Chewable tablets with 99% bee bread (perga)
Bee&You chewable tablets with 99% bee bread (perga) and 1% Anatolian propolis A.P.E.® are a two-ingredient food supplement in a convenient chewable format that requires no water. Bee bread is the principal ingredient in the formula; propolis is included as a precisely declared supporting ingredient.
Each 500 mg tablet contains 495 mg of bee bread and 5 mg of Anatolian propolis A.P.E.®. Adults take 4 tablets daily, providing 1,980 mg of bee bread and 20 mg of propolis. Children aged 4–10 years take 2 tablets daily.
Bee bread is not the same as dried bee pollen. Bees pack pollen into honeycomb cells and combine it with nectar or honey and their own secretions. Within the hive, enzymes, microorganisms and natural biochemical changes transform it into bee bread with a distinct structure and chemical profile.
The manufacturer declares the formula to be free from added sugar, gluten, soya, GMOs, artificial preservatives, colours and flavourings. Bee bread naturally contains sugars. The pack contains 120 chewable tablets / 60 g and provides approximately 30 days’ use for an adult or 60 days for a child aged 4–10 years when taken as directed.
Who is this product best suited to?
It is intended for customers looking for bee bread as the dominant ingredient in a precisely measured chewable format without weighing granules or swallowing capsules. If your priority is a concentrated amount of propolis, a standalone propolis extract or spray will be a more suitable choice.
No specific health claims are authorised in the European Union for bee bread or propolis. We therefore describe this product through verifiable information about its composition, formation, origin and ingredient controls.

What is bee bread, or perga, and how is it made?
Bee bread is pollen stored and naturally transformed inside the honeycomb. Bees pack the pollen into cells and combine it with nectar or honey and their own secretions. Enzymatic, biochemical and microbial changes then take place within the hive, producing bee bread.
1. Collecting pollen
Bees collect pollen from flowers and carry it back to the hive in pollen baskets on their hind legs.
2. Storing it in the comb
They place the pollen in honeycomb cells, compact it and moisten it with nectar or honey and their own secretions.
3. Maturation and fermentation
Bee enzymes and microorganisms act within the comb as natural biochemical changes take place, distinguishing bee bread from freshly collected pollen pellets.
4. Food reserve for the colony
The finished bee bread remains in the comb as an important food reserve, particularly for young bees and larvae.
Why bee bread is not the same as bee pollen granules
Bee pollen is generally collected as bees return to the hive, before it is stored in the comb. Bee bread, by contrast, matures inside the cells. The difference lies in its place of formation, processing by the bees and resulting chemical profile.
Is bee bread automatically a probiotic?
Microorganisms are involved in the maturation of bee bread, but this does not mean that the finished supplement contains a guaranteed quantity of live cultures. These tablets are not presented as a probiotic supplement and the manufacturer does not declare specific strains or viable counts.
Is bee bread proven to be more bioavailable than bee pollen?
Laboratory research indicates that fermentation changes the chemical profile of pollen and may influence the release of certain compounds. Direct clinical comparisons of bee bread and bee pollen in humans remain limited, so these tablets cannot be described as universally better absorbed.
How Bee&You sources and controls its bee bread
For these tablets, it is important to distinguish between the formation of bee bread in the comb, Bee&You’s ingredient-sourcing system and the information declared on this product’s label. The brand describes bee bread as pollen matured in the comb and sources its bee-derived ingredients through contract beekeeping, with traceability from hive to finished product.
1. Bee bread forms inside the comb
Bee&You describes bee bread as flower pollen stored in the comb, where it matures naturally through the action of bee enzymes and the hive environment. It is not dried pollen simply relabelled as bee bread.
2. Contract beekeeping
Bee&You states that it works with dedicated contract beekeepers who produce for the brand in accordance with good beekeeping practices. This model provides greater oversight of the conditions in which ingredients are sourced.
3. Traceability from hive to product
The contract model enables the brand to document the origin of its bee-derived ingredients, the conditions under which they were obtained and their route into production. Bee&You describes this approach as traceability “from hive to table”.
4. Multi-stage quality control
The brand reports its own R&D and laboratory facilities, checks on incoming ingredients, processing and finished products, and external verification of selected parameters. These controls relate to process quality and safety, not to a health effect.
5. Precisely declared tablet composition
The label declares 99% bee bread and 1% Anatolian propolis A.P.E.®. Each 500 mg tablet contains 495 mg of bee bread and 5 mg of propolis.
