I found a free PDF version of this book HERE.

Next up Bee Products– Bee products consist of raw honey, Bee Pollen, royal jelly and propolis. I’ll be breaking this up individually. FIRST UP – BEE POLLEN

I eat about one tablespoon of bee pollen every morning. I have a lemon water smoothie I drink each day, in which I add Manuka honey and bee pollen. Why? Well just have a look at some of the benefits:

1. Provides nearly all nutrients humans need to live.
   • It’s considered a complete protein!- more than any animal source
   • High in anti-oxidants
   • Contains all essential vitamins except vitamin B12
   • Contains many trace minerals required for human health
   • High in enzymes
2. Reduces wrinkles
3. Healthy skin
4. Relieves menopausal symptoms
5. Improves endurance
6. Healthy digestion
7. Protects the liver from toxins
8. Helps with weight loss
9. Relieves stress
10. Reduces fatigue

These are just 10 of the benefits. There are a few more, with other details in the video below:
