Foraging. Worker bees visit flowers and collect nectar. The bee's mouthparts form a type of tube which can probe into flowers to reach the nectaries. The nectar is sucked up, stored temporarily in the gut, taken back to the hive and passed to the 'house' bees. These bees process the nectar to form honey. They do this by repeatedly swallowing it, mixing it with enzymes and regurgitating it. Eventually it is stored in the cells of the honeycomb.
The workers also collect pollen from the flowers. Their bodies become dusted with pollen from ripe stamens when they visit the flower. The bee uses its legs to brush the pollen from its body, and compacts it into a pollen sac on each hind leg. On returning to the hive the pollen sacs are released and stored in the cells. The honey supplies the carbohydrate and the pollen provides the protein in the bees' diet. The larvae are fed on a mixture of honey and pollen.
Honey Pollen
Communication. When a worker who has found a good source of nectar returns to the hive, she executes a 'dance' on the vertical surface of the comb. The dance takes the form of a flattened figure 8. The angle between the vertical and the flattened, central part of the figure 8 represents the angle between the hive, the sun and the nectar source. If the dancing bee waggles her abdomen during this section of the dance it indicates that the nectar source is some distance away. In the darkness of the hive, the workers follow the dancing bee round and learn the direction and distance of the food source. The dancing bee also regurgitates some of the nectar to offer the followers who, therefore, learn the taste of it. The scent from the flower might also help identify its source.

The fruits of the hive, which are all included in Bee Natural (pollen, royal jelly, propolis, and honey) are claimed by modern medical sources to contribute to better health in a variety of ways. BEE POLLEN: often referred to as nature's most complete food. Human consumption of bee pollen is praised in the Bible, other religious books, and ancient Chinese and Egyptian texts. It has long been prescribed by traditional health practitioners-including the fathers of Western medicine Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, and Pythagoras-for its healing properties. It is a favorite substance among many world class athletes and those interested in sustaining and enhancing quality performance. This substance contains a wide spectrum of vitamins, hormones, carbohydrates, 22 amino acids, 27 mineral salts, thousands of enzymes and coenzymes, and more. It is also one of the few vegetable sources rich in vitamin B12. Bee pollen also contains the bioflavonoid rutin. ROYAL JELLY: a famed substance produced by worker bees that when fed to a female in the larval stage will transform her into a queen. The queen lives up to five years while other bees are only around for a few weeks. It contains B5 and other B vitamins, plus amino acids, potassium, magnesium, calcium, zinc, iron, and manganese. BEE PROPOLIS: acts as protection from bacteria and viruses for the bees, and it is collected for humans for use as an antibacterial, antifungal, and antibiotic.SAVE NOW on Black Friday offers below!
