Royal jelly is a gelatinous food created by worker bees for nourishing the queen bee. Whereas worker bees are infertile and have a life span of only 6 weeks, the queen lives for 4-6 years and lays approximately 2000 eggs per day!

Royal jelly contains the B-complex vitamins, enzymes, vitamins A, C, D and E, minerals and 18 amino acids, as well as DNA and RNA. It boosts collagen production, which can help to speed healing of wounds and maintain healthy, youthful looking skin and hair. Athletes have found that when taking royal jelly, they have increased stamina, better concentration and faster recovery time, perhaps due to its anti-inflammatory activity. A natural fertility and libido-booster, many people have also reported improvement in cases of fatigue and depression. As little as 50-100mg of royal jelly per day was clinically shown to decrease total serum cholesterol levels by 14% in humans with atherosclerosis.

Flora's Royal Jelly comes from hives that are not fed antibiotics. It is freeze-dried to lock in its nutritional value and preserve enzymes. Each 50mg capsule is standardized to contain no less than 2.5mg of 10-HDA, one of the active ingredients in royal jelly.
