Organic Flower Pollen

How we get it
We follow organic and bee-friendly beekeeping practices that focus on preserving the environment and protecting biodiversity. We breed our bees in full respect of their biorhythms and to protect them from disease we treat them with natural systems, without the use of synthetic chemicals. We use Kenya top bar hives, which replicate the hollow environment of the natural hive and encourage spontaneous bee behaviour. We place the hives in unspoilt areas with spontaneous flora, away from sources of pollution from agriculture, industry or towns.

How to take
One tablespoon of pollen in the morning to boost energy and wellbeing (children under 12: half a tablespoon). Do not take under 2 years of age or until you have a varied diet).
You can take it pure, after chewing. However, if you don't like its soft texture and intense, flowery, slightly bitter taste, you can dissolve it in drinks at room temperature (heat disperses its nutritional properties) or mix it with yoghurt and honey.
