Propolis The natural antibiotic
Propolis is yet another nutrient, and is hailed as a natural antibiotic. Propolis is a resinous substance collected by bees from plants and trees, it is mostly resins, balsams and waxes, and partly of pollen and essential oils, which are mixed by the bees salivary glands and used in the construction of the hive. It has been used thoughout history for a wide range of conditions.
Propolis contains a great variety of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and bioflavonoids. The Greeks used to use it to treat wounds. During the past twenty years, scientific studies have rediscovered Propolis and found it to be a great booster of the immune system, enhancing the immune response and resisitance against disease.
A recent study at Oxford University has revealed that Propolis can help to cure inflammatiions, while a Chinese research has found Propolis effective in treating hypertension and arteriosclerosis, and Soviet scientist's have shown that Propolis can prevent ulcers.
It is now used for a wide range of conditions such as colds, sore throats, coughs, allergies, vaginal infections, acne, and herpes. I have been asked if it would cure a chest infection, but I am sorry I have no idea.
