for centuries for energy, vitality and skin. This is the fresh kind, not freeze-dried powder in a capsule. It is tart, slightly floral and a little sharp, and it must be kept cold.

Who this is for

• Anyone who has tried royal jelly capsules and wants the real, fresh thing
• Energy and stamina support as part of a whole-foods routine
• Skin and hair, taken internally or mixed into a face mask
• Fans of bee products who already use pollen and raw honey

How to use

• Traditionally a quarter to half teaspoon a day, held under the tongue or stirred into honey
• Keep refrigerated. Freeze for long-term storage. Do not heat
• 2 oz jar
• Not for anyone with a bee product allergy or asthma. Not for infants under one year

Bill's Bees is a working apiary founded in 1994 by Bill Lewis and Clyde Steese, based on a ranch in Little Tujunga Canyon in the Angeles National Forest of Southern California.
