Pollen itself is the male seed of flowers, required to fertilize the plant. Every single flower in the world puts forth a dusting of pollen, as do many orchard fruits and agricultural crops.  Bees are responsible for the pollination of more than 80 percent of the earth's foliage.
    Bee Pollen is abundant with vitamins, minerals, amino acids and more.  It contains all the essential components of life, and is rich in rare and precious compounds which work in a deep and lasting fashion.  Keep in mind that pollen composition may vary quite a bit in different localities in this country, as well as in the world. Some of the chief vitamins found in bee pollen are:

  Something you should know about pollen and allergies is that a single source "local" pollen is documented as almost always being deficient in one or more elements. It is necessary to blend pollens from many sources to ensure a full complement of all elements. This is the way we pack all of our pollen! A blend of pollens is best for allergies!
