Bee Products - Pollen, Propolis, and Royal J...

[Guest guest]

you are absolutely right..

 

Apitherapy is one of the most marvelous gifts , nature has given us .,

I was on two seminars . eachone of 4 days in Passau germany where Doctors

and professors from 34 Country presented their newstudies and treatmens of

skin cancer , liver promblems , MS with bee products..

 

I m a memeber of Apitherabie union and each day we have marvelous new

success stories using Propolis, gellee Royal and Pllen ..

 

Bee Bread f.e is one of the best matters to bring down the blood pressure

in a short time

 

 

you can ask me questions ...

 

 

 

[Guest guest]

here are some more details about propolis

 

The human body is constantly under attack of free radicals. Free radicals are

highly reactive molecules by the biochemical redox reactions that occur as

part of normal metabolism and by exposure to environmental factors such as u.v.

light, cigarette smoke,environmental pollutants and gamma radiation. Once

formed, free radicals attack cell structures within the body. As a result, free

radicals have been implicated in numerous diseases examples of which are listed

below: Cancer, atheroscleroses rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, cataracts

conditions associated with premature birth, motor neurone disease, liver damage,

respiratory disease, central nervous system disorders.

In healthy individuals, the antioxidant system defends tissues against free

radical attack; three classes of antioxidant defend the body against free

radical attack. Primary antioxidants - superoxide dismutase, glutathione

peroxidase, cacruloplasmin prevent the formation of new free radical species.

Secondary

antioxidants - vitamin E, vitamin C, B carotine, uric acid, bilirubin and

albumin trap newly formed free radicals before they can initiate chain reactions

leading to cell damage and further free radical formation. Tertiary

antioxidants - DNA repair enzymes. Methionine sulphoxidereductase repair cell

structures

damaged by free radical attack. Deficiencies in the antioxidant system can

develop for a number of reasons low intake of dietary antioxidants, diseases

that

reduce the absorption of antioxidant nutrients from food (Crohn's Disease),

total parenteral nutrition renal dialysis.

In these situations the antioxidant system struggles to protect the body from

free radical attack and as a result the risk of free radical-mediated disease

increases. It is also known that bee venom, honey, royal jelly, pollen, bee

bread are also antioxidantic products and can be used by patients treated by

HBO.

PROPOLIS Propolis is a natural substance collected by honey bees from buds

and trees. Propolis contains tree resin, essential oils, waxes and

bioflavonoids. Biofiavonoids are one of the most important components in

propolis; the

antioxidant effects of bioflavonoids help maintain a healthy system.

The results achieved in Kaunas Academical hospital and in some other

hospitals are presented here:

Qualitative compositon of propolis:

* Flavonoids

* Chalcones, Dihydrochalcones

* Aliphatic acid and their esters

* Long chain aliphatic acids

* Esters of some short chain volatile oils

* Aromatic acids and their esters

* Aldehyds

* Alcohols

* Cinnamic acid and its derivatives

* Other acid and derivatives

* Ketones, phenols and heteroaromatic compounds

* Terpene, sesquiterpene alcohols and their derivatives

* Terpenoids and other compounds

* Sesquiterpenes and triterpene hydrocarbons

* Volatile compounds

* Hydrocarbons

* Alifhatic hydrocarbons

* Sugar

* Lactones

* Alfa and Beta- amilass

* Amino acids

* Derivatives of nucleic acids

* Vitamins

* Minerals

* Other substances

* Insoluble in water and organic solvents part

* Pollutants

Propolis contains about:

* 55% resins and balsams

* 7,5%-35% waxes

* 10% volatile oils

* 5% pollen

* 5% fatty acids

* 4,4%-195 impurities

* terpenes

* tannin substances, salivary gland secretion of the bees and accidental

compounds

* quecetin

* quercetin-3,3-dimethylether

* rhamnocitrin

* rhamnetin

* isorhamnetin

Lavonones:

* pinostrobin

* sakuranetin

Lavononols:

* pinobanksin etc.

An antioxidantic action of propolis has been an object of several studies.

The aim of this study is to investigate the action of propolis on lipid

peroxidation level in blood lipoproteins in vitro.

Methods. Free radical generation marker thiobarbituric acid reactive

materials (TBARM) was measured by fluorimetrical method in blood serum

lipoproteins

samples after their 20 min. Incubation with propolis (0,2 ml of 0,2%, 1%, and 2%

athanolic solution). MDA concentration was measured in samples after

incubation by fluorimetrical method (K. Yagi, 1976). Fluorescence intensity was

measured at 515nm, using " Hitachi " spectrofluorimeter. In serum samples,

incubated

with 0,2%. propolis, MDA concentration was significantly lower than in control

samples (Figure). In samples, incubated with 1 and 2 % propolis, MDA

concentration was higher than in control sample: in samples,incubated with 20%.

propolis, MDA concentration was significantly higher than in control

samples(p<0.05).

 

VITAMINS

B1, B2, B6, C, E nicotinic acid, panthothenic acid A

The vitamins in propolis are in very small amounts being related mainly to

the pollen content.

MINERALS

Sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), barium (Ba), boron

(B) (traces), strontium (Sr), zinc (Zn), cadium (Cd), aluminium silicon (Si),

lead (Pb),selenium (Se) (traces), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni),chromium (Cr),

manganese (Mn), titanium (Ti), silver (Ag), copper (Cu),cobalt (CO), molybdenum

(Mo), vanadium(V)

 

 

 

Some good experiences

6 weeks now, 2 patients with incurable liver cirrhosis and 2 patients with

hepatitis / liver trouble.

 

The children of these incurable patients searched the Internet for new,

alternative methods of curing these diseases, and also spoke to the

Apitherapy-society.

 

After researching in some databanks, a mixture of pure dandelion honey (which

is in itself quite healthy for the liver) and other bee products such as

pollen, propolis, and gelee royale was made.

 

Each day, these patients received 4 teaspoons of this mixture per day, one 15

minutes before each meal, in addition to the usual medicine.

 

 

I have given 3 glasses of this mixture to firends, who all had bad

AST-levels. These cases showed dramatic improvement after no more than 17 days!
