Since ancient times, people have used bee products for treatment.

Honey and propolis are popular for relieving cold symptoms, strengthening the immune system and healing the body. But not everyone knows that bees produce unique royal jelly, medicinal properties which is superior to the effects of some synthetic medications.

Let's consider what is included in the healing substance and how it affects internal organs and systems.

Description of bee jelly

The substance produced by the glands of nurse bees and called bee jelly (bread bread, bee bread or “royal jelly”) is a yellow-white mixture with a thick sticky consistency. Since the basis of the milk is pollen grains, the substance has a sour-sharp taste and a characteristic floral aroma.

Scientists were able to find out as a result of what processes pollen grains turn into valuable nutritious product. Bees bring microparticles on their paws and place them in honeycombs, carefully treating them with the saliva of the pharyngeal glands, compacting them and sealing them with particles of honey. In a moist, closed environment, grains germinate and, under the influence of fructose and salivary enzymes, begin to ferment. Fermentation caused by lactic acid bacteria continues for 2 weeks. As a result of the process, a protein feed is formed that has disinfectant properties and contains large number valuable nutrients.

Nurses give royal jelly to bee offspring - worker bee larvae - in the first 3 days after their appearance. The uterus feeds on a mixture saturated with bioactive minerals and vitamins throughout its life.

Scientists believe that it is precisely due to the consumption of unique food that the queen bee lives for more than 5 years, while the lifespan of ordinary worker bees that feed on nectar does not exceed 2-2.5 months.

Collection of royal jelly, beneficial properties which determines the high demand for it, is carried out within 1-2 months at a certain period of the year. The process is very painstaking and requires accuracy. The collected “jelly” belongs to the group of elite products and is distinguished by its significant cost.

Composition of mother feed

Perga includes:

• more than 60% water;
• from 15 to 18% proteins;
• over 15% carbohydrates;
• up to 5% fat.

Also included valuable product includes:

• nucleic and organic acids;
• vitamins;
• hormones;
• acetylcholine;
• micro- and macroelements;
• enzymes (protease, amylase, glucose oxidase, etc.).

The list includes all B vitamins, compounds from groups A, C, D and E. B the greatest number Vitamins B5 (pantothenic acid) and B7 (biotin) are presented.

Royal jelly, useful qualities which are determined by its composition, contains more than 15 types of minerals, including iron, selenium, zinc, etc.

High-quality bee food in terms of the quantity and variety of amino acids in its composition is close to chicken egg, animal meat and milk, but significantly exceeds them in the content of proline, lysine, glutamic acid. This, in turn, explains the high bactericidal and antiviral characteristics of beebread.

The healing qualities of bee jelly

A significant percentage of bee bread contains substances that have a direct effect on the immune system of the human body, allowing it to be considered a natural adaptogenic substance. Taking royal jelly, reviews of which include opinions of people of different ages, increases the resistance of immunity to unfavorable factors: heat, cold, pressure surges, temperature changes, exposure to toxins and harmful chemicals.

Basic healing qualities bee jelly are manifested:

1. In bactericidal, bacteriostatic, antiviral effects. Bee bread is recommended for use when acute infections caused by viruses and bacteria.

2. In a beneficial effect on work digestive system. The substances that make up beebread enhance peristalsis gastrointestinal tract, remove toxins from the liver and prevent its fatty degeneration. Taking the drug for erosive and ulcerative lesions of the intestinal mucosa allows you to achieve complete healing.

3. In improving metabolic processes, promoting tissue restoration, reducing fat and increasing muscle mass. Increased endurance of the body occurs due to the minerals and amino acids contained in the composition.

4. In influencing the functionality of the heart muscle and the walls of blood vessels, as a result of which blood pressure levels are normalized, the amount of cholesterol in the blood decreases, and metabolism in the myocardium increases. Small portions of bee bread are recommended for hypertension, larger portions for hypotension.

5. In recovery hormonal levels, activation of the gonads and functions, increased libido and fertility.

6. In normalizing the functioning of organs endocrine system.

7. In activation of processes that trigger tissue regeneration, affecting the condition skin, hair and nails.

8. In influencing functional state autonomic and central nervous systems. A number of components that make up beebread help restore brain activity and have an anti-stress and antidepressant effect.

9. Increasing functionality visual organs, respiratory system.

10. Reducing the risk of immune and cancer pathologies.

Forms of preparations with royal jelly

Many people are interested in what medicinal properties royal jelly has and how to take it. this product? Dosages primarily depend on the forms in which the drug is produced.

