Propolis is the hive’s own protective resin. Honey bees collect sticky resin from plant buds and bark, blend it with beeswax and their own enzymes, and use it to seal cracks and keep the hive clean. Beekeepers have gathered it for thousands of years, and it remains a household staple in Brazil today.
Green propolis exists only in Brazil. Its colour and aroma come from one plant — Baccharis dracunculifolia, the “alecrim-do-campo” shrub that grows wild in the highlands of south-east Brazil (São Paulo and Minas Gerais). Bees that forage on it produce a resin with a characteristic green tint and a naturally occurring compound called Artepillin-C, which is found in Brazilian green propolis and nowhere else.
Rich in natural plant compounds. Propolis is a complex mixture of flavonoids, phenolic acids and essential oils — the same families of antioxidant compounds found in green tea and dark berries. Many people take propolis every day as part of their routine to support the body’s natural defenses.*
