Bee Propolis 500mg | Canadian Apis mellifera | Antioxidant | 120 Vcaps
Bee Propolis 500mg | Canadian Apis mellifera | Antioxidant | 120 Vcaps label
Bee Propolis 500mg | Canadian Apis mellifera | Antioxidant | 120 Vcaps

Sourced from Canadian Apis mellifera honey bees and delivered in a clean vegetable capsule, this single ingredient propolis formula provides meaningful antioxidant support  exactly as nature intended. 

Why Propolis?

Bees produce propolis to protect their hive from environmental threats sealing it with a resinous blend of plant resins, beeswax, and enzymes. Rich in flavonoids and phenolic acids, propolis has been used for centuries and is now recognized by Health Canada as a source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health.

Why Canadian Source?

The quality of propolis is inseparable from its origin. Canadian bees forage predominantly from poplar trees, producing a propolis with a consistent, well characterized composition high in pinocembrin, chrysin, quercetin, and CAPE. Sourced from regulated Canadian apiaries, every batch reflects the integrity of its environment.

A Formula Built on Simplicity

500 mg of pure bee propolis. One vegetable capsule. One ingredient. No fillers beyond the capsule shell. Gluten free, dairy free, and soy free formulated for those who value transparency in what they take every day.

Clinical Research

Antioxidant activity of propolis flavonoids and phenolic acids

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2002

This study evaluated the antioxidant capacity of propolis extracts with particular focus on their flavonoid and phenolic acid content. Pinocembrin, chrysin, galangin, and CAPE were identified as the primary contributors to free radical scavenging activity. The authors demonstrated that propolis flavonoids neutralize free radicals through hydrogen atom donation from their hydroxyl groups and chelation of pro-oxidant metal ions. The study concluded that propolis is a potent natural source of antioxidants, with activity directly correlated to its flavonoid and phenolic acid concentration.

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) and its role in antioxidant defense pathways

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2006

This review examined the biological activity of CAPE, the most extensively studied phenolic compound in propolis. CAPE was found to activate the Nrf2 transcription pathway, which upregulates the body's endogenous antioxidant enzymes including glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase. The authors noted that CAPE's antioxidant effects extend beyond direct free radical scavenging to include enhancement of the body's own protective mechanisms. The review concluded that CAPE represents one of the most bioactive naturally occurring phenolic compounds identified in bee products.

Composition and biological activity of Canadian temperate zone propolis

Phytochemistry, 2000

This study characterized the chemical composition of propolis collected from Canadian apiaries, identifying poplar derived resins as the predominant botanical source. The analysis confirmed high concentrations of pinocembrin, chrysin, and CAPE consistent with temperate zone propolis from poplar foraging honey bees. The authors noted that the botanical origin of propolis directly determines its flavonoid and phenolic acid profile, and that Canadian propolis represents a well characterized and consistent source of antioxidant compounds. The study supported the use of source identified propolis for standardized supplementation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is bee propolis?

Bee propolis is a resin like material produced by bees from plant resins, beeswax, and other natural substances. Bees use propolis within the hive, and it has a long history of use in natural health products.

What does Canadian Apis mellifera mean?

Apis mellifera is the scientific name for the Western honey bee. This product uses bee propolis sourced from Canadian Apis mellifera bees.

What are the benefits of bee propolis?

Bee propolis contains naturally occurring antioxidant compounds that can help protect cells against oxidative stress and free radical damage.

Who should avoid bee propolis supplements?

People who are allergic to bee products, pollen, honey, or related substances should consult a healthcare professional before using propolis. Individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medications should also seek professional advice before use.

Is bee propolis a good source of antioxidants?

Yes. Propolis naturally contains polyphenols, flavonoids, and other plant-derived compounds that contribute to its antioxidant activity.
