My opinion on bee pollen is that it is acidic and toxic to the body.


Im guessing that is because it is produced by an animal?

Farty, he's callin you out bro. YOU GONNA TAKE THAT?



Any opinion on this, Farty/anyjuan? Svb can you give source of this info?



Are you fucking serious? That sounds fucking insanemode. holy literalfuck... wtf why is this not revolutionary?

Is your second line sarcastic or do you truly reckon eating a lot of bee pollen would lead to epic gains?


dunno
i think something bad would probably happen if you ate that much
they say to have an ounce a day
16 ounces would be wild

Hmm... considering the 40% protein ratio, that calculated to about 11.3 grams of protein for an ounce.

Kind of a shame, I thought for a moment that this might be the holy grail :(

There's little evidence to support that theory.

Quote
One group of diseases, the invertebrate iridescent viruses [IIV], were found to be present in 100 per cent of cases, but also in some strong colonies. A high correlation was found between Nosema and IIV in collapsed colonies, but finding Nosema alone was not found reliably to predict collapse.

To test the correlation, newly born bees were caged and fed a common type of Nosema (Nosema Ceranae, originally found in the Asian honeybee but now also seen in the European bees found in domestic and commercial beehives around the world), or a dose of IIV, or both, or none. The rate of deaths increased in those fed a combination of the two pathogens, but those fed only one or the other survived for the same length of time as the control group, who remained free of either infection.

I looked for a while and all I could find was a short q&a with dr young, all he says is that it's acidic and toxic.

Perhaps, but I don't think bee pollen is produced by the bee, but it is collected on the bees leg as it collects nectar. This would make sense though if it is considered an animal product.
