Suggested Use:Propolis tincture can be used internally, or externally.The most palatable way to take propolis tincture internally is to add a few drops to a spoonful of honey or one of our tonics, and swallow. On it's own propolis tincture is very strong - to take internally straight, we recommend dropping it towards the back of your throat and swallowing.Be cautious not to get propolis on your clothing - it will stain! It can also temporarily stain your teeth.
I have been using the propolis tincture twice a day on my toenails to try and get rid of toenail fungus. After 2 weeks of use I believe it is working. It seems to penetrate the nail unlike other products I have tried. I have also used it on cuts and believe it accelerates the healing process.
I am so happy to have stumbled upon this wonderful company while searching for a trustworthy source of propolis. Long story short I recently decided to implement propolis into my gut healing protocol upon reading about its powerful benefits. Loving all the other products as well. Consider me a customer for life!
Propolis is the third most important component of bee products. It is composed mainly of resin (50%), wax (30%), essential oils (10%), pollen (5%), and other organic compounds (5%) [12]. Phenolic compounds, esters, flavonoids, terpenes, beta-steroids, aromatic aldehydes, and alcohols are the important organic compounds present in propolis [13]. Twelve different flavonoids, namely, pinocembrin, acacetin, chrysin, rutin, luteolin, kaempferol, apigenin, myricetin, catechin, naringenin, galangin, and quercetin; two phenolic acids, caffeic acid and cinnamic acid; and one stilbene derivative called resveratrol have been detected in propolis extracts by capillary zone electrophoresis [14]. Propolis also contains important vitamins, such as vitamins B1, B2, B6, C, and E and useful minerals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), potassium (K), sodium (Na), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and iron (Fe). A few enzymes, such as succinic dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, and acid phosphatase, are also present in propolis [15].
The molecular mechanisms responsible for the wound-healing activity of propolis is shown in Figure 4. Fibronectin (FN) is a multifunctional glycoprotein of high molecular weight, which influences the structural stability and functional properties of various organs and tissues (Stoffels, 2013). The fibronectin matrix and its accumulation are essential for cell migration, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, cell adhesion, apoptosis, cellular signaling, angiogenesis, collagen biosynthesis, re-epithelialization, clot formation, and platelet activity. Fibronectins are also important in the repair mechanisms for conditions such as glycoprotein intensified degradation, which leads to a defective cellular microenvironment and affliction in the structure of granulation tissues. This condition may prevent the wound from healing or inhibit the repair process. The accumulation of fibronectin in the extracellular space also modulates the secretion of other repairing components such as collagen type I and type III, tenascin, laminin, and fibrillin.
Thousands of years ago, ancient civilizations used propolis for its medicinal properties. Greeks used it to treat abscesses. Assyrians put it on wounds and tumors to fight infection and help the healing process. Egyptians used it to embalm mummies.
Propolis also contains other potential healing compounds, such as amino acids, vitamins A, C, and E, as well as minerals such as potassium and magnesium. Other components naturally found in propolis include pollen, wax, and resin.
Propolis has a special compound called pinocembrin, a flavonoid that acts as an antifungal. These anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties make propolis helpful in treating wounds, such as burns.
While one 2022 review discusses the potential enhancement of propolis when combined with certain drugs, such as those used to treat type 2 diabetes or cancer, another 2017 study cautions that the supplement can increase bleeding and possibly interact with medications such as warfarin.
Clinical research now supports many traditional apitherapy uses, which is why you can now find medical grade honey for wound healing, store-bought honey cough syrup, and healing balms that include honey, propolis extract, bee pollen and royal jelly. Even bee venom has been the subject of clinical research. (1)
Beekeepers often remove bits of propolis while caring for their hives, but harvesting larger amounts usually involves placing a flexible screen with cracks just inside the top of the hive cover. The bees will instinctively fill in all the cracks, which allows the beekeeper to remove the entire screen and harvest the propolis.
