For this reason, many studies on the positive effects of propolis have been and are still being carried out.
The role of propolis in the hive is to protect and disinfect the inside and outside of the hive. The more than 300 different ingredients prevent the formation of bacteria, viruses and fungi in the beehive. It is also used to seal holes and cracks outside the hive. In this way, it acts as a natural protective shield for the hive.
Propolis is so important to bees because propolis is essential for survival in the hive. The bees cover their comb eyes with propolis before depositing their larvae and food in the comb eyes. Since propolis has antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects in the hive, the larvae and food remain unharmed for a long time.
Propolis , which has a fairly mixed chemical structure, has a wide range of uses and effects. Previous companies had already found out different areas of application with their possibilities at that time and found positive effects.
In ancient times, propolis was used to treat skin and stomach diseases or as a sedative. In ancient Egypt, one of the societies that first used propolis, propolis was used in mummification processes.
The Roman Empire, which had powerful armies, covered the wounds of its soldiers injured in war with creams containing propolis . They also provided their soldiers with a propolis tonic to boost fighting spirit.
After the ancient Greeks discovered the effects of propolis, they named it propolis. Propolis is made up of Pro (front) and Polis (city) and means something like defender of the city. How are propolis products used today?