Today, in the pharmacy chain you can buy bee jelly live (native), adsorbed, in granules, etc. According to experts, only the first completely retains all the properties given to it by nature, since it is sold to the consumer in an unchanged state. Adsorbed (in the form of tablets) and granulated milk undergoes drying, due to which some of the product’s qualities are lost.

It has also been established that some substances included in the valuable product are destroyed when mixed with honey, alcohol and other liquids. Therefore, it is not recommended to consume a mixture of honey and royal jelly. The bioactive components of bee bread can lose their healing properties even when in contact with air if stored improperly.

If you need to buy royal jelly, you need to pay attention to the packaging of the product. Thus, live “royal jelly” is packaged in penicillin vials or insulin syringes. The first option does not always seem appropriate, since the dosage prescribed rarely exceeds 100 mg daily. The volume of the drug in a 15-gram bottle is enough for 150 days. During this period, the milk will be constantly exposed to oxygen and will lose some of its medicinal qualities.

Packaging bee bread into syringes with divisions in milliliters and storing it in the refrigerator meets all the requirements for product quality.

Before taking royal jelly, you need to familiarize yourself with the contraindications. Taking the substance is not recommended for people with Addison's syndrome, during acute infectious processes and exacerbation of chronic pathologies, as well as hypersensitivity organism to bee products.

Rules for taking royal jelly

Royal jelly, the benefits and harms of which are described above, is taken in courses. Before using the medicine, consult a doctor.

The drug will bring maximum benefit if taken in accordance with the basic rules:

1. Live milk is taken in the morning, after rinsing your mouth cool water. Remove the cap from the syringe, squeeze 100 mg of the product onto a plastic spoon and place it under the tongue. The syringe is closed and returned to the refrigerator. The drug is absorbed within 5 minutes. You can start breakfast in a quarter of an hour.
2. Toothpaste destroys the compounds that make up the medicine, so teeth are brushed not before taking beebread, but after breakfast.
3. Bee jelly should not be taken with food or liquid. It is also prohibited for adults to consume honey with royal jelly: the beneficial properties of the drug are deactivated.

But it should be noted that children can use bee bread in combination with honey. This good way Boost your child’s immunity before exams, competitions and other events that require attention. 1 part of bee bread is mixed with 100 parts of honey and consumed 1 teaspoon in the morning.

Royal jelly is a secretion product of honey bees. It is produced by insects to feed the larvae and the main bee of the hive - the queen. The natural product contains a large amount of substances beneficial to the human body. In folk medicine it is used to treat various diseases and strengthening the immune system.

The milk is creamy in color. Its taste contains sour tones, it has a sharp and burning aroma. The pH of royal jelly is 3.5–4.5. Store the product in the refrigerator in a hermetically sealed container at a temperature of +3 °C. In heat, it begins to intensively oxidize and lose its healing properties. The dry matter content in it is about 34%.

According to its consistency, bee jelly can be:

• thick - intended for feeding the queen;
• liquid - for feeding larvae.

The larvae feed on royal jelly during the first 3 days of their development. Nectar-gathering worker bees, 4–15 days old, secrete a cream-like product from the maxillary and pharyngeal glands. Their mixture forms a creamy mass called royal jelly.

Honeybees simultaneously lay from 9 to 150 queen cells in the absence of a queen. Larvae settle in them. Cells with larvae are filled with 2-3 mg of milk, and the queen cell with 200-400 mg.

How to get royal jelly

When collecting the product, beekeepers take into account biological features insects Bees are stimulated to produce royal jelly by placing the queen in new family larvae. The best time It is considered the height of summer for collection. Each beekeeper has his own tricks, but they are all based on general principles.

Bees spend a lot of energy feeding the larvae, since the entire brood can die in a few minutes. In this regard, the nurse has to produce up to 1300 doses of milk

A special feature of the collection is that the bees do not store it for long-term storage. The product can only be collected during the period when queen bees are growing. One way to extract milk is to use bowls. The essence of the process comes down to the fact that one-day-old larvae are transferred from their native places to small wax plates.

The environment in which they will be located must have:

• relative air humidity 90–95%;
• temperature 25–30 °C.

To transfer larvae from one environment to another, special spatulas are used. Before transfer begins, the larvae must undergo their first moult. After this process, their white coating becomes shiny. Add 1 drop of milk to the bottom of the bowls intended for placing larvae, the freshness of which should not exceed a day.

