🍯 Raw propolis
Propolis, or bee glue, is a green-brown gummy substance produced by bees by mixing their saliva with beeswax and other compounds they collect from trees and evergreen plants.
Bees use propolis to fill gaps in the hive and protect bees from infectious diseases. Humans have benefited from it in many health and medical fields since ancient civilizations.
