Interesting Fact

Propolis is often referred to as “bee glue” because of its thick, sticky consistency, which helps seal the hive. But beyond its structural role, it has remarkable antibacterial, anti-fungal, and antiviral properties. In fact, studies have shown that propolis can help fight infections and promote tissue healing. Because of these beneficial qualities, it is used in various health and skincare products. Simply Bee incorporates propolis into their offerings, harnessing its powerful, natural healing properties to provide soothing and restorative benefits for the skin. Whether in creams, balms, or other products, propolis contributes to maintaining skin health by helping to reduce inflammation, soothe irritation, and support the skin’s natural healing process.

By combining the goodness of propolis with other pure, natural ingredients, Simply Bee delivers high-quality products that protect, nourish, and restore the skin.

Origin

Propolis is a natural resin that bees collect from the buds of trees, sap, and various plants. Once gathered, bees mix it with their saliva and beeswax, creating the sticky substance that they use to protect their hive. This resin is used to seal gaps, reinforce the hive structure, and protect the colony from harmful microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, and fungi. By keeping their hive sterile and well-guarded, bees ensure the health of the colony and the success of their hive.

The process of propolis production begins with worker bees gathering the resin from plant sources. They then return to the hive and mix the resin with their saliva, creating a sticky paste. This paste is further combined with beeswax and used to coat the hive, filling cracks and gaps in the structure. It also acts as a natural barrier, preventing disease and external threats from entering the hive. The bees’ use of propolis to preserve their home highlights its impressive protective properties.
