Bee's are magical creatures. And we know that honey is good for us  - but what about all of that other stuff we hear about, but might not know how to use, like: 
-Bee Propolis
-Bee Pollen, and
-Royal Jelly? 

What ARE those things, HOW do they benefit our health, and how can we use them?

In today's episode, we are talking with  someone who comes from a Beekeeping legacy. 
We're chatting with  Angela Ysseldyk of Dutchman's Gold, and she's breaking it all down for us. 

We cover a lot in this episode, from bee products, to sustainability and how you and I can support the bees, to the trials and hardhships of navigating change and running a small business. 

Here are some of the things we cover today:

  • Why are bees so special?
  • What's the difference between pasteurized vs unpasteurized honey? 
  • What is bee proplis, royal jelly and bee pollen?
  • How can honey or bee pollen help with seasonal allergies? 
  • Sustainability when it comes to bees and bee products - and what to look for
  • How you and I can help the bees on a daily basis 
  • Angela's Bee Friendly Promise
  • What Angela does on tough days running a small business
  • Angela's feelgood thing
