Bee pollen is produced by combining honey, enzymes, flower pollen, nectar, wax and bee secretions. Foraging honey bees collect pollen from plants and transport it to the beehive, where it is stored and used as food for the rest of the colony.
Keep in mind that bee pollen is different from other bee products such as honey, royal jelly or honeycomb because these products may not contain pollen or may contain other substances.
Bee pollen is becoming more popular in the health community because it is full of nutrients, amino acids, vitamins, lipids and over 250 active substances that can help support your overall well-being during emergencies. (h/t to Healthline.com)

Safe for most people and easy to add to your diet
Bee pollen is available in granule or supplement form and is safe for most people. You can buy organic bee pollen at health stores or from your local beekeeper.
Add bee pollen granules to your favorite foods such as a bowl of oatmeal or smoothies.
Keep in mind that you should avoid pollen products if you have pollen or bee sting allergies because they may cause adverse side effects such as itching, swelling, shortness of breath, or anaphylaxis.
Bee products like bee pollen may also interact negatively with blood thinners like warfarin. Pregnant or lactating women should also avoid bee pollen products because it is still unknown if they are completely safe for babies.
Where to get Organic Bee Pollen
The Health Ranger Store is here to help you boost your intake of nutrients and help you prepare for any emergency.
That’s why we’re proud to introduce Groovy Bee® Organic Bee Pollen.
Bee pollen is the sweet-tasting golden granules of flower pollen that are harvested by honey bees and packed into honeycomb cells inside the beehive. The honey bees then mix the pollen granules with nectar and cover them in a thin layer of honey.
This mixture is allowed to ferment for some time to become the nutrient-dense bee pollen we all know and love.
Groovy Bee® Organic Bee Pollen from the Health Ranger Store is packed with highly bioavailable nutrients and antioxidants that support optimal health and well-being. Our ultra-clean bee pollen is sourced from trusted beekeepers from pristine areas of Spain and contains no GMOs, fillers or chemical additives.
It is also non-China, certified Kosher and organic and meticulously lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology.
Groovy Bee® Organic Bee Pollen is sustainably sourced
Honey bees collect flower pollen for their nourishment. To keep the beehive thriving, beekeepers must be careful to harvest only a small percentage of the total bee pollen created.
This ensures that bees will still have more than enough pollen left to feed and nurture the entire hive.
While gathering flower pollen, honey bees also pollinate flowers and crops. This is a crucial function for the proliferation of fruits, nuts and a wide variety of food crops.
Buying organic, sustainably harvested bee pollen helps beekeepers remain in business and supports their expansion of honey bee hives and pollination operations.
Because of the widespread use of neonicotinoid insecticides, almost a third of the entire bee population in the U.S. has disappeared in the last decade. Commercial demand for bee pollen helps provide funding for the care and expansion of these pollinators, without which all mankind would starve.
Buying sustainably harvested bee pollen also helps make honeybee stewardship more abundant and profitable for the farmers who care for the hives. The more money they can earn from selling sustainably harvested bee pollen, the larger the bee populations they can support.
Rest assured that Groovy Bee® Organic Bee Pollen is sustainably harvested. They are also vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, laboratory-verified and China-free.
