Bee Pollen Capsules with 1500 mg per Daily Dose
Honeybees collect pollen from flowers and press it together with nectar and enzymes into small granules. This mixture is called bee pollen. It naturally contains amino acids, fatty acids, polyphenols, and more. With this product from LUTO Supplements, you get that natural mixture in a convenient capsule form. Three capsules per day provide a total of 1500 mg of bee pollen. Convenient for those who want to take pollen without the grainy texture or the sweet, floral taste of loose pollen.
What exactly is in bee pollen
Bee pollen is not a single substance, but a natural mixture. Which substances exactly? That depends on the plants from which the bees collected their pollen. Nevertheless, certain substances almost always recur, such as free amino acids and polyphenols. These polyphenols are plant substances from the flavonoid family. What many people do not know: bee pollen also contains enzymes that the bees themselves add during collection. Because of this, it differs substantially from the pollen you would pick from a flower.
Finely ground pollen
Each pollen granule has a tough outer wall, made up of a substance called sporopollenin. In nature, this wall protects the pollen from UV light and dehydration. LUTO Supplements finely grinds the pollen before it goes into the capsule. A capsule with bee pollen is therefore not the same as a spoonful of whole granules. The difference lies in that finer particle size.
1500 mg per day
These capsules provide 1500 mg of bee pollen per daily dose of three capsules. Bee pollen is used here as a dietary supplement. The capsules also contain a plant-based HPMC shell, microcrystalline cellulose as a filler, and plant-based magnesium stearate as an anti-caking agent. In short: a short list of ingredients without artificial colors or flavorings.
Difference between loose bee pollen and capsules
Loose bee pollen is usually bought as granules. You sprinkle them over yogurt or mix them into a smoothie. Tasty, but the taste is not for everyone. Some people find it floral and sweet, others rather bitter. Bee pollen in capsules completely bypasses that taste issue. You swallow them with a glass of water and you taste nothing. Another advantage of capsules is the consistent dosage. With loose granules, you estimate the amount by eye. With three capsules, you know exactly that you are getting 1500 mg of bee pollen. The same amount every day, without a scale.
This product from LUTO Supplements offers bee pollen in an accessible form. Ninety capsules in the jar, good for thirty days at the recommended daily dose. The composition has been deliberately kept simple. Pollen, a capsule shell, and two standard excipients. Nothing more is in it, and that is exactly the point.