What the manufacturer does not specify publicly
The publicly available information does not describe the precise mechanical method used to remove bee bread from the comb, the microbial profile of every batch or the detailed temperature regime used to produce these tablets. We therefore do not infer these details from general research or fill the gaps with assumptions.
Bee bread, bee pollen and propolis: a clear comparison
These ingredients all come from the hive, but they are not interchangeable. The essential points are how each one is formed and which is the principal ingredient in a particular product.
| Ingredient | How it is formed | Typical format | Role in this product |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bee bread / perga | Pollen stored and naturally transformed in honeycomb cells | Granules, powder or tablets | Main ingredient – 99% |
| Bee pollen | Pollen pellets collected before they are stored in the comb | Dried granules or powder | Not added as a separate ingredient |
| Propolis | Plant resins collected and processed by bees for use within the hive | Extracts, drops, sprays or tablets | Supporting ingredient – 1% |
How to compare bee bread products using the label
The words “bee bread” alone do not tell you whether it is the main ingredient, how much a daily serving provides or whether the ingredient matured naturally in the comb. When comparing products, look for the following information.
Proportion of bee bread in the formula
In a blend, check whether bee bread is the main ingredient or only a minor addition.Amount per tablet and daily serving
A declared amount in milligrams allows meaningful comparison between formats and pack sizes.Maturation in the comb
Distinguish bee bread that has matured naturally in the comb from a pollen product fermented only after removal from the hive.Origin and traceability
For a naturally variable ingredient, the relationship with beekeepers and the route from hive to finished product both matter.Purity and additional ingredients
Check for added sugar, flavourings, fillers, allergens and the complete ingredient list.Ingredient and production controls
Look for clear information on checks applied to incoming ingredients, processing and the finished product.What matters about these tablets
The tablets contain 99% bee bread, equivalent to 495 mg of bee bread per tablet. The remaining 1% is Anatolian propolis A.P.E.®. This is therefore not a concentrated propolis supplement, but a precisely measured bee bread product.

FAQs
What exactly are these tablets, and which ingredient is the main one?
Bee&You chewable tablets are a food supplement made with two ingredients. Bee bread, also known as perga, accounts for 99% of the formula and Anatolian propolis A.P.E.® accounts for 1%. The product is therefore designed primarily for customers seeking bee bread in a precisely measured chewable format, rather than a high dose of propolis.
What is bee bread, or perga?
Bee bread is pollen that bees have packed into honeycomb cells and combined with nectar, honey and their own secretions. It then matures in the comb and undergoes natural fermentation-related changes. Bee bread is an important food reserve for the colony.
How do bees make bee bread, step by step?
Bees first collect pollen from flowers and carry it back to the hive. They place it in honeycomb cells, compact it and moisten it with nectar, honey and their own secretions. Inside the cell, the pollen gradually matures into bee bread, which the colony uses as food.
What is the difference between bee bread and dried bee pollen?
Dried bee pollen is generally collected before the bees store it in the comb. Bee bread has already been processed by the bees and matured inside honeycomb cells. The two ingredients therefore differ in how they are formed, as well as in structure, flavour and chemical profile; they are not simply two names for the same material.
Does bee bread contain honey or nectar?
When making bee bread, bees moisten pollen with nectar or honey and their own secretions. Bee bread is therefore not isolated pure pollen. For the finished product, the declared ingredient list applies: these tablets contain 99% bee bread and 1% Anatolian propolis.
Is bee bread fermented bee pollen?
Yes. Bee bread is commonly described as pollen that has undergone natural maturation and fermentation-related changes in the comb. The hive environment, bee enzymes and microorganisms all contribute to the process. It is not industrially fermented pollen made outside the hive.
Are these tablets a probiotic, and do they contain live cultures?
They are not presented as a probiotic supplement. Although microbial and fermentation processes are involved in the formation of bee bread, the manufacturer does not declare specific strains or a guaranteed quantity of live microorganisms in the finished tablets. We therefore do not describe them as a source of probiotics.
Is bee bread easier to digest or absorb than bee pollen?
Laboratory studies investigate how maturation and fermentation change pollen’s chemical profile and the release of certain compounds. Direct clinical comparisons of bee bread and bee pollen in humans are limited. It is accurate to say that they are formed differently, but improved absorption cannot be promised for every product or every person.
How does Bee&You source its bee bread?
