Have you ever heard about Propolis? Propolis is natural antibiotic. It help keep our health by increasing body immune. It called antibiotic due to it's anti bacterial, anti virus and anti fungi characteristics. This is one of grace of God to mankind. Propolis is a resinous mixture that honey bees collect from tree buds, sap flows, or other botanical sources. It is used as a sealant for unwanted open spaces in the hive. For more information about Propolis, you can read in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propolis. I have use this to keep my system immune. I have two children and both are easily suffer from cold and cough. I gave them propolis twice a day. Since they consume propolis, they didn't get suffer from cold and cough anymore. There are many kind of diseases could be healed by propolis. Cancer, tuberculosis, and tumor can be healed. It's very amazing. I prefer to consume propolis rather than medicine such us amoxyciline or other antibiotic medicine.

Bees make propolis, which they use to glue the materials of their hives together, by mixing beeswax and other secretions with resins from the buds of conifer and poplar trees. Those resins have natural germicidal properties. For centuries, people have used propolis on wounds and as a remedy for ailments ranging from acne to cancer, osteoporosis, itching, and tuberculosis. Today, propolis is used in the manufacture of chewing gum, cosmetics, creams, lozenges and ointments and is being investigated as a dental sealant and tooth enamel hardener. A number of studies have tested its effectiveness in humans and animals as a treatment for burns, minor wounds, infections, inflammatory diseases, dental pain, and genital herpes. While promising, the results of these studies are preliminary

So do I. I posted this discussion based on my experiences. Propolis is good for cold and cough. It's contain flovanoid that help keep our immune. When give it to kids, reduce the dosage to a half than we consume.

hi de toya I had always thought that propolis was the substance the worker bees feed to the queens as my father ran a honey business for years during the second world war and he made huge profits too as sugar was rationed. I have heard its a natural antibiotic but I doubt if it cures cancer and tuberculous however people want it to. For my own illnesses I just go to my doctor and take antibiotics as I know they will work and a lot of this so called natural stuff does not. I am not sold on all those high blown phrases for natural stuff as it cannot cure everything, that's just wishful thinking. Doctors are also by grace of God and I depend on them first.

I made this post based on my experiences. Indeed, for cancer or tuberculosis I never heard by myself from the person who use propolis to heal cancer or tuberculosis. I think, propolis could be the alternative way to heal cancer. I prefer use propolis rather than go to doctor. Take antibiotics would affect in others organ of our body. Moreover, I prefer to use propolis as prevention rather than medication.
