Royal Jelly is the highly nutritive hormone-charged food fed exclusively
to the Queen Bee. All bees start life the same; the Queen is not
genetically superior. It is the royal diet which transforms an
ordinary bee larva into a Queen. The Queen Bee is made - not born.
Only the baby larvae destined to be reared as Queens are pampered and fed
this very special royal milk.
Royal jelly is manufactured by "nurse bees", who must bypass
honey and eat a powerful diet of richly nutritive bee pollen in order to
produce the royal milk. Baby queens still in their waxen
nursery-cells literally "swim" in a tiny pool of liquid royal
jelly, which they greedily eat as larvae and in the pupal stage of
development. A mature Queen Bee drinks the royal milk directly from
the pharyngeal glands of the "nurse bees" of her court.
The
Queen Bee enjoys many miraculous advantages over the ordinary bees of the
hive. The
Queen live for six to seven years; the workers die exhausted in six to
seven weeks.
The
Queen is the only member of the hive able to mate and reproduce the
species; the worker bees are sexless.
The
Queen lays eggs weighing more than her own body weight everyday, and
incredible feat. The
Queen is of superior beauty, size, strenght and ability. Her
superior characteristics are visible to the naked eye.
It
is Royal Jelly which sets the Queen Bee apart from the sexless workers of
the hive. It is royal jelly which enables the Queen Bee alone of all
the bees in the hive to mate and reproduce. It is royal jelly which
transforms the Queen Bee into such a superior specimen. And it is
royal jelly which dramatically extends her natural lifespan.
Historical
Considerations
Physicians
ministering to the maharajahs and maharanees of ancient India dispensed
royal jelly to insure fertility and continuation of the royal lineage.
Oriental
potentates relied of royal jelly for its magical power to rekindle
exhausted sexual desires and restore lost potency.
The
fabled ability of royal jelly to dramatically rejuvenate the body and
extend the lifespan was once known only to royalty and others of great
wealth. The
secret has been passed on. Starting with Queen Victoria, who had the
longest reign in English history, it has been reliably reported all
British Royals take royal jelly daily.
