What is Royal Jelly?

May 7, 2024

Royal Jelly is a vital nutrient produced naturally by bees. Often referred to as ‘bee’s milk,’ Royal Jelly is a creamy, nutrient-rich food produced by worker bees. It’s essential for developing bees and has some pretty impressive benefits for humans too. Let’s explore the world of Royal Jelly and why it’s so special.

Royal Jelly in the Hive

Royal Jelly is crucial in a beehive’s society. Every bee larva is fed Royal Jelly for the first few days of life, giving them a super start with its rich nutrients. What’s unique, though, is the queen bee. She eats Royal Jelly her entire life, which helps her grow bigger (2 to 3 times bigger than a worker bee), live longer (up to 40 times longer than a worker bee), and lay thousands of eggs daily.

Royal Jelly for Humans

Humans have found that Royal Jelly can be quite beneficial too. Here’s why many people include it in their health regimen:

May Suppress Allergic Reactions: According to a study published on Europe PMC₁, Royal Jelly can help with the restoration of macrophage function and improve T cell responses, reducing allergic reactions
May Reduce Inflammation: For those with conditions like arthritis, Royal Jelly has been shown to help ease the pain according to a study published on MDPI²
May Improve Skin Health: Royal Jelly increases collagen production helping your skin look smoother and younger according to this study on the National Library of Medicine₃
May Improve Mental Health: There’s evidence that Royal Jelly improves erythropoiesis, glucose tolerance and mental health according to this study sourced on the National Library of Medicine₄
May Support Women’s Health: It’s known to ease menopausal symptoms, improving overall well-being as per this study found on Science Direct⁵
