The difference between royal jelly and honey is that worker bees temporarily store the collected pollen and nectar in the stomach of the abdomen, and then transfer them to the nest for storage after returning to the nest. Because invertase secreted by bee's stomach is mixed in it, sucrose in nectar is decomposed into glucose and fructose, and the water contained in it is also evaporated and concentrated, becoming a colorless and transparent viscous substance. Among them, glucose and fructose each account for about 40%, the water content is below 20%, and the sweetness is high. Honey can be used as seasoning and has good physiological effects. It is often used in traditional Chinese medicine to reconcile hundreds of drugs.
Royal jelly is the secretion of the head gland of worker bees. The tongue gland of worker bees secretes transparent high-protein substances, and the upper frontal gland secretes white opaque creamy substances, and the two are mixed to form royal jelly. The fertilized eggs of the same bee, after hatching into larvae, will develop into industrious worker bees after 18 days if fed with bee milk and pollen, with a life span of one month. If you are fed with royal jelly, 1 1 days later you will become an incredible queen bee, with a life span of 8 years. It can be seen that it is the acquired food factor that determines the fate of bee larvae, and the reason is still unknown.
Royal jelly and honey are not comparable. Honey is collected and brewed by bees, and royal jelly is secreted by bees themselves. One is to supplement sugar, and the other is to supplement protein.
Honey and royal jelly are both products brewed by worker bees.
However, they are completely different in nature. Honey is collected by worker bees and temporarily stored in the honey sac (stomach) of the abdomen. Under the action of sucrase in salivary gland, sucrose in nectar is decomposed into glucose and fructose, and the water in nectar is concentrated into 20% honey with high sweetness, which also contains a variety of nutrients, which can be directly digested and absorbed by human body. Royal jelly is different from honey in that the former is animal food and the latter is plant food.
Royal jelly is not suitable for one part of people: people with allergic constitution. Chronic hypotension and hypoglycemia. Intestinal dysfunction and diarrhea. Because royal jelly can cause strong intestinal contraction, induce intestinal dysfunction, and lead to diarrhea, constipation and other diseases. At the beginning of the operation and when the woman is pregnant. After the operation, the patient lost too much blood and was seriously weak. Taking royal jelly at this time is easy to cause facial bleeding. Royal jelly can also stimulate uterine contraction and affect the normal development of the fetus. Anyone with hyperactivity of liver yang, damp-heat stagnation, high fever, massive hematemesis and jaundice liver disease should not take royal jelly. Children under/kloc-0 should not drink alcohol. Children are at the peak of development, and the hormone secretion in the body is in a complex and relatively balanced state, and the supply is relatively sufficient. Royal jelly contains very little hormones. If you drink it, it may lead to the imbalance of hormone secretion in the delicate balance of the child, further affecting the normal development of the child, which may lead to gigantism.
