Bee pollen is the pollen mass stained by the bees when they collect honey, and beekeepers will install pollen removers on the beehives to collect the pollen. Bee pollen is rich in nutritional value, containing active enzymes, amino acids and vitamins and other nutrients, and can be taken directly in hot water or mixed with honey. So how much bee pollen is better to eat a day?

How much bee pollen is appropriate to eat a day

If bee pollen is used for health care, you can take 3 to 5 grams a day, and the specific dosage is recommended to be adjusted according to your own situation. The best way to take bee pollen is to eat it with honey and royal jelly, i.e., the three treasures of the bee, and the ratio of royal jelly, pollen and honey can be mixed according to the ratio of 1:1:2. Because the flavor of royal jelly is sour, spicy, pungent and astringent, many people cannot accept it. And honey is sweet and delicious, so a higher proportion of honey is to improve the flavor of the three treasures of bees.

Bee pollen on an empty stomach or after meals

Bee pollen on an empty stomach is most conducive to the absorption of nutrients. From a daily perspective, the best time to eat bee pollen is half an hour before breakfast and 1 to 2 hours after dinner. However, the best time to consume bee pollen is different for different people. The difference is that obese people can eat it before meals to enhance satiety, while people with weak gastrointestinal function can eat it 1 to 2 hours after meals to promote digestion.

The right way to eat bee pollen

Do not eat bee pollen with hot water. If the temperature exceeds 60 degrees, the active enzymes, amino acids and vitamins will be destroyed and the desired effect will not be achieved. The easiest way to consume is to take it with warm water below 40 degrees Celsius. You can also mix bee pollen and honey in the ratio of 1:2. However, if you take it with honey, you should not take it on an empty stomach. The reason is that drinking honey on an empty stomach will stimulate the stomach and intestines, and the stomach will secrete a large amount of gastric acid, and too much gastric acid can easily cause gastric ulcers and even gastric perforation and other gastrointestinal diseases.

Note that the first month month to eat pollen do not interrupt. Three days of fishing and two days of sunshine, the effect will be greatly reduced.
