What is propolis
Propolis is the "wax glue" of the hive, which is the resin secreted by the trees that bees intentionally fly through certain woods, using their hind legs to dip into the resin, and then use their own spit out enzymes and beeswax to mix to become propolis, which is anti-bacterial, anti-viral, protective of the larvae, and has been used for many years to protect the larvae. It is anti-bacterial and anti-virus, and protects the larvae, young bees and queen bees in a sterile state, so its main function is to protect the hive, and it looks like a sticky wax before it is extracted. Hanyu Pinyin: Fengjiao, English Name: Propolis, Latin Name: CollaApis, Characteristics: Bitter, Pungent, Cold. Attributes to the spleen and stomach meridian. Properties: brownish yellow or yellowish brown solid block, softened by heat and sticky, with a characteristic aromatic odor. Propolis is a kind of gelatinous solid with aromatic odor processed by bees from the resin (gum) collected from plant buds or trunks, mixed with the secretions of their palatine glands and wax glands. Propolis is an opaque solid with a smooth or rough surface, a sandy fracture surface, and a cut surface similar in appearance to marble. It is yellowish brown, brownish brown, grayish brown, grayish green, dark green, and very few are black. It has a special aromatic flavor. Effects and Indications: Taking internally to tonify weakness, dissolve turbid fat and quench thirst; using externally to detoxify and reduce swelling. Internal use for weakness and premature aging, hyperlipidemia, thirst; external use for skin cracks, burns.
How to eat propolis
As we all know, propolis is a very good thing, but how to eat good things specifically? How to eat to achieve the very ideal results? Propolis is a better health product, is conducive to improving immunity, but also soften blood vessels. Here to recommend a few ways to eat. First, if you take please first in the mouth with a mouthful of water, and then propolis directly into the mouth and the mouth of the water fully mixed, so that you can achieve the best results; Second, if you want to improve the taste of propolis, you can add propolis in milk, coffee, honey and other beverages to take together, so that you can improve the taste, but also to avoid the phenomenon of propolis viscous wall. In addition, friends taking medicinal wine can also be dropped into the wine to take; three is propolis on an empty stomach to take the best results, diabetic patients in the taking time, with the same as taking hypoglycemic drugs, half an hour before meals to take; four is if it is a wet propolis (such as: propolis liquid), you can drop in the steamed bread and other staple food to eat together; if it is the capsule propolis (such as: propolis hard capsule, propolis soft capsule), morning and evening, each eat a (or two ), take it with warm water.
Brazilian propolis
Brazilian propolis refers to propolis produced in Brazil, because of its appearance and composition and other parts of the world propolis has a big difference, and the role of Brazilian propolis is clear, the pharmacological research is sufficient and the world is concerned about, is the world's best quality propolis. Brazilian propolis is sought after by the world's propolis industry because it contains a special ingredient called "atropine C". It has been said that "the world of propolis is Brazil".
Brazilian propolis development earlier, with a mature traditional extraction technology, the international research on the biological activity of propolis, many of which are published in Brazilian propolis as research materials. Under the attention and support of the Brazilian government, many universities and scientific research institutions such as Sao Paulo, Brazil, have increased the development and application of propolis, and have gained great achievements. On the other hand, Brazilian green propolis removes beeswax, which is ineffective for the human body and cannot be absorbed by the stomach and intestines, from the propolis during the processing and extraction stage. The processing and extraction technology of Brazilian propolis is at the world's leading level.
What is propolis
Propolis is the hive side of the "wax glue", the bees deliberately fly over certain woods, the use of hind legs stained with resin secreted by the trees, to the hive side of the resin to shoot down and then use their own spit out enzymes and beeswax mixed into propolis, which is the most important part of the hive side of the hive. When they arrive at the hive, they tap off the resin and mix it with the enzymes they spit out and beeswax to make propolis, which is anti-bacterial and anti-viral, and protects the entire hive, including larvae, young bees, and the queen, to survive in a sterile state, so its main function is to protect the hive, and it appears to be a viscous wax before being extracted. Hanyu Pinyin: Fengjiao, English Name: Propolis, Latin Name: CollaApis, Characteristics: Bitter, Pungent, Cold. Attributes to the spleen and stomach meridians. Characteristics: brownish yellow or yellow-brown solid block, softened by heat and sticky, with a characteristic aromatic odor. Propolis is a kind of gelatinous solid with aromatic odor processed by bees from the resin (gum) collected from plant buds or trunks, mixed with the secretions of their palatine glands and wax glands. Propolis is an opaque solid with a smooth or rough surface, a sandy fracture surface, and a cut surface similar to that of marble. It is yellowish brown, brownish brown, grayish brown, grayish green, dark green, and very few are black. It has a special aromatic flavor. Effects and Indications: Taking internally to tonify weakness, dissolve turbid fat and quench thirst; using externally to detoxify and reduce swelling. Internal use for weakness and premature aging, hyperlipidemia, thirst; external use for skin cracks, burns.
