APITHERAPY / BEE VENOM THERAPY
Currently in China there are entire hospitals devoted to the use and research of bee products in health and disease. In Europe, bee venom therapy has enjoyed popularity for rheumatic, arthritic, and chronic pain conditions. It is considered mainstream treatment. Various studies performed by agencies including NASA, the Multiple Sclerosis Society, and the Navy have shown that bee venom contains at least 18 active substances including adolapin and melittin. These are potent natural substances with great anti-inflammatory properties that far exceed steroids. Scientific research has shown melittin (a component of bee venom) stimulates production of nerve growth factor and fibroblast growth factors as well as osteogenesis (bone growth) in the laboratory.
