Like bee
pollen, Fresh royal
jelly is a rich treasure chest of nutrients and energy.Royal
jelly's main constituents are: carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids (approximately
15%, 12%, and 5%, respectively). Royal jelly proteins are rich in natural hormones
such as pheromones, almost all amino acids including essential amino acids, B
group vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, pyridoxin, niacin, biotin, pantothenic acid,
folic, and inositol), and vitamin A, C, D, and E. Overall, aspartic acid accounts
for about 16% of royal jelly's protein content. Gelatin, a precursor of collagen
and accounts for royal jelly's ability for keeping youthful skin, is also among
royal jelly's constituents. Royal jelly also contains sugars, sterols, phosphorus
compounds, essential fatty acids, and acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter. Other
ingredients are nucleic acids, water, and numerous other trace ingredients including
calcium, copper, potassium, silicon, and sulfur that are presumably very important
for royal jelly's nutritional and therapeutic properties.
COMPOSITION OF ROYAL JELLY: Research studies show that Royal Jelly contains
vitamins A, B1,B2, B6, B12, D, E, Folic acid, Nicotinamide, Pantothenic acid,
Minerals and 17 kinds of Amino acids. Royal jelly contains acetyl choline, enzymes,
10-Hydroxy-Decenoic acid which was found by Dr. Butanandt of Germany. The unusual
nature of Royal Jelly has prompted many investigations into its chemical nature
and pharmaceutical properties. But the mystery of this food has yet to be completed.
