In recent years, we‘ve all become a lot more aware of natural health and wellbeing. As a result, we‘re a lot more discerning about what we put in and on our bodies. We‘ve also come to value prevention more, and increasingly look to natural supplements and other products from ethical and sustainable brands to support our health every day.
A healthy diet, exercise and sleep are the key cornerstones to maintaining good health and strong defences. When it comes to diet, there are many nutrients that have been shown to effectively support specific health concerns that are not easy to obtain from our regular food sources, or provided by multivitamins.
One of the reasons Unbeelievable Health launched their range 10 years ago was a realisation of how many supplement brands were made using cheap, synthetic ingredients. Of course, it‘s more expensive to produce high-quality botanical and food-sourced supplements using therapeutic levels of active ingredients, but don‘t you deserve the best for your health? When it comes to supporting issues like immunity, sleep, energy and stress, cutting corners is not an option.
Unbeelievable Health‘s all-in-one targeted combinations of highest quality plant-based ingredients are researched and formulated by registered nutritionists and health experts. They blend nutrient-packed bee products such as propolis, bee pollen and royal jelly with botanicals and food-sourced ingredients, all backed by studies. Indeed, there over 2000 studies showing how propolis can support immunity and health.
These unique blends – winners of over 30 industry awards – help to optimise any health regime and support specific concerns including immunity, hay fever, energy and focus, anxiety and stress, and sleep. And they‘re highly concentrated, so fewer are required. You can combine different capsules to support different needs, and if you don‘t like swallowing pills, simply empty the contents into juice or food. Take daily as required, or all-year round.
Here‘s the buzz on the blends…
BEST FOR WHEN YOU’RE FRAZZLED
Life can be stressful, whether it’s down to pressures from work, family or feeling like you have zero time to get through your to-do list. Sound familiar? A supplement such as Bee Calm for Relaxation and Wellbeing (£13.99, 20 capsules) could support you in managing your stress and finding some relaxation – it contains ingredients which are shown to help ease tension, stress and anxiety and promote a sense of wellbeing, such as lemon balm, magnesium and rhodiola. That’s not all: Bee Calm could also help you focus, as it contains lion’s mane mushroom and vitamin B5 (also known as pantothenic acid) which contribute to optimal mental performance. Try it when feeling anxious, worried, agitated, low or stressed.
BEST FOR A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP
If you struggle to nod off at night or you find yourself waking in the small hours and end up tossing and turning for ages, it could be time to consider a supplement that aids sleep such as Bee Rested Sleep Support (£13.99, 20 capsules). These capsules combine nine therapeutic ingredients shown to help you nod off faster and wake up less in the night, including royal jelly, griffonia seed extract (a source of 5-HTP), montmorency cherry, lavender, hops, saffron, chamomile and more. Effects may be felt after your first dose but the benefits can build over time. You can also take them in tandem with Bee Calm for extra support. Simply take a capsule 30 minutes before bedtime.
BEST FOR SEEING OFF BUGS
Chances are you’ve probably given a lot of thought to bolstering your immune system in the last couple of years. The good news: you can help strengthen your body’s defences against coughs, sore throats and the like with Bee Prepared Daily Defence (£11.99, 30 capsules) which contain a blend of bee propolis, black elderberry, olive leaf and beta glucans, along with other ingredients with natural antibiotic, antiviral and antihistamine properties to help support the immunity year-round. Go for Bee Prepared Max Strength (£14.99, 20 capsules) when you need an extra boost if you’re suffering with hay fever, when you’re feeling run down or before or after travelling. Try Bee Prepared.
BEST FOR ENERGY
Ah, energy. Wouldn’t it be great if you had a bit more of it? Instead of turning to sugar or caffeine, an energy supplement might do the trick. Here’s the deal: Bee Energised Energy and Focus (£11.99, 20 capsules) capsules are packed with bee pollen, spirulina and organic matcha tea, along with rosemary extract, B vitamins, ginseng and more to fight off fatigue and keep you feeling sharp. You can add the capsule contents – like all the capsules in the Unbeelievable Health range – to smoothies, juices and raw recipes to give your food and drink an energy shot. Try Bee Energised
YOUR BEE PRODUCTS CHEAT SHEET
