Domestic Bee Pollen

Bee pollen sellers make high claims. It will improve your sex drive, end your hay fever, cut down on the number of times you have to get up during the night to pee, suppress your appetite, clear your skin, lubricate your bowels, reduce your craving for cigarettes (or cocaine), and stimulate your abilities to keep your spirits up even when the sky is falling right on top of your head. Sources state, with an enthusiasm that strikes me as more than a little strange, that The Royal Society of Naturalists successfully nourished generations of rats on nothing but water and bee pollen. What is known for sure is that bee pollen is a supplement that is rich in vitamins B, C, A and E, as well as 22 amino acids, collagen, lecithin, and minerals. It is available in bulk in the refrigerated case nearest the kitchen. Bee pollen in capsules can be found in the health and beauty corner.