Bee&You states that its bee bread is made from flower pollen matured directly in the comb with the involvement of bee enzymes, and that it sources ingredients through contract beekeeping. The brand does not publicly describe the precise mechanical method used to remove bee bread from the comb, so we do not speculate.
How does Bee&You control the origin and quality of its bee bread?
The brand uses a contract-beekeeping model, improving traceability from hive to finished product. Bee&You reports checks on incoming ingredients, processing and finished products through its own R&D and laboratory system, alongside external verification of selected parameters.
Does harvesting bee bread remove food from the colony?
Bee bread is an important food reserve for the colony, so responsible harvesting must take account of colony strength and available stores. Bee&You describes contract beekeeping, good beekeeping practices and ingredient traceability, but does not publicly state a fixed percentage of bee bread left in every hive.
Does Bee&You contribute to published research on bee products?
Yes. Specialists associated with Bee&You and its R&D centre are named in peer-reviewed studies examining areas such as propolis standardisation, pollen and royal jelly. We did not find a published clinical study of these specific tablets containing 99% bee bread, so research on other ingredients or products is not presented as evidence of their health effects.
How much bee bread and propolis does one tablet contain, and how much is in the daily serving?
One tablet contains 495 mg of bee bread and 5 mg of Anatolian propolis A.P.E.®. Two tablets provide 990 mg of bee bread and 10 mg of propolis. The adult daily serving of four tablets contains 1,980 mg of bee bread and 20 mg of propolis.
Why do the tablets also contain 1% propolis?
Anatolian propolis A.P.E.® is a supporting ingredient in the formula. Each tablet contains 5 mg of propolis. Bee bread remains the principal ingredient; customers looking for concentrated propolis will be better served by standalone propolis drops, extracts or sprays.
How should the tablets be taken, and do they require water?
Chew the tablets thoroughly; no water is required. Adults take 2 tablets in the morning and 2 tablets in the evening. Children aged 4–10 years take 2 tablets daily. Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.
Should bee bread be taken with food or at a particular time of day?
The manufacturer divides the adult serving between morning and evening but does not require the tablets to be taken with food. Follow the current local-language label for your batch and choose a consistent routine that suits you.
How long does one pack last?
The pack contains 120 tablets. At 4 tablets daily, it provides an adult with approximately 30 days. At 2 tablets daily, it provides a child aged 4–10 years with approximately 60 days.
What do these bee bread tablets taste like?
The tablets are neither sweetened nor additionally flavoured. They have the naturally pronounced, gently tangy and earthy character of bee bread, complemented by propolis. As these are natural ingredients, flavour and aroma may vary slightly between batches.
Do the tablets contain added sugar, gluten, soya or GMOs?
The formula contains no added sugar and, according to the manufacturer, is also free from gluten, soya, GMOs, artificial preservatives, colours and flavourings. It does contain naturally occurring sugars present in bee bread.
Can children and teenagers take the tablets?
The product is not intended for children under 4 years. Children aged 4–10 years take 2 tablets daily, provided they can safely chew and swallow them. The available documentation does not clearly state a separate serving for those aged 11–17; follow the current local-language label or consult a doctor or pharmacist.
Is bee bread suitable for people with pollen allergy or an allergy to bee products?
Do not use the product if you have a known allergy or sensitivity to pollen, bee bread, propolis or other bee products. Fermentation does not guarantee that bee bread will not trigger an allergic reaction. People with pollen allergy, asthma or a previous reaction to bee products should consult a doctor or allergy specialist before use.
Are these tablets suitable for vegans or vegetarians?
They are not suitable for a vegan diet because they contain bee bread and propolis. Suitability for vegetarians depends on the individual’s approach to bee products. The tablets do not use a gelatine capsule.
Can the tablets be taken during pregnancy, while breastfeeding or alongside medication?
During pregnancy or breastfeeding, when taking regular medication, if you have a medical condition or are under medical care, consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. This is particularly important if you have known allergies or combine several bee products.
Can bee bread be combined with bee pollen, honey or propolis?
These are distinct bee products, but combining them may increase the total amount of pollen- and propolis-derived ingredients consumed. Check the directions for every product and seek professional advice if you have allergies, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or take medication.
How should the tablets be stored, and do they need refrigeration?
Store at room temperature in the original, tightly closed container, away from direct sunlight, moisture and excessive heat. Refrigeration is not required unless the label for your batch states otherwise. Keep out of reach of children.
Do these tablets support immunity or digestion?