Using two or three drops to fill the bowls leads to a deterioration in the quality of the future product. The bowls intended for obtaining royal jelly are placed on a grafting frame, which is installed where the motherless bee colony lives. On the third day after installation, the frame can be removed to collect milk.

You can increase its amount if certain conditions are met:

• To produce a product, young bees with a gland function indicator above average are selected;
• during the “milking” period, the bees are fed with sugar syrup;
• To increase queen cells, nests are insulated and their size is reduced.

Collection requires sterility. In home beekeeping, the bowls are processed at a temperature of 30 °C. The product is extracted after removing the larvae from them using a special spatula. It must be made of the same material as the container for collecting milk. To exclude the possibility of chemical reactions The walls of the prefabricated vessels are treated with wax.

The duration of milk production by one bee colony is 3 weeks.. The quality of the collected product must meet certain requirements. In the Russian Federation they are formulated in GOST 28888–90.

Product composition

An important component of royal jelly is acetylcholine. It plays a huge role in strengthening memory and maintaining sexual functions. 66% of the bee product consists of water. About 15 - 19% of its composition belongs to representatives of the protein group. It includes enzymes:

• lipoproteins;
• albumins;
• globulins and other protein substances.

To the group non-protein substances includes peptides and amino acids. Chemical composition depends on many factors. Among them:

• a species of race of milk-producing bees;
• biological environment surrounding the nest.

All beekeeping products are, to one degree or another, healing for the human body - this is a well-known fact. And if honey, propolis, beebread, pollen are widely used for treatment and prevention, strengthening the immune system, then royal jelly, which has exceptional beneficial properties for health, is used in much smaller quantities - due to the strength of the effect and minimal amounts of production.

In a bee colony, each group of bees performs certain functions: worker bees bring nectar, build honeycombs, guard the hive, and raise offspring. The youngest bees feed the larvae and feed the queen. In the first three days, the larvae feed exclusively on royal jelly, but for the queen bee, this bee product is the basis of the diet, providing her with high productivity and more long term life. If working individuals feeding on nectar live at most 50-60 days, then the queen, with constant feeding of royal jelly, can live up to 7 years.

Externally, the product is a jelly-like mass with a pleasant sourish-burning taste and resembles milk only in its white color. Since obtaining royal jelly is a labor-intensive process, and it can be obtained only for a short period of the year (several weeks), the cost of royal jelly is quite high. Until recently, royal jelly was available only to high-ranking people, which is why this beekeeping product was called “royal jelly.”

Young individuals (age 5-15 days) are capable of producing a nutritious product, which is royal jelly, through two glands, the pharyngeal and submandibular glands. Its chemical composition is unique in its biological activity, and the main components are:

• 57-70% water;
• 17-45% proteins;
• 18-52% sugars;
• 3.5-19% lipids;
• 2-3% ash substances.

The number of components of royal jelly varies depending on the age of the larva. For example, the protein content increases, which provides an almost instantaneous increase in weight by 1500 times, and the larvae of the uterus - by almost 3000 times per flow. 5 days The content of the most significant amino acids in royal jelly (glutamine, lysine, aspartic acid) is much higher compared to the most nutritious foods.

Royal jelly contains almost all B vitamins, vitamins A, C, E, D, up to 16 of the most essential microelements, easily digestible sugars.

The composition of royal jelly includes up to 400 components, but up to 16% of them remain unknown to this day. Its high biological activity is explained by the harmonious combination of the main nutritional components and biogenic regulators: neurohormones, vitamins, high-energy compounds, hormonal active substances etc.

Important! Great content free fatty acids in royal jelly determines its high biological activity and at the same time causes chemical instability of the bee product. A special place belongs to 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid, which occupies up to 90% general content fatty acids and can be used as a quality marker when testing royal jelly. The same substance gives the product one of its most valuable properties – the ability to destroy the membranes of cancer cells.

