What is Propolis? Propolis, also known as “bee glue”, is a natural resinous substance produced by honey bees using enzymes and beeswax to mix with natural sap from botanical sources. It is applied to the entrance of bee hive to protect against bacteria and viruses, and also used as a sealant for cracks on the hives. Propolis possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Since ancient times, propolis extract has been used widely in folk medicine to prevent or treat various diseases. The compounds of propolis include phenolic acids, flavonoids, esters, diterpenes, sesquiterpenes, lignans, aromatic aldehydes, alcohols, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Not All Propolis are Equal Propolis are categorised into 3 classes – red, green and brown propolis. Among all, the Brazilian Green Propolis from Southeast of Brazil, Minas Gerais state, is the most researched and coveted for its large amounts of phenolic compounds, including Artepillin C and Flavonoids; their synergistic properties deliver extensive health benefits which lower grade propolis could not. Only Brazilian Green Propolis has large amounts of the prized Artepillin C Brazilian Green Propolis Ultimate is a top-grade propolis with unprecedented concentrations of >5% Flavonoids and >7% Artepillin C.

Got a lot of questions about my homemade ice bath so thought I’d write a post to explain a little more 🥶 . The inspiration for it was from reading Wim Hof’s new book. I’ve been taking cold showers for the last two years, but if you know anything about the water temp in Taiwan (especially in the summer), it’s nowhere near freezing 😆 . Stumbled across a YouTube video explaining how to convert a chest freezer into an ice bath and knew I had to give it a go. . But why ice baths/showers? As Wim Hof says, “a cold shower a day keeps the doctor away” . One of the key benefits of doing a cold shower/ice bath is that it helps reduce inflammation. But other benefits include things such as: better sleep, more focus, improved immune response, and more. . A few key tips if you want to build your own: - use a silicone sealant to seal all the edges - Use an outlet timer. I set it to turn on only 3hrs a day and that keeps it right at 0*C. If you don’t, it’ll just turn into one big block of ice - Stating the obvious, but unplug before you get in. . . . . #icebath #wimhof #wimhofmethod #coldshower #ice #coldplunge
