What is pollen allergy?

Qu'est ce que l'allergie au pollen ?

Pollen allergy and bee pollen – An essential difference

Beautiful days often bring more than just sun and warmth: for many people, they also mark the start of the pollen allergy season. Every year, grasses and trees release their pollens into the air, causing sneezing, itching, and red eyes.

Did you know that not all pollens are harmful? 

While the pollen responsible for allergies can cause discomfort, there is a very special pollen, bee pollen, which offers exceptional health benefits. This vitality concentrate harvested by bees has nothing to do with the pollen that causes irritation.

What is pollen allergy and why bee pollen is beneficial ?

Pollen allergy is an immune system reaction to pollen from trees or grasses. When pollen particles come into contact with mucous membranes, the body sees them as a threat and produces chemicals, such as histamine, to fight them. This causes the characteristic symptoms: sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and in some cases, breathing difficulties.

Bee pollen, on the other hand, is harvested by bees mainly from nectar-producing flowers. This pollen does not have the same effect as that from allergenic plants. It is rich in nutrients, proteins, amino acids, vitamins (such as vitamin C and B vitamins), as well as in antioxidants. Consumed as a dietary supplement, it can have beneficial effects on health, such as strengthening the immune system, improving natural energy, and promoting healthy skin.

Thus, although pollen can be an enemy for some people, bee pollen is a valuable ally for those looking to naturally boost their vitality.

The benefits of bee pollen: a healthy and nutritious alternative

Bee pollen is a true nutrient concentrate. It is: 

- Rich in proteins : Bee pollen is an excellent source of plant proteins. It contains many essential amino acids, making it a perfect dietary supplement for vegetarians and vegans.

- A supply of vitamins and minerals : This pollen is a natural source of vitamin C, B vitamins, calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc, which help support the immune system, improve blood circulation, and strengthen bones.

- Antioxidants : Pollen is also rich in flavonoids and antioxidants, which help neutralize free radicals and protect cells from premature aging.

- Natural energy : It is known for its revitalizing effect, offering a lasting energy boost without the side effects of stimulants like caffeine. It is an excellent choice to start the day or to give yourself a pick-me-up in the afternoon.

- Improvement of digestion : Bee pollen can also be beneficial for digestion, helping to maintain intestinal balance thanks to its richness in enzymes and fibers.

Bee pollen: a versatile product to include in your daily routine

Incorporating bee pollen into your diet is simple, and the possibilities are numerous:

- Smoothies and juices : Add a spoonful to your morning smoothie for a boost of vitamins and minerals.

- Yogurts and cereals : Sprinkle it on your yogurts or cereals for an additional nutritional boost.

- Pastries : Add it to your cake or cookie recipes for a nutritional aspect and a unique taste.

- Infusions : You can also incorporate it into your infusions or teas for an extra energy boost.

Bee pollen or pollen allergy: What is the connection?

While pollen allergy can cause unpleasant symptoms, it is important to note that bee pollen is harvested differently. Unlike allergenic pollen that comes from trees and grasses, bee pollen comes from nectar-producing flowers, mainly those beneficial for human consumption and not responsible for common allergies.

That said, some allergic individuals may be sensitive to certain types of pollen, including bee pollen. It is therefore recommended to consult a doctor before introducing bee pollen into your diet, especially if you are already sensitive to allergens in general.

But for most people, bee pollen is safe and can be a natural and delicious source of nutrients.

Fresh Miel Factory pollen: Preserve all the freshness and benefits of pollen

The frozen pollen is a preservation method that allows you to keep all the nutritional benefits of fresh pollen while extending its shelf life. Unlike dried pollen, which loses some of its nutrients during the dehydration process, frozen pollen is kept in its natural state, with its active enzymes, its proteins, its vitamins, and its minerals intact.

Our fresh pollen was harvested in the Chambran forest in the commune of Saint Antoine l’Abbaye at the borders of Isère, Drôme, at the gates of Vercors. It is composed of a mix of bramble and poppy with a dominance of chestnut. 

Its flavor is sweet and delicious with a slightly bitter note at the end of the mouth caused by the poppy, which reveals its full personality.  

To use it, simply take it out of the freezer and consume it as is or add it to your favorite recipes. This way, you can enjoy a natural product rich in energy, in antioxidants and in essential amino acids, without compromising on quality.

It can be consumed at any time of the day, ideally in the morning to boost energy.