The effect of royal jelly is classified mainly as a general tonic. However, the unique bee product also has other beneficial properties:

• Strengthening the nervous system. The use of royal jelly in treatment and prevention helps to: increase the functionality of the central nervous system (incl. optic nerve), resistance to various kinds of stress (fighting depression, normalizing sleep, concentrating memory);
• Normalization of the functioning of blood vessels and the heart. Royal jelly contains many biologically active substances that, in small quantities, can lower blood pressure, and in large quantities, increase it. In addition, bee jelly contains components that improve blood composition and strengthen the walls of blood vessels;
• Stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract. Under the influence of the substances contained in royal jelly, appetite appears and secretion is stimulated. gastric juice, as well as enzymes that accelerate the absorption of food. Royal food is especially recommended for use by athletes and premature infants;
• Normalization of the functioning of the endocrine system. The presence of the most important hormones in royal jelly helps regulate the functions of the endocrine glands;
• Activation of the functioning of the sexual sphere. Since the gonads are part of the endocrine system, the effect of royal jelly extends to them: the presence of hormones, zinc, vitamin E, selenium stimulates sexual desire, has a positive effect on sperm quality, reduces pain syndrome during menstruation;
• Acceleration of metabolism. Royal jelly contains amino acids, microelements, vitamins, which promote cell renewal and the removal of toxins, as a result of which endurance increases, aging slows down, and performance quickly resumes;
• Strengthening immunity. The presence of many components with antioxidant properties in royal jelly (vitamins, zinc, selenium, copper, organic acids, phospholipids, etc.) allows even microscopic doses of bee jelly to successfully fight pathogenic microflora.

Important! Royal jelly has exclusively beneficial influence for every organ and system human body. The uniqueness of the product lies in the maximum balance of all active ingredients, which ensures their high digestibility by the body.

Royal jelly has a wide range of applications for health purposes and even the creation of cosmetics:

• Cardiovascular pathologies. Royal jelly – an indispensable tool for the prevention and treatment of angina pectoris and ischemia, blood pressure destabilization, various forms atherosclerosis;
• For gastrointestinal diseases. Royal jelly has strong regenerating properties, which makes it effective in treating various types of damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa and other internal organs;
• For colds, acute respiratory viral infections, acute respiratory infections. Any of the beekeeping products has antiseptic and antibacterial properties, but in bee jelly these qualities are enhanced many times over;
• To activate metabolism. Royal jelly is used in the treatment of children with atrophy and hypertrophy, adults for weight loss, prescribed to nursing mothers to stimulate lactation, pregnant women to eliminate swelling and the consequences of intoxication;
• For dermatological diseases. Royal jelly is widely used in prevention and therapy skin diseases, used to remove warts, eliminate ulcers and other lesions;
• In cosmetology. The regenerating and metabolism-enhancing properties of royal jelly allow it to be effective application as part of masks and creams for rejuvenation and restoration of the skin.

Important! A unique bee product is widely used in pure for preventive purposes– to increase the body’s resistance to destruction by both internal and external factors. Royal jelly is used to eliminate problems of infertility (both sexes), impotence, prostatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, pathological conditions in childhood. For preventive purposes, milk is even included in bee bait in microscopic quantities.

Treatment of diseases with royal jelly and other bee products

The use of royal jelly is recommended in most cases in combination with other bee products (honey, beebread).

When exhausted

Treatment with milk must begin with a thorough and comprehensive examination, eliminating the root cause should be a priority. It is necessary to combine medication and folk remedies With spa treatment, creating the most comfortable conditions for the patient.

Royal jelly intake begins with a daily dose of 200 mg in combination with 40 g of pollen - until the first signs of improvement. Then the dose is reduced by half.

The effect of royal jelly is positive influence on the central nervous system with depressive states of varying intensity. The daily dose of milk is 100-150 mg (at the same time - taking St. John's wort tablets and 20 g of pollen). The visible effect of use appears after 10-12 days. However, the initial stage acute conditions must be treated with medication in a hospital setting.

For vegetative dystonia

The initial symptoms of a common pathology almost always go unnoticed or cannot be eliminated with traditional methods. using medicinal methods. When taking royal food (bee jelly) and pollen, the functioning of the autonomic nervous system is stabilized. The initial daily dose is 200 mg of fresh royal jelly and 40 g of pollen, subsequently (for 2 months) take half the dose.

For gastrointestinal diseases

Daily dosage for illnesses digestive tract is 150 mg of royal jelly with simultaneous use 20 g pollen. In addition, the use of decoctions and infusions of medicinal herbs is recommended.

For diabetes

Royal jelly is used as an aid to stimulate digestion. You must first consult a doctor. The recommended daily dose is 50-100 mg.

