When bees collect nectar from flowers, their legs become coated with pollen. These yellow granules are gently collected as the bee passes through a screen upon entering the hive. For thousands of years, bee pollen has been used by civilizations worldwide for its beneficial qualities.
This precious pollen can be enjoyed sprinkled in smoothies, yogurts, and salads as bee pollen delivers fiber, protein, iron and Vitamins A, B and C to nourish your body and support your overall well being.
