WHAT IS ROYAL JELLY? The honeybee has been one of
the greatest friends to the mankind for thousands of years, providing honey, pollen,
propolis, wax and Royal Jelly. Royal Jelly is a thick, milky food made from pollen
and honey, collected and chewed by young worker honeybees, secreted from their
pharyngeal glands for feeding Queen Bee.
THE MIRACLE OF ROYAL JELLY: The great nutritional significance of Royal
Jelly is the fact that anatomical and functional differentiation of the female
larvae is totally dependent upon the nature of their diet in their early developmental
stage. In the larvae stage, they are absolutely identical and feed on Royal jelly
for the first three days after hatching. The fertilized eggs give rise to females
which are either sexually immature small worker bees or large, fertile Queens.
From the fourth day on, only the special larvae selected to become the Queen continues
to be fed with Royal Jelly throughout her entire life, while the worker bees are
fed on regular honey and pollen. The fascinating discovery by scientists was that
nutrition was the only distinctive difference between the worker bees and the
Queen. The queen bee is the mother of a quarter of a million bees, and amazingly
lays over 2,000 eggs in a single day, a total more than twice her own weight.
The lifespan of the Queen lasts five years, contrary to the considerably shorter
life of workers-an average of five weeks. Royal jelly is truly a miracle food.
THE PURE, NATURAL FOOD-ROYAL JELLY: In the world of bees, they have
amazing ability to communicate with each other. The worker bees direct one another
to the sources of honey and pollen which have been uncontaminated by agricultural
chemicals. Their instincts are so highly developed that they naturally avoid harmfulness.
Therefore Royal Jelly is a safe, pure, natural food indeed.

| Beehive products, the collective name of honey, royal jelly,
propolis, and bee pollen, are natural foods revered as the fountain of youth since
the dawn of history. People in all cultures have collected honeycombs and used
royal jelly and other beehive products for nutrition and therapeutic purposes.
The healing power and health benefits of royal jelly and beehive products are
still one of the most sought-after subjects in modern time.
Royal jelly is the crown jewel among beehive products. Profoundly rich, creamy
white, and opalescent liquid, royal jelly is produced by worker bees, and used
exclusively for the nourishment of the queen bee with its amazing longevity (compared
with regular worker bees - several years vs. just 1-2 months!), energy, and stamina
for reproductive capability.
