      Propolis is a natural substance brewed by bees collected from plant essences. In recent years, the research on propolis in various countries around the world has become more systematic, in-depth and comprehensive, and there are many works, such as "Propolis and Diabetes", "The Effect of Propolis on Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular", "The Miracle of Propolis", "Propolis Can Remove Toxins from the Body", "Propolis Instant Effect" healthy Act" and tens of thousands of research reports have confirmed that propolis has many health effects on humans.

      Question: Why are there so many Chinese elderly Will take propolis products all year round

      Answer: Fifty years ago, the famous Russian biologist Nikolai Zykin conducted such a survey. He selected 200 elderly people over 100 years old in the Caucasus. These elderly people not only live long lives, but are also in good health. After investigation, he found that so far, not one of them has died of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. disease , all belong to the body's natural failure and death. Surprisingly, 143 of these healthy and long-lived elderly people are beekeepers, and 34 have a long history of beekeeping. Therefore, middle-aged and elderly people choose propolis products for their health and longevity.

      Q: What should you pay attention to when buying propolis?

      Answer: 1. Read the approval document. There are many types of propolis products on the market now. Therefore, when purchasing, you should choose products that have been strictly inspected and tested by the state and have obtained formal approval. ; 2. Look at the scientific research strength of the R&D and production units. The research and development of propolis is a task with very high technical requirements. When purchasing propolis products, you should choose units with strong scientific research and production capabilities.

      Q: The prices of various propolis products on the market now vary greatly, so how are the specific retail prices determined?

      Answer: China is one of the largest propolis-producing countries in the world, but most of the propolis is exported overseas as a cheap raw material. In some countries, it is processed and then sold back into the country. Freight, tariffs and intermediate links increase the prices at all levels. Propolis products imported into the country are already sky-high prices. However, if some domestic small companies without R&D and production capabilities start with local methods, make crude products, and sell the raw propolis after simple processing, although such propolis products are cheap, but because they have not undergone strict lead removal and separation processing, not only the functional components of the propolis itself cannot be exerted, but also the high lead content will cause certain damage to the human body. Therefore, a good propolis product must not only have scientific research technology, but also have production strength. For example, for a certain brand of propolis product currently on the market, which only sells for more than 60 yuan per bottle, the early scientific research funds are not allocated to each product, but production and sales are integrated. This eliminates the need for many intermediate links to increase prices, and the price is naturally closer to the affordability of ordinary people.

      Question: Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are indeed a serious problem. Why are propolis products with "immune regulation" functions suitable for people with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?

      Answer: Various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems in the elderly will cause great pain to the elderly. Preventing the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems in the elderly and strengthening prevention and health care are particularly important to maintain the physical and mental health of the elderly. According to surveys, as long as middle-aged and elderly people strengthen their awareness of the prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems can be prevented. Prevention can start from the following aspects: First, maintain good living habits, regular work and rest times, ensure adequate sleep, and correct bad habits of smoking and drinking. ; Second, pay attention to dietary regulation, pay attention to the reasonable combination of nutrients in food, control weight, reduce the intake of animal fat, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. ; Third, cultivating hobbies, maintaining a good mental state, and maintaining a stable and optimistic mood are important factors in preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems. ; Fourth, conduct regular preventive examinations for stroke and check your body regularly so that effective preventive measures can be taken ; The fifth and most important point is to actively prevent various factors that may cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems, such as high blood pressure, Hyperlipidemia etc., are all important factors causing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems. Taking high-quality propolis products with "immune regulation" health care functions can enhance immunity, effectively prevent and protect health, thus achieving twice the result with half the effort.

      Q: How do middle-aged and elderly people choose high-quality propolis products?

      Answer: You need to consider whether you have six major advantages:

      (1) Purely natural

      The air and water sources in the propolis beekeeping base are pure and pollution-free, which ensures that the raw materials of propolis products are purely natural and safer to consume.

      (2) Health prescriptions

      For middle-aged and elderly people, the selected high-quality propolis products should be specially manufactured for middle-aged and elderly people based on their physiological characteristics. And it’s not just propolis, it should be a scientific formula, a formula that cannot be copied, so that the effect will be good.

      (3) Production passes GMP

      High-quality propolis products should have first-class cultivation bases and modern production lines, and pass international GMP certification to ensure that production management is in line with international standards.

      (4) Reasonable price

      A good propolis product should be a scientific research product with a reasonable price that ordinary people can afford.

      (5) The effect is real

      Look at the year on the market for high-quality propolis products. The longer they have been on the market, it means they can withstand the test of practice. Second, look at the people who take it. If the middle-aged and elderly friends around you are taking this brand of propolis, it must be a high-quality propolis suitable for middle-aged and elderly friends. It has obvious effects and can help improve immunity.

      (6) Lead removal technology

      High-quality propolis products suitable for middle-aged and elderly people must be developed specifically for middle-aged and elderly people after years of scientific research by scientists. During the development process, the technical difficulties of "lead removal" should be overcome, and it should be approved by the Ministry of Health. The quality should be guaranteed and it can be taken for a long time. The longer it is taken, the better the effect.

      Q: Which elderly people should be protected by high-quality propolis products suitable for middle-aged and elderly people?
