So, what is bee?
Bee is a natural ingredient that has been used in various cultures for centuries. Bees are known for producing honey, which is a natural sweetener and a rich source of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Besides honey, other bee products include beeswax, royal jelly, bee pollen, and propolis. Beeswax is a natural emulsifier and can be used as a binding agent in food products. Royal jelly is a milky substance that is secreted by worker bees to feed the queen bee, and is sometimes used as a dietary supplement. Bee pollen is a rich source of protein, vitamins, and minerals, and is sometimes used as a superfood. Propolis is a resinous substance that bees use to protect their hive from pathogens, and is sometimes used as a natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredient in food and personal care products. Overall, bee products are versatile and can be used in a wide variety of food and cosmetic products, making them a valuable ingredient in many industries.
