Bee pollen is a nutrient-rich substance collected by bees from flowering plants, consisting of pollen grains, nectar, enzymes, and bee secretions. The pollen is collected at the hive in a small tray placed during high-pollen flow times of the year. Pollen is categorized as a “superfood” and also a great source of antioxidants. Bee pollen is popularly used to help combat seasonal allergies by exposing you to what gives you the seasonal sniffles.
