Bee Pollen has for many years been thought to be the purest form of whole food found upon the planet. Its nutritional characteristics are finely balanced by nature to provide the most uniquely balanced singular food source known to man. Historically, Bee Pollen was that which was thought to be provided by God to the children of Israel while sojourning their forty years in the wilderness. In fact, the Hebrew translation for manna, or bread from heaven, can also be translated as Bee Pollen!This food source is high in amino acids, select vitamins, minerals and important peptides that the body soaks up like a sponge. It is thought to provide stamina and energy for the sports enthusiast as well as provide a "jolt" for the mind for those of us under a great deal of stress and pressure. High Desert Bee Pollen (Bee Pollen): Thought to be the same "manna" miraculously provided to the children of Israel in their 40 year sojourn in the deserts of Saudi Arabia, bee pollen is perhaps the world's most perfectly balanced food fit for human consumption. Its balanced arrays of naturally amino acids and peptides are unparalleled by any other food; its closest rival is that of the white of eggs/albumin. Pollen contains 15% lecithin by volume, fatty acids (2.8 g per ounce) many minerals and trace elements (0.5 g per ounce), most of all the vitamins (3 mg per ounce), enzymes (67 units per ounce) and cofactors, carbohydrates (5 g per ounce), fiber (1 g per ounce), reducing sugars (8 g per pounce), proteins, peptides and all essential amino acids (total protein is 20% by volume or 7.1 grams per ounce), and other active substances that have yet been isolated or identified. It appears to a rejuvenating compound which has a profound biological effect, preventing premature aging of the cells and stimulating new growth of skin tissue as well. Interestingly, most of those recorded to have lived in excess of 125 years claimed that the majority of their diet was bee pollen and honey.
