What are bee pollen, propolis and royal jelly?
Bee pollen, propolis and royal jelly are three different bee products. Bee pollen comes from pollen grains gathered from flowers. Propolis is made from plant resins worked by bees, whilst royal jelly is secreted by young worker bees. Each ingredient should therefore be listed separately, with its exact quantity clearly stated.
1. Bee pollen
Bees gather pollen grains from flowers, moisten them with nectar and their own secretions, then carry them back to the hive as pollen pellets.
2. Bee pollen is not bee bread
Bee pollen is collected before it is stored in the comb. Perga, also known as bee bread, is pollen packed into the honeycomb cells, where it continues to mature naturally.
3. Royal jelly
A secretion produced by the glands of young worker bees. It feeds developing larvae and the queen throughout her life. It is not a type of honey.
4. Propolis
A blend of plant resins, wax and bee secretions. Raw propolis is extracted before it is used in a food supplement.
Is bee pollen the same as airborne pollen?
It begins as plant pollen, but bee pollen has been gathered and shaped by bees into pollen pellets. This does not make it allergen-free.
Is royal jelly a type of honey?
No. Honey is made from nectar or honeydew, whereas royal jelly is produced in the glands of young worker bees.
What does A.P.E.® mean?
A.P.E.® is Bee&You’s name for standardised Anatolian propolis extract produced using the brand’s own patented extraction method. One tablet provides 180 mg, a 2-tablet serving provides 360 mg, and the maximum daily intake of 4 tablets provides 720 mg.
How Bee&You sources and checks bee pollen, royal jelly and propolis
According to the brand’s latest figures, Bee&You works with 5,000 contracted beekeepers and 500,000 contracted hives. Its contract beekeeping model links the beekeeper, registered hives, raw-material harvest and processing at the production facility. The steps below summarise the process described publicly by Bee&You. The exact quantities in these tablets are taken from the manufacturer’s data for this specific product.
1. Contract beekeeping and hive standards
Before a partnership begins, Bee&You states that it checks apiary locations. Hives should sit away from industrial sites, waste, busy roads and pesticide-use areas, with clean water sources nearby. Contracted beekeepers agree not to feed bees sugar or sugar derivatives. Bee&You supplies collection equipment, purchases the agreed harvest and records the origin of materials from beekeeper to production facility.
2. Sourcing bee pollen
Bees collect pollen grains from flowers, moisten them with nectar and their own secretions, and return to the hive with pollen pellets. Bee&You describes its pollen as coming from mountainous regions of Anatolia and being processed without heat. The tablet label does not specify the exact stabilisation method used for the pollen in each batch, so we do not claim one here.
3. Harvesting royal jelly
Bee&You describes a controlled harvesting process using frames fitted with queen cells, into which young larvae are transferred. Worker bees fill the cells with royal jelly, which is then collected, mainly during spring and summer. The brand states an approximate yield of 20–25 g per hive each month. A peer-reviewed study affiliated with the Bee&You Propolis R&D Center analysed 176 royal-jelly samples for parameters including 10-HDA, moisture, pH and acidity; it did not test this finished product.
4. Anatolian propolis extract and patented extraction
Contracted beekeepers collect propolis made by bees from resins found on plant buds, leaves and stems, then send the packed raw material to the Bee&You facility. During processing, waxes and other insoluble matter are removed. Bee&You uses its own patented method and calls the resulting ingredient standardised Anatolian propolis extract A.P.E.®; the full technical parameters of the patented process are not publicly disclosed.
5. Standardising the Anatolian propolis extract
Bee&You states that its in-house R&D centre works with propolis sourced from different parts of Anatolia and monitors selected parameters, particularly phenolic compounds, flavonoids and antioxidant capacity. The aim is to limit natural batch-to-batch variation and maintain the monitored A.P.E.® parameters despite differences in location, season and botanical origin. The same parameters were examined in a peer-reviewed study of 23 Turkish propolis samples co-authored by researchers from the Bee&You Propolis R&D Center.
6. Laboratory testing at three stages
The brand describes checks at three points: when bee-derived materials arrive, during processing and on the finished product. Its documentation refers to purity testing, selected antioxidant and microbiological parameters, and compliance with food-safety requirements. The exact scope of testing may vary by ingredient, product and batch.
What sets this formula apart
Each tablet provides 180 mg of standardised Anatolian propolis extract A.P.E.®, 125 mg of bee pollen and 120 mg of royal jelly. A further 75 mg of carob completes the formula, bringing the four ingredients to 500 mg in total.

Who is behind the Bee&You brand
The BEE&YOU brand was founded by Asli Samanci, a scientist and entrepreneur who decided to take action after her five-year-old son became repeatedly ill due to a weakened immune system. Asli's expertise in food engineering led her to develop an innovative method of propolis extraction, which she later patented.
After the success of her son's recovery, she decided to make this natural path available to other families. She was supported on her journey by long-time colleague Taylan Samanci and Professor Dilek Boyacioglu, which led to the founding of a company that is now changing the lives of thousands of people around the world.
The expertise of the co-founders is also the basis of the brand's success. Taylan Samanci, a long-time expert in apiculture and bee products, brought to the project experience in managing national and international projects. Prof. Dr. Dilek Boyacioglu, a renowned food engineering expert, has brought her scientific expertise and passion for innovation to the company.

BEE&YOU aims to offer solutions that not only help improve health, but also inspire a more responsible approach to natural resources.
Through its products, the brand wants to change customers' lives for the better and be a reliable partner on their journey to health and well-being.
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.