This product cannot be marketed in the European Union as supporting immunity or digestion, because no corresponding specific health claims are authorised for bee bread or propolis. We therefore provide precise information about composition, origin and processing rather than unauthorised promises of effects.
How can you assess the quality of bee bread before buying?
Look for the actual proportion of bee bread, the amount per daily serving, confirmation that it matured in the comb, information on origin, traceability and testing, and a complete list of added sugar, flavourings or fillers. In these tablets, bee bread accounts for 99% of the formula and its amount is precisely declared.

What is propolis and what are its benefits
Propolis is a natural resinous substance that bees collect from the buds, leaves and stems of plants. Due to its sticky consistency and antimicrobial properties, they use it to protect their hive from pathogens.
The bees cover the walls of the hive with a layer of propolis, sterilizing the cells of the honeycomb and creating an ideal environment for the queen to lay her eggs.
Propolis also serves as a natural preservative - it protects honey, royal jelly and pollen from microorganisms in the hive.
The name "propolis" comes from Greek and means "before the city", symbolizing its role as the first line of defense of the bee colony.
Propolis is a rich source of bioactive substances, especially flavonoids, phenolic acids and terpenes, which have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects.
These compounds can help fight free radicals, support the immune system and protect the body from infections. Studies show that propolis can be effective in treating fungal infections such as athlete's foot, for example, and its regular use can contribute to respiratory, skin and oral health.
However, in order for the human body to fully utilize its potential, it is necessary to extract the raw propolis using alcohol or other solvents, which increases its bioavailability and allows the release of the active ingredients.
BEE&YOU certification and quality
BEE&YOU places great emphasis on the quality and authenticity of its products, as evidenced by a strict four-stage inspection system. First, a preliminary analysis of raw material samples from contract beekeepers is carried out to ensure that they meet the required standards. The raw materials are then subjected to further testing in laboratories.
After processing on the production line, the semi-finished products are analysed before filling. Finished products, such as tablets, drops, sprays, syrups and cosmetic products, then undergo rigorous testing in laboratories right in our 10,700 m² production hall.
Finally, the products are independently tested by accredited laboratories and universities, ensuring their high quality. In the latest audit by the independent German organisation DQS CFS GmbH, the brand scored an impressive 98.06 points out of 100 in the IFS Food assessment and was awarded the prestigious BRC AA+ certificate.
BEE&YOU products are certified to local and international standards including GMP, BRC, IFS, SEDEX, ISO 9000, ISO 22000, ISO 14001, Kosher, Cosmos and Organic. These certifications cover food, dietary supplements and cosmetics. Thanks to these standards and rigorous quality management, the brand guarantees that each product not only delivers natural values, but also meets the highest safety and quality requirements.

The natural wealth of bee products and the uniqueness of Anatolian propolis
Ingredients used by BEE&YOU
BEE&YOU products are based on natural bee products that are known for their extraordinary health benefits.
Key ingredients include propolis, royal jelly, honey and pollen. Propolis is rich in phenolic compounds and flavonoids that support the immune system and have antioxidant and antimicrobial effects.
Royal jelly contains high amounts of protein, vitamins and essential amino acids, making it a nutritional treasure.
Apart from its delicious taste, honey brings energy to the body, supports digestion and has antibacterial properties.
Pollen is another valuable ingredient because it contains a wide range of vitamins, minerals and enzymes that contribute to overall health.
All products are fully traceable from the hive to the final packaging, guaranteeing not only high quality but also the purity and safety of the raw materials.
In addition, the use of patented extraction technology ensures that all the active ingredients from these natural ingredients are preserved to the best possible extent, bringing maximum health benefits to the consumer.
Why Anatolian propolis is unique
Anatolian propolis comes from the unspoiled mountain regions of Anatolia, which is one of the richest regions in the world with more than 12,000 species of plants.
Thanks to patented extraction technology, this propolis has an extremely high antioxidant content - up to 80 times more than pomegranate juice - and contains at least 15 different phenolic and flavonoid compounds such as caffeic acid, quercetin and resveratrol.
Regular consumption of this propolis extract at the recommended daily dose can boost immunity, fight oxidative stress and contribute to the health of the whole body.
Moreover, Anatolian propolis is collected from one of the cleanest and least polluted environments on Earth, ensuring its high quality and purity.
The unique composition of this propolis is the result of the biodiversity of the region, where bees obtain raw materials from a wide range of plants rich in active substances, which gives it exceptional nutritional and therapeutic properties.
