What is Propolis?

Bees produce propolis by mixing plant resin with their enzymes, thus combining both natural defences substances developed by their individual immune systems with the plant-immune properties of the resin.The purpose of the propolis is to create a sterile environment inside the hive to protect the bee colony from disease. New Zealand’s rich source of native plants and trees leads to bees producing propolis with novel properties compared to propolis produced in other countries.

Propolis is a Nature’s Powerhouse

Propolis has been known to us for centuries and has been used for its healing properties. Ancient Egyptian, Persian, Greek and Roman physicians used it as a medicine for sores, ulcers, bruises, eczema, myalgia, all kinds of inflammation and rheumatism. Currently, propolis is widely considered as a natural powerhouse to support our natural immune system. Because of its natural high antiviral activity and natural properties it is popular for skincare and allyear round natural support for the whole family.
