Y.S. Organics Fresh Bee Pollen Whole Granules, 8 Ounce

I bought this for years & enjoyed it's mild & sweet taste as a treat to munch on as I drink coffee. Tried several other cheaper brands that all tasted like chemicals. Starting with an order I placed late in the spring 2022 & just tasted recently, the product now tastes like chemicals to me. Don't know what changed at the farms other than they were significantly impacted by the covid lockdown & supply chain & employees for hire like every other organization. Granted pollen is subject to change throughout the season as bees harvest from different plants. Did they harvest from bitter flowers? No idea. The product likely is still very healthy & very usable to cook various foods or make smoothies where the pollen taste is hidden by other flavors.

I have been taking this brand every day for a month. I started with a few granules and worked up to 2 heaping teaspoons twice a day. I try to take it first thing in the morning and about a half hour before supper every night. It tastes very sweet. It is very easy to take all by itself. I just let it sit in my mouth and "melt", then swallow it. I have definitely noticed an improvement in my health and resistance to bugs. A bug just went through all the members of my house last week, and I just had a scratchy throat for a few days. Normally I get a runny nose and cough that lasts and lasts. This same bug gave my 1 y/o niece pneumonia, if that tells you anything. I gave the pollen to my kids a few times, and they love the taste and ask for more! I am going to start giving it to them every day through the winter, and hopefully beyond. I am sooooooo glad I discovered this!

I use this amongst other healthy additions to my morning shake. I do think it helped to calm a small chronic rash but too soon to say with certainty. Either way, has positive benefits.

At first I really didn't like the taste. I started taking it again but just swallow it without chewing or anything. Now I'm an enthusiast! I believe it has really helped my immune system. I feel a lot healthier. The little bit of flavor tones that I pick up on are sort of sweet. Not at all repulsive like I had first thought. I'll buy it again!

My teenager adds to her twice daily spinach-yogurt-strawberry-banana smoothies and it helps her avoid colds and vog (volcanic fog) allergy sensitivity. She notices when she cuts back on the bee pollen because her nose starts to bother her in voggy weather.

its ok

I like everything about it. It keeps me healthy.

Y.S. Been farms pollen is my vitamin source and has been so for over 10 years. You will not find a better brand. Bee pollen gives us all of the vitamins and enzymes that we need. If I only had one supplement to take for health, it would be Bee Pollen!
