Royal Jelly and Bee Pollen are Known to be superfoods because of their high and concentrated nutritional value.
I love superfoods, in small amount you get a nutritional packed multivitamin and mineral in its natural form!
After trying Royal Jelly and Bee Pollen for the first time
and feeling the powerful influences of these two superfoods,
I decided to ask my friend, Ana Maria from RawPotHealth to explain to me more about their uniqueness.
Raw Pot Health Brings to the UK organic Raw Bee Pollen and Royal Jelly from a small family-owned farm, located in green Transylvania, a region of Romania.
She wrote to me this information that I’m happy to share with you, my dear readers-
Research and history have shown the therapeutic and beautifying properties
of beehive foods:
