Pollen Desensitzation

 Bee Pollen is derived from the most vital part of the plant. It is the primary protein source for “busy bees”. It has become a popular energy-enhancing nutritional supplement because it contains all of the essential vitamins and minerals needed by humans. Bee Pollen is even a nutritional mainstay for many Olympic athletes.

There is some evidence that it has anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-arthritis properties. Bee Pollen is used therapeutically to desensitize people who have hay fever and pollen sensitivities. However, individuals should be tested first to see if they have allergic reactions to a small amount of bee pollen before ingesting it in larger doses. People who can tolerate bee pollen can eat it to build up their resistance to hay fever-causing allergens.
