Nutrition Tip

If you’re looking for a health supportive sweet treat, look no further than propolis, Propolis  is not only delicious, it is also a miraculous superfood. Propolis has been used for centuries as a form of medicine due to its antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti -tumour, and anti-ulcer properties. Traditionally propolis has been used to treat wounds and used as a remedy for a variety of ailments like acne, osteoporosis, allergies, viruses, burns, infections, inflammatory disease, dental pain, genital herpes, and even cancer.

Remember to never heat propolis or honey for that matter. This beautiful superfood loses its superpowers when heated and should always be kept raw. Enjoy!
