What’s Special About Bee Pollen? Bee pollen has been studied in several species, for benefits as diverse as improved egg production in chickens and enhanced weight gain in rats. In Europe, research has investigated improvements in human prostate conditions, upper chest respiratory infections, poor appetite and endocrine imbalances. For many years human athletes competing in weight lifting, professional team sports and Olympic events have attributed increased stamina and energy reserves to the use of bee pollen. What Can Bee Pollen Do For Horses? The primary ingredient of bee pollen, the pollen of many species of flowers, is a nutritious part of the horse's natural diet. Bee pollen contains a rich array of carotenoids, the family of natural plant antioxidants that includes beta carotene. These are accompanied by low levels of a broad range of trace and ultra trace minerals, plus enzymes and coenzymes. Horses foraging on open range land benefit from these nutrients in wildflower pollen, but the domesticated horse feeding on hay and grain is deprived of this "Gift of Nature." Many trainers around the country report increased vitality, better overall health, and improved earnings from adding bee pollen to the feed. |
