Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by bees from floral nectar and sugary secretions from other parts of plants.
It is composed of approximately 75 – 80% carbohydrates, 0.38% proteins, 0.1% acids from fruits and 0.2% minerals. In addition to its nutritional properties, honey provides sedative and emollient effects.
Propolis is a complex blend, formed by resinous and balsamic material collected from plants by Apis mellifera bees, in addition to saliva and enzymes added by the bees themselves.
Its chemical composition is mainly determined by phytogeographic characteristics, such as type of vegetation, season of the year and environmental conditions around the beehives. This makes it possible to obtain multiple types of propolis.
The use of propolis in folk medicine dates back to 300 BC as an extract, and it is still object of study by many researchers in various parts of the world. These studies have proven the propolis benefits, which include immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, healing, antifungal, antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities.
Propolis acts on the immune system balance through its immunomodulatory action, in addition to its other proven properties, as documented in the scientific literature: anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, healing, antifungal, antioxidant and hepatoprotective activity.
Pomegranate (Punica granatum) originates from the Middle East and Asia, and is a fruit whose cultivation and consumption dates back to ancient times. Vitamin C, B complex vitamins, zinc, copper, potassium, iron, magnesium, zinc and manganese are some of the substances found in its composition (according to the Brazilian Food Composition Table (TACO)).
Furthermore, it has antioxidants, the so-called polyphenols, which are believed to be the agents responsible for its antibacterial action. Pomegranate extract also has astringent and anti-inflammatory activities.
