A single tablespoon of bee pollen contains up to 1.5 grams of protein, 2 milligrams of iron, and a multitude of vitamins and minerals including vitamin C, vitamin B12, and folic acid. The rich antioxidant properties found in bee pollen make it an effective tool for protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals.

This Bee Pollen is collected from bees in BC and Alberta.
