Royal Jelly
Royal Jelly is secreted by worker bees to feed developing larvae and the queen bee. The queen bee will consume nothing but royal jelly during her whole life, which is about 50 times longer than the life of an average bee. Much is yet to be understood about this mysterious substance and its health benefits for both bees and humans.

Quality Measured
A fatty acid called 10-HDA, has been identified to establish a universal standard for quality of royal jelly. In nature, this fatty acid occurs at a percentage of between 1.5% and 2.2%. Fresh Royal jelly that has a 10-HDA percentage of this range is considered good to excellent quality. Any reputable producer or distributor of royal jelly should be able to provide a Certificate of Analysis from an independent laboratory to verify the content. All of our royal jelly meets this high standard for quality control so you can be assured you are getting the purest royal jelly possible.
