In addition to honey, bees make a waxy substance called propolis, a natural product derived from plant resins. There are many studies supporting propolis’ health benefits, including antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antioxidant, and antitumor properties. It’s been used by humans to maintain health since ancient times, and it remains one of our go-to supplements any time we feel that first tickle of a cold. This bee propolis comes from a small family farm with ecologically mindful farming practices in the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York.
