HARVESTING OF ROYAL JELLY
Royal Jelly is a milky-white cream & strongly acid, and rich in protein, sugars, vitamins, RNA, DNA, and fatty acids. It is possibly the most valuable product of the hive and numerous, fabulous claims have been made about it. It is the food of queen bee larvae and, by feeding a worker bee larva this substance, she will develop into a Queen rather than a worker. She will be a female bee that can mate a totally different being from the Worker, despite the fact that they start out exactly the same.
For humans, Royal Jelly can be used as a food Supplement or as an addition to cosmetics to enhance their curative properties. There are numerous stories about the powers of Royal Jelly and the part it can play in human health, but most are anecdotal. In one of Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected, a character turns his baby son into a bee (or at least a black-and-yellow striped, hairy
baby) by feeding him exclusively on royal jelly. Amazing stuff! The medicinal and curative properties of the substance lack much clinical research, but what we do know is that it contains as bellow.
