  • I don't believe I've ever heard that. Where would you get bee pollen, at stores? I honestly don't even know what bee pollen is, haha.
  • I have not heard that. I have heard that if you buy local honey and "eat" a tablespoon of it everyday, that it's a natural cure for sinus issues.

    I've taken it for pollen allergies. Gave myself headaches twice everyday for 3 months....no improvement.

    Haven't heard of it assisting weight loss though.
  • I was curious what it was, so I googled it. I found a website: http://www.beepollensecrets.com/

    I use it in my Greek yogurt, protein pudding, etc.-- It's a superfood.. I add it for antioxidants and nutrition.. Not weight loss.

    Edit: I bought a pound bag of the powder.. The granules need to be soaked to break outer "shell" or something -- Too much of a hassle!

    I know that Tosca Reno of the Eat Clean Diet recommends it, but honestly I don't know what it's supposed to do.
