One of my goals for myself and for my family this year is to keep us all feeling our best and to be the healthiest that we can be. Like so many, we are busy and no one wants to waste time being sick.
So one thing I have incorporated into our daily routine over the last couple of months is to use Propolis Throat Spray from Beekeepers Naturals to help support our immune system. Let me just tell you, it has made a huge difference in the way we feel!
What is Bee Propolis?
First let me start off my explaining what bee propolis actually is because many people confuse propolis with pollen. Propolis is actually a resin-like material that is made by bees from the buds of polar and cone-bearing trees. Propolis is the defender of hives and bees use it to line their walls and keep germs out.
So Why Should We Use it?
Bee propolis is an amazing ingredient that supports your immune system. It contains antioxidants, vitamin C, zinc, iron, B vitamins, and over 300 other beneficial compounds. Not only can it help our immune systems, but it also can soothe scratchy throats, combat free radical damage in the body, and feed the bacteria in our gut. It’s also been studied to be anti-microbial and anti-fungal to help fight germs.
Scientists consider bee propolis to be one of the most effective ways to stimulate the immune system and best of all, it is all natural. Not only is going to help keep you from getting sick, it is also going to help soothe your scratchy, irritated throat.
My Experience With It
I happened to come across this during a trip to Target, and since my little ones tend to bring home every germ in their school, I decided to try it. And guess what, this has become one of my all-time favorite immune boosting remedies because it is so convenient to use, tastes great, and best of all, it is effective!
It has easily become part of our morning routine. My boys and I just do our daily throat sprays every morning when we take our multi-vitamins and have breakfast. I also keep one in my bag so I have it on me while we are traveling. I also have to tell you that we haven’t gotten sick since we started using it, even though so many things are going around right now. This will be especially important for us come spring when scratchy throats become notorious.
