What Is Royal Jelly?

Royal jelly is a secretion produced by worker honeybees (Apis mellifera). It is the exclusive food of the queen bee throughout her life and is fed to all bee larvae for the first three days after hatching. The queen bee is genetically identical to worker bees but develops differently because she is fed royal jelly exclusively throughout her development and adult life.

Royal jelly is a creamy white substance composed of water (approximately 60 to 70%), proteins (approximately 12 to 15%), sugars (approximately 10 to 16%), fats (approximately 3 to 6%), and trace amounts of vitamins and minerals. Its composition is complex and not fully characterized.

Royal jelly is classified as a bee product. People with allergies to bee products (including honey and royal jelly), or with a history of allergies, asthma, atopy, or dermatitis, must not use this product. See the full safety information below.

Active Compounds in Royal Jelly

10-HDA (10-Hydroxy-2-decenoic acid): A medium-chain fatty acid found almost exclusively in royal jelly. Not found in significant amounts in honey, propolis, or other bee products. Used as a quality and authenticity marker: the 10-HDA content of a royal jelly product verifies that the product contains genuine royal jelly and indicates its potency. Higher 10-HDA content generally indicates higher quality royal jelly. Present in this formula as a natural constituent of the Royal Jelly 1,000mg dose.

Major Royal Jelly Proteins (MRJPs): A family of nine proteins (MRJP1 through MRJP9) that make up the majority of the protein content of royal jelly. MRJP1, also called royalactin or apalbumin 1, is the most abundant and is the protein responsible for triggering queen bee development in bee larvae.

Amino acids: Royal jelly contains all essential amino acids. The most abundant free amino acid is proline, which makes up a large proportion of the free amino acid content. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are involved in virtually every process in the body.

Peptides: Royal jelly contains antimicrobial peptides unique to royal jelly, including jelleines and royalisin (also called defensin-1). These are short protein fragments distinct from the full MRJP proteins.

Fatty acids: Royal jelly contains a distinctive profile of medium-chain hydroxy fatty acids not commonly found in other foods. The most notable is 10-HDA. Other fatty acids include sebacic acid (decanedioic acid) and 2-decenedioic acid. These unusual fatty acids are largely responsible for the distinctive chemical profile of royal jelly.
