Pollen is a set of tiny granules produced by flowers for their reproduction. The small pollen grains cling to the bees’ feet and hair, and fall from flower to flower as they visit. When they return to the hives, the bees pass through pollen traps, placed by the beekeepers, to collect the granules that come loose. In the beekeepers’ house, the pollen is naturally dried until it takes the form of the small yellowish grains we know.

This product of flowers and bees is considered one of the most complete super foods and an authentic booster of general well-being. On average, bee pollen is approximately 35% protein, 40% natural sugars, 5% fat, 4% to 10% water and 5% to 15% other substances (such as vitamins, minerals and antioxidants).

Benefits

It has an endless list of benefits, among them it is indicated for tiredness, fatigue, blood thinning, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant. Pollen contains all essential amino acids. In addition, it is rich in minerals, fiber, protein, plant hormones and vitamins – A, C, E, D and B complex. It is not considered safe for pregnant women or during breastfeeding, nor in cases of taking anticoagulant medication.

Usage suggestions

We can add it to yogurts, soups, fruit and/or vegetable smoothies, oatmeal or cereal. Add the beans in teas or infusions, in fruit or vegetable smoothies and in bread or cake recipes (after being reduced to powder). The recommended daily dose is one tablespoon of bee pollen (20g).

Orders are normally dispatched by courier (DPD) and can be sent to any location in mainland Portugal or practically all countries within the European Community (see list). Unfortunately, due to very strict customs restrictions, we are no longer able to ship orders to the UK. This situation may change in the future, depending on the evolution of extra-community agreements. If you prefer, you can choose a collection point for your order. If the delivery is made in Albufeira, we will deliver it by hand free of charge.

An important point to highlight is the need to have the complete address and, above all, leave a contact telephone number for the country where the order is being sent. For example, if the shipping address is in France, the contact must be a telephone with a French code, not Portuguese, because the courier will only call a number in the country if he needs more information about the delivery location.

We only use cardboard boxes specially designed for postal shipping. Products are packaged and protected in the best possible way, using only recycled or recyclable material. The filling of the box is made from shreds of colored paper, which gives it a cheerful and appealing appearance. We believe, however, that the important thing is the quality of the content and not sophisticated packaging, which is often discarded immediately and ends up being another environmental pollutant. At the end of the year, there is the option of choosing a box with Christmas effects, but it is still made of recyclable cardboard.
