Acne And Bee Pollen

Acne is a terrifying embarrassing and painful skin condition that unfortunately affect us at all ages, and it seems that bee pollen can help with acne to ease the symptoms, if not prevent it

Acne is always an unwelcome pain, both physically and socially.

The causes of acne is often debated, and its main exacting causes are still uncertain at this point in time. Some think it’s caused by genetics, some say it’s the environment, some say it’s what we eat, some say it’s infectious.

To make things complex, acne treatments are also very varied from individuals to individuals, to businesses and professionals. Some are conservative, some are aggressively managed, some prefer supplements, some prefer ointments, some prefer to wait it out.

Regardless, one of the better solutions may be bee pollen, and it seems to have some scientific evidence and proof.

One of the possible causes of acne is linked to poor nutrition diet, or a nutrient deficiency, causing our organs to not function as well as it should, and making hormones and secretions go out of sync.

It may not be that it’s the hormones that is secrets because there’s lack of nutrient, it could be our body’s way of telling us that it needs proper nutrition.

Bee Pollen As An Acne Solution

Researchers and authors Royden Brown and Carlson Wade wrote in their books that:

Bee pollen is the most nutritious and nutrient-rich natural superfood in the world, and only 30-35 grams per day and water is enough to sustain us humans healthily, as it is so rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, proteins, enzymes – all we need.

Depending on where the honey bees collect the pollen from, each pollen can contain a blend/mix of vital nutrients that will serve to provide your body and organs too.

Adding to that is bee pollen contain lecithin, which helps to absorb essential fatty acids and this improves skin reparation. Combine that with its rich vitamin content (A and C which are antioxidants that prevent infections and combating free radicals that make our body, organs and skin sag), they tag-team to keep our skin supple and healthy.

I’d like to add on a little more about anti-oxidants – their main function is to travel around in the body and blood streams and to lock/break harmful free radicals that destroy skin cells and harmful chemicals in our system.

Some customers actually take the bee pollen capsules, empty out the content into a mixing bowl, add in honey, some water, mix and then apply it to their skin to treat acne and pimple, as well as other skin conditions such as sunburn, cuts etc, and they swear by it.

How To Enjoy The True Health Benefits Of Bee Pollen

If you’re deciding on buying bee pollen to improve your health and energy levels, you must pay attention to three things:

  • Where the pollen is sourced: it needs to be harvested from an area that is pollutant/contaminant-free, pure, pristine and natural. Avoid anything that is near an industrialized or polluted area
  • The pollen needs to be freeze dried and not heat dried. Heat drying destroys all the active and health-giving nutrients and enzymes, rendering the pollen useless
  • The pollen supplement needs to be managed in a cGMP-compliant facility, that adheres to strict US FDA standards, and has individual Certificates of Analysis for every batch, which signifies quality. Such supplements are called nutraceuticals, the highest quality.

Many bee pollen products are from China or non-GMP companies which may contain contaminants or heat-dried pollen, both of which renders the pollen useless, and the contaminants are risk to your health.

I am very particular on what I take, I will only take good things and not allow myself/my body to take contaminated products, and I wish the same for you too.

The bee pollen supplement I take is freeze dried and scientifically formulated to also contain additional synergistic enzymes, amino acids and minerals to enhance the health benefits.

The pollen is harvested from north-western corner of south island of New Zealand, a pure and pristine area beside a national part that is free from industrialization and airborne pollution.

Its nutritional effects will be noticed and I comfortably personally endorse it. When you factor in the fact that it is processed and manufactured in GMP compliant facilities with standards that meet the FDA’s standards for pharmaceutical-grade quality drugs, it’s even better.

Basically earning this a nutraceutical status (highest label for a supplement in terms of quality), and this is not common nor easily found in the US.

The manufacturer also offers a 365 days money back guarantee or full product replacement – something the health world don’t offer today. It’s also less expensive than other supplements while still maintaining a high level of quality, pharmaceutical quality.

I’ve been taking this personally since 2014, and I honestly say this: it has helped me a lot in my life, giving me all the energy, health and wellness I need to handle my 5 AM to 10 PM days everyday, young children, family, manage multiple businesses, meetings, investments, readings etc.

To me, it’s one of my favorite and important supplements that I take every day. Without fail.
