    The beehive created by the honey bee is a sterile and sophisticated environment, where many superfood products are produced naturally.

    Facts About Bees

    Honey bees are the most incredible insect that inhabits the earth, honeybees have a profoundly positive effect the planet, and the bee hive is the source of bee pollen, honey, royal jelly, beeswax, propolis and many more natural compounds produced by these industrious bees. Much is still not fully understood about them, for instance how they accurately navigate and set up hives according to the strength of the earth magnetic field. 

    Honey bees are the workforce of nature, operating so perfectly they have been around for over one million years. Currently, honey bees are endangered, and if the honey bee were to become extinct, then humans would not survive more than four years. They are responsible for pollinating over 80% of organic life.

    Honeybees are the only insect to produce food that can be consumed by humans. Honey is considered a 'perfect food' and contains every element needed for the human body to function, including:

    • Vitamins
    • Minerals
    • Water
    • Enzymes
    • Pinocembrin

    Bee Hive Super Foods

    Bee hives are the source of amazing super foods that have tremendous benefits for those who choose to consume them. The honey bees that work tirelessly during the summer months to collect nectar and pollen are responsible for the wonders that a beehive produces. It is the pollen and nectar that the bees use to build their hive and is ultimately turned into the numerous products that bee hives yield.

    The main products that can be consumed as nutrition supplements or medication are:

    • Raw organic honey
    • Bee pollen
    • Bee propolis
    • Bee Bread
    • Royal jelly
    • Bees wax 

    Pinocembrin & Other Antioxidants

    Unprocessed raw organic honey contains an antioxidant called pinocembrin. Pinocembrin is unique to raw honey, and not found in another substance in known existence. Pinocembrin is acknowledged to help improve brain functionality. Medical research has ascertained that pinocembrin slows, and in some cases halts oxidation in the brain; this can reduce and in some cases end the devastating effects of some degenerative brain diseases such as Parkinson's and alzheimer's.

    The sterile environment created in the bee hive paves the way for many antioxidants to exist. The antioxidants found in raw organic honey work in the same way as other antioxidants; they fight build ups of free radicals that can overwhelm the bodies immune system.

    Lowering cholesterol

    Honey has zero cholesterol, on top of this studies have shown that consuming raw organic honey can reduce cholesterol. Raw honey fights the build-up of cholesterol in the body. Honey has highly concentrated levels of potassium, sodium, calcium and vitamin B complex; helping keep cholesterol levels in check, while the antioxidants found in raw honey prevent the cholesterol from being moved out of the blood and into the blood vessels where is clogs and narrows arteries.

    Great quality!

    This cacao is very good, it tastes like the best, and I've tried a few. It comes from a good source and is such good value, I can highly recommend it. I don't cook with it, as I don't want to destroy the polyphenols.

    Daily detox tea

    We have been buying this for years. We are big coffee in the morning people. However, we now enjoy this tea as a nice alternative. We haven't given up coffee but have definitely reduced how many morning coffees we have.

    Delicious and tastes very ‘clean’

    Definitely recommend, I mix it with my overnights oats almost every morning. Goes very well with fruit like blueberries or pretty much any other fruit to be honest

    Part of our everyday routine

    Bee pollen has become a part of our everyday routine. Since we started giving it to our son, in particular (who is slightly anaemic, which runs in my family), his health has completely changed. He is so much healthier now. I give it to all my children and take it myself.

    The kids love the taste so much, we have to keep it on the highest shelf otherwise they will fill a bowl with it!

    The latest batch that we bought is the most delicious yet. We're wondering if the bees were parking of some lavender. Whatever it is, it's amazing. It was out of stock for a little while and I had to keep checking the website as my children were asking for it.

    Organic Macca Capsules

    I was recommended Macca after having had a hysterectomy, I have been taking this supplement for almost 6 years. I feel it’s balanced my hormones, helped with women’s health, particularly in areas most required. I have 2 capsules per day & wouldn’t be without it.
    If you’re unsure, give it a try, I find The Natural Health Market helpful and reliable, thank you.

    Organic Gino berries

    I had been reading about the benefits of goji berries so decided to buy from NHM, delivery was quick, and compared to supermarket prices they are good value for money as you can buy different size bags to suit your needs. Resealable bag help to keep the berries fresh too ! I use them with my breakfast cereal and for snacking. I will purchase them again.