Types of propolis
Propolis is a natural solid with an aromatic odor and viscosity, collected by bees from young shoots and trunks of coniferous forests or broad-leaved forests, such as resins, volatile oils and other secretions, processed by bees through repeated chewing, and bees, such as palatine glands, tongue glands and other glandular secretions, and a certain proportion of beeswax, pollen, mixed with a kind of natural transformation. Gelatinous substance. The resin collected by bees is a kind of metabolic secondary organisms of plant tissue cells, mostly mixed with volatile oils and other substances, which is the product of the self-protection mechanism of the plant, which enables the plant to protect the newborn larvae and wounded parts from microorganisms and insects, and this kind of self-protection mechanism of the plant, which was produced and perfected by the plant in the process of natural evolution. This product of the protective mechanism formed in nature, with amazing interconnections, gradually developed to bees and other creatures and even human beings get **** enjoy. China's common gum source plants, mainly poplar genus and willow, pine, birch, elm, acacia and peach, plum, apricot, chestnut, pear trees. However, resin is not a substitute for propolis. Resin is only the raw material from which bees process propolis. The biggest difference between propolis and resin is that propolis is biologically transformed by bees into a substance with more active factors and a wider, more obvious biological and pharmacological effect. Therefore, propolis and resin are not the same.
Hair propolis: obtained directly from the beehive, unprocessed, contains impurities such as wood shavings from bee limbs, sediment, burlap fibers, etc., and is in the form of opaque clumps or crumbs, suitable for external use or as a feed fortifier for chickens, pigs, cows, and sheep.

How to identify propolis
First, the water solubility and impurities of superior
The quality of the propolis product should be completely dissolved in water, without any impurities; but the general propolis tablets and hard capsule is difficult to be dissolved by the water, some of them can not be in the water soaked for a month; soft capsule has Most of the soft capsules are not completely dissolved in water and become a paste; poor quality propolis liquid will have a lot of substances sticking to the wall of the cup. This is due to the fact that propolis contains a lot of beeswax, which can be harmful to the human body.
The second is the concentration, color and purity
Good propolis in water should be golden yellow, which is the original color of the precious flavonoids. The higher the concentration, the higher the propolis content. But while paying attention to the concentration, you also need to observe the purity of the aqueous solution. Some propolis in the production of added substances such as emulsifiers, the aqueous solution also looks like a high concentration, the color is also very golden, but the purity of its solution is not high, there is a sense of turbidity, and often the bottom of the cup with precipitation. Will be placed for a day or two, found that the aqueous solution becomes orange-red, then this shows that the manufacturer in the propolis liquid added emulsifiers and other substances.
Third is taste
If, through the above observations, no obvious problems with the propolis product are found, then the last step is to taste the aqueous solution. Real propolis has a very light bitter taste in the mouth, but when swallowed there is a pungent feeling in the throat. The stronger the pungency, the higher the quality of the propolis. This is the most critical step in identifying the quality of propolis. Almost all propolis products that appear to be of good quality will show their true colors during this process. The vast majority of defects in propolis products can be detected through these steps. When you buy propolis products in the future, ask the vendor to put the product in water and use this method to easily judge its quality.
Effects of propolis
Research has proven that propolis has an inhibitory effect on 25 types of bacteria. Anti-syphilis effect, in 1975, Fangzhu and others in China proved through tests that propolis has a strong inhibitory effect on at least 10 kinds of ringworm bacteria. Propolis can not only be used alone to inhibit or kill disease-causing bacteria, viruses, protozoa, etc., but can also be used in combination with certain antibiotics and penicillin (Penicilin) to improve the antibacterial power of these antibiotics and prolong their antibacterial activity. Propolis has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Propolis has the effect of promoting the regeneration of tissue cells. Propolis has a therapeutic effect on gastric ulcers. Propolis lowers both triglycerides and cholesterol. Propolis also has other effects: treatment of arthritis, gallstone pain, pneumonia, bronchitis, treatment of burns, treatment of corns, enhancement of immune function, propolis can enhance the swallowing ability of macrophages, and natural killer (NK) cell activity, that is to say, it can improve the immune function of the body. This is an important mechanism for propolis to play a health care role. The curative effect of propolis on infectious diseases is, on the one hand, through the inhibition of the growth and reproduction of disease-causing microorganisms, and on the other hand, through the enhancement of the body's ability to resist disease, and finally play a role in the elimination of pathogens, is the role of the disease is cured. In addition, propolis can also nutritious skin, delay aging, propolis has a good antioxidant, remove free radicals, and anti-inflammatory, detoxification, improve circulation, endocrine regulation, promote regeneration, so you can eliminate acne, acne, decomposition of pigmented spots, reduce wrinkles, delay aging, so that the skin regained its delicate, smooth, red.