Together, these compounds form the complex and highly synergistic sticky substance we call propolis. Each constituent complements and reinforces the biological activity of the others, making it one of the most fascinating and useful substances we know of.
Aristotle was so fascinated by bees that he commissioned a beehive to be constructed out of glass so he could observe them. It would have been amazing if it had worked, but they covered the walls in dark, sticky propolis and thwarted his plans. (6)
Hippocrates, who is considered the father of modern medicine, was one of the first physicians to use propolis on wounds. (15) Not surprisingly, in recent studies topical propolis has been found to support healing for a variety of wounds including burns and surgical incisions. (16) (17)
When applied three times per day, ointments containing 0.5-3% propolis have also been found to ease cold sore symptoms. (18) Most options are formulated with petrolatum and liquid paraffin, but this one is made with natural oils and essential oils.
In two separate clinical trials with 70+ kids and a few adults, propolis reduced plaque buildup while supporting beneficial bacteria in the oral microbiome. (19) (20) The thing I love most about this study is that it was done with kids, because we all know kids are not always the most thorough when brushing their teeth.
In another small study, it actually worked better than regular commercial toothpaste for reducing plaque. (21) And in this study, children who used a chewing gum containing propolis and xylitol had lower counts of a bacteria called Streptococcus mutans, which is considered to be one of the primary causes of tooth decay and cavities. (22)
According to Dr. Antanas Gendrolis, the Lithuanian researcher and apitherapy expert I mentioned earlier, there are a few safety considerations regarding propolis. Here are his suggestions, which are from his book: Propolis. Natural Medicine. (translated from Lithuanian):
Although to our best knowledge, no harm of propolis has been established, however, it was observed that some people are allergic, therefore, you must first make sure that you are not sensitive to it. It must be used with caution by patients with bronchial asthma, eczema and other allergic diseases. If you notice allergic reactions from propolis, its use should be discontinued.
Prof. A. Siniakov states that about 0.3 to 2% of people are allergic to propolis. In mild cases, local symptoms of a week allergic reaction appear (redness, itching, rash, etc.), in severe cases, a common reaction is weakness, dizziness, fever, etc. All this indicates that you cannot start the treatment with propolis products without first checking the patient allergenicity.

Propolis is natures antiseptic marvel. Eating propolis daily in small doses can help strengthen the immune system against bacteria, fungi, and viruses, including the flu. Unlike medicine, which attacks both healthful and harmful bacteria, propolis only goes after bad bacteria. Furthermore, propolis is not affected by the various mutations of bacteria, as it works against all strains in general. Honey Pacifica features propolis, as one of our many rare bee products. Propolis is made from resin that is seeped by tree bark or buds, which bees gather and mix with waxy flakes. The bees use propolis as a lining to create sterile cells for the upcoming brood (baby bees). Contents of propolis include 3-5% Propolis and the balance is Propylene Glycol. Our propolis tincture comes in a 1 oz. jar.
The best alcohol to use is 70% ethyl alcohol (also known as grain alcohol or Everclear). This would allow the tincture to be used internally or externally. You can use rubbing alcohol or isopropyl alcohol if the tincture will be used externally only.
Propolis Extract Procedure1. Collect propolis from the bee hive. The propolis should be clean and free of wax, paint, wood etc. The propolis should be in small pieces. The smaller the better but no larger than a marble.2. Determine the percentage propolis you want to extract. It is not recommended that concentrations higher than 30% be extracted. If you require a higher percentage, make a 30% extract and concentrate it as described below.3. Place the proper amount of alcohol and propolis (see chart below) into a container and seal the top. Shake and store in a warm dark place. I put it in a brown paper bag on the counter.4. Two or three times per day shake the container and return to warm dark place. Continue this for 2 weeks.
1. Start by making a 30% extraction mixture.2. Mix 1 part extract with 9 parts petroleum jelly by weight. Start with extract and slowly mix in the petroleum jelly. You can liquefy the jelly by heating in a double boiler but you must continue to stir until it solidifies or the propolis will settle to the bottom. 59ce067264
