    Clarifications


    1) " Propolis" -- As it applies to Propolis Extract

    Propolis is a reddish brown wax-like resinous substance collected by bees from treebuds and used as a cement and to seal cracks or open spaces in the hive. Honeybeeswill use Ptopolis to attempt to seal any gap inside the hive that is smaller than the bee space, approximately 6.3 mm.

    Traditionally, beekeepers assumed that bees sealed the cracks and joints of the beehive with ropolis to prevent drafts duringthe wintertime. More recent research suggests that bees not only survive, but thrive with increased ventilation during the winterin most temperate regions of the world. Proplois is now thought to:

    1. reinforce the structural stability of the hive
    2. reduce vibration
    3. make the hive more defensible by sealing alternate entrances

    Bees will also sometimes use Propols to keep the hive hygenic. Bees normally carry waste (dead larva, etc.) out of and awayfrom the hive. However, if a mouse chews its way into the hive for a winter nest and dies, the bees won't be able to move it outthrough the hive entrance. They have instead been known to seal the carcass in Propoles , effectively mummifying the mouse.

    Propolis is marketed by health food stores as a traditionalmedicine, and for its claimed beneficial effect on human health. However, research is inconsistent on its efficacy. Claimshave been made for its use in treating allergy ; it may stimulate the immune system, but some warn that it should not be taken if the user is likely tohave severe allergic reaction to bees.

    In addition, Prppolis is used by music instrument makers to better show the wood grain.
