Nature's Sunshine Polen de Abeja, 100 Cápsulas

What is bee pollen?

Bee pollen is a natural dietary supplement collected by bees directly from flowers. It is considered a complete food due to its rich composition of essential nutrients. Nature's Sunshine presents this pollen in convenient 100-count capsules, preserving all its properties through natural drying that maintains vital enzymes.

This product is obtained from controlled sources and undergoes strict quality processes since 1972. Bee pollen has been traditionally used as a nutritional supplement, and its nutritional profile makes it an interesting option for those seeking an extra supply of vitamins, minerals, and proteins in their daily diet.

Benefits of bee pollen

Bee pollen contains up to 35% complete protein, 22 amino acids, B-group vitamins, 27 mineral salts, trace elements, and several enzymes. These nutrients can contribute to the normal functioning of the body:

• Energy metabolism: Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12 present in pollen contribute to normal energy metabolism, helping to convert food into usable energy for the body.
• Cell protection: Minerals such as zinc and selenium (present in trace elements) contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative damage.
• Immune function: Zinc and vitamins B6 and B12 contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system.
• General vitality: The supply of essential amino acids and enzymes can help maintain a sense of vitality, although individual effects may vary.

It is important to remember that food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. A varied diet and a healthy lifestyle are the foundation of well-being.