The most effective in case of problems with blood vessels or heart, as practice has shown, is a combination of honey with royal jelly. Moreover, when different types pathological conditions, the proportion may be different:

• For angina pectoris: for 20 g of honey – 150 mg of royal jelly (daily dose);
• To prevent a heart attack: 30 g and 200 mg, respectively, with the addition of 500 mg of magnesium;
• For vascular pathologies: honey with royal jelly in a ratio of 2-3 tsp. and 100-150 mg.

For skin diseases

The bactericidal and regenerating properties of royal jelly are in demand both for internal use and for the creation of ointments:

• Orally: 20 g of pollen in combination with 150 mg of royal jelly daily;
• Externally: honey with royal jelly (100 g per 3 g).

Important! Taking a unique product should only be started after the cause has been determined pathological condition and in mandatory– consultation with the attending physician. Even in the absence of a tendency to allergies, the initial dose should be minimal.

During the season with one bee family with medium strength you can collect up to 150 mg of royal jelly. To carry out this procedure, beekeepers almost always use the family orphan method:

• Divide the hive into 2 parts, leaving several frames with bees without a queen;
• In the orphaned part there are several frames with printed brood and food, as well as one frame with one-day seeding;
• Nurse bees will emerge from the printed brood, and queen cells will be built from the one-day-old brood.

After about a week, the optimal amount of bee jelly is in the queen cells, then selection is carried out. The queen cells are removed from the hive and stored in the refrigerator along with the royal jelly in an airtight bag. Another way is to extract the product and seal it or process it, but this process requires special sterile conditions and is limited in time: milk literally within 15 minutes. after extraction it loses some of its healing properties.

Most best way consumption of royal jelly - in fresh. However, to preserve all the healing properties, it is necessary to protect it from exposure to light, air, and high temperatures. Therefore, fresh use is almost unrealistic (unless you are a beekeeper). For treatment and prevention, royal jelly is processed in a certain way, and there are several ways:

• Drying (adsorption). All moisture is evaporated from the “royal jelly”, leaving only a concentrated beneficial extract. In this form, the product can be stored for up to 2 years. The daily dose of such a remedy is from 5 to 30 granules (depending on the severity of the condition), divided into several equal doses. The course of treatment is up to 30 days;
• Freezing. At home, in an airtight container, royal jelly retains its beneficial properties for up to 14 days. Deep dry freezing allows you to extend this period to 1.5 years. This product is taken after preliminary gradual defrosting, 0.5 tsp. within 1-2 months. ;
• Honey with royal jelly. This mixture is the most preferred option for use, since it increases the shelf life of the beekeeping product. As a rule, a 2% concentration of royal jelly is used for prevention. When purchasing a product, it is best to use the services of a well-known beekeeper or a company with a proven reputation;
• Encapsulation. In online stores, consumers are offered a product from Asian manufacturers, 100 capsules (from 10 to 20 mg) per package. The recommended course of administration is three times a year, 1 capsule per day for 4-6 weeks.

Important! For each type of royal food (bee jelly), it is necessary to obtain a recommendation from an apitherapist, since the product has a number of contraindications:

• Various types of neoplasms;
• Pathological conditions of the adrenal glands;
• Addison's disease;
• Infectious diseases in acute form;
• Individual intolerance to bee products.

It must be remembered that royal jelly is the strongest biogenic stimulant, therefore doses must be carefully adjusted, and administration at initial stages– occur in the minimum recommended dosages and after consulting a doctor.

How to take it correctly

The most effective way to take royal jelly is by sucking (put under the tongue, then wait for complete dissolution). Thus, the product is absorbed directly into the blood without being exposed to the aggressive environment of the stomach. The method is suitable for tablets, capsules, and mixtures with honey. Even an alcohol emulsion should be kept in the mouth longer for greater effect.

The time for taking royal food (bee jelly) for one-time use is in the morning, since the product is a strong stimulant and has a stimulating effect on the nervous system. If multiple doses are necessary, use the product within 30 minutes. before meals, and the last time - at least 3 hours before bedtime.

In some cases, royal jelly is truly a panacea, and in terms of prevention it is considered an indispensable product, 100% justifying the ancient name “royal jelly”.

For thousands of years, bee jelly has been used to relieve many health problems. Its healing properties have found application in many fields of activity, including traditional and folk medicine, cosmetology. This universal product is considered a powerful biostimulant and has its own advantages and contraindications. At strict adherence advice for use excludes harm to the human body. Bee milk for feeding the queen and larvae is produced by bee glands in small quantities. Insects deposit it in special “queen cells” with the younger generation located there.
