Propolis
Propolis is a remarkable natural medicine produced by honeybees. It's made from plant and tree resins, combined with wax, pollen and essential oils. Bees use propolis to line their hives and as a building material. Propolis is very strong, and sticky!
Because of the variety of plants and trees the bees harvest resins from, propolis contains a wide range of naturally occuring chemicals called flavonoids and polyphenols. These chemicals are responsible for the wide range of medicinal properties which propolis is known to have, such as:
- Antibacterial
- Anti-inflammatory
- Anti-fungal
- Antiviral
- Antioxidant
- Immunomodulation
Nature's Laboratory has spent 20 years exploring the amazing properties of propolis, and producing a range of propolis health products.
Propolis is known to help with skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, which is why we developed our Soothing Skin Cream which includes propolis.
