The bad weather is here, it’s cold, the pale sun has given way to a procession of clouds and icy rain. Spirits are low and fatigue is omnipresent. And there they are, the winter blues.
It is in these moments that we must take care of our diet, all naturopaths will tell you. We possess an important capital of health within us, but we must know how to make it flourish, and for that, there are some tricks we must know: royal jelly is one of them.
ROYAL JELLY, A CONCENTRATE OF MICRONUTRIENTS.
Royal jelly is used by bees to feed larvae in the first 3 days of their existence and to feed the queen throughout her life. The composition of royal jelly is exceptionally rich, it contains vitamins (especially from the B group, with the product being most concentrated in vitamin B5), trace elements, acetylcholine (which plays an important role in the central and peripheral nervous system), antibiotic factors, and a very important fatty acid, 10 HDA ((E)-10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid) which promotes vitality and slows down aging. In short, royal jelly is dynamite, an exceptional concentrate of health.
HOW TO USE ROYAL JELLY?
Royal jelly is usually presented in glass jars closed with a plastic lid and accompanied by a small plastic spoon. You won’t find a metal lid on a jar of royal jelly, as the product is acidic (pH 4) and attacks metal. However, there are very practical presentations in the form of a pump dispenser jar: one press releases 1 gram of royal jelly.
This “health concentrate” is taken in a dose of one gram per day, in the morning on an empty stomach. Ideally, keep the royal jelly under your tongue for about ten minutes.
A course of royal jelly lasts approximately one month. It can be renewed after a week’s break.
Royal jelly has a sour taste that some may find unpleasant, in which case, it is best to mix it with a little honey to soften the acidity of the product.
AND THE EFFECTS IN ALL THIS?
I can only speak from my personal experience. Personally, I find the effects undeniable: mood improves, one feels much fitter, the feeling of fatigue decreases, and all vitality is restored. A real pleasure. Personally, I discovered the product on the advice of a naturopath in Dordogne, and I must admit that the results are undeniable. The most striking thing for me is the effect on mood and stress resistance.
