What is propolis?

Propolis is the sticky substance produced by bees, which results from the collection of resinous secretions from the bark of plants and they enrich it with wax, pollen, enzymes and other substances. Propolis is used by bees to seal and disinfect the interior of the hive where the bee brood was to be housed and honey and pollen to be stored.
The word contains the concept of protection and defense, something that refers to the preservation and protection of the skin.
The potential healing properties of propolis have been known since ancient times. Today, propolis is widely promoted as a medicine, either as a pure preparation or as a component of other preparations, even though any of its therapeutic properties have not been scientifically proven.
