Bee milk, also known as royal jelly, is the secretion of the pharyngeal gland of young worker bees. It is the food given to the queen bee. Bee milk has high nutritional value and can enhance the body's immune system. It contains high levels of longevity factors, so it is often called the "elixir of longevity" and is used for anti-aging purposes.
[Historical Records]
1. Pope Pius XII of Rome was critically ill three times, and each time he recovered after taking bee milk.
2. Napoleon's high energy level was said to be related to his long-term consumption of royal jelly.
[Research Confirms]
Bee milk contains abundant protein, fat, and various sugars such as fructose, glucose, and sucrose. It also contains various amino acids such as arginine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, lysine, proline, and Q-alanine. Vitamin B1 is also abundant in bee milk.
Researchers initially observed that worker bees fed with honey could only survive for six months, while those fed with royal jelly could live for five years. This led to the inference that bee milk contains substances that promote longevity. It was later discovered that bee milk can stimulate the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and adrenal glands, promoting tissue oxygenation and blood circulation, rejuvenating declining life.
Actual studies have found that bee milk has a regenerative effect on cells. It mainly replaces aging cells with new cells, increases tissue respiration and oxygen consumption, and promotes metabolism. It can enhance the ability of mice to tolerate low air pressure and hypoxia as well as high temperature, resulting in prolonged survival time compared to the control group and reduced natural mortality rate.
[Real Case]
In the queen bee, people have discovered the special ability of bee milk to prolong life. In the kingdom of honeybees, the queen bee, known as the "ruler of the country," is indeed a long-lived individual. However, genetically, it is no different from the worker bees. The only difference is that it consumes royal jelly throughout its life, while the worker bees and other "subjects" do not have this privilege. Therefore, the lifespan of the queen bee is more than ten times longer than that of ordinary worker bees.
It has been proven that bee milk does have a good effect in preventing premature aging and resisting aging. Furthermore, bee milk also has many other effects, such as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, immune system enhancement, and blood sugar reduction. Especially for female friends, taking bee milk is the most suitable way to delay aging and compensate for the deficiency of female hormones.
