Bee pollen is simply the seed found on the stamen of all flower blossoms. It is used by many people around the world as a dietary supplement for energy, stamina and immune system health. Honeybees collect the pollen on their legs as they fly from plant to plant in search of nectar. The pollen collected pollen is deposited as the bees re-enter the beehive. A small brush-like device at the entrance to the beehive brushes the pollen from the rear legs of the bees, where it simply falls to the floor of the hive.
