Briefly, it is a resin, but a very complex one. Humans cannot recreate it, which is why it remains as a mystery even in the modern times when technology is advanced. It is a wonderful substance known for its plenty of uses and effectiveness for keeping human health. It contain potent antibiotic substances called galangin, which is said to boost the body\u2019s immunity against sickness, especially where it has to do with boosting the activity of the phagocyte,\u00a0 the body\u2019s natural warriors against bacteria and germs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Propolis Benefits at a Glance<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Cancer fighting<\/li>\n<li>Antimicrobial<\/li>\n<li>Dental cavity prevention<\/li>\n<li>Burn and wound healing<\/li>\n<li>Wart removal<\/li>\n<li>Parasite treatment<\/li>\n<li>Immunity booster<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Propolis &amp; Its Properties Explained Further<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Aside from its antibiotic and immunity-boosting properties, it is also known in reducing inflammation with its ability of controlling the activities of prostaglandins. Propolis aids in the promotion of human health, even during the times of Hippocrates, when it was used in healing skin ulcers and open sores, as well as internal ulcers. In the modern times, this wonderful substance is still used for such use aside from those previously mentioned. Additionally, it can help in relieving fever and inflammation. In fact, it was used in dressing the wounds of soldiers during the World War II.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the recent times, propolis is also used in fighting colitis, flu virus and tuberculosis, as well as in treating acne. Another thing that makes it unique is that it can be effective in fighting a specific strain of bacteria called staphylococcus. It is also used in boosting the immune system, as it works two times better than conventional antibiotics. Propolis does not only kill the germs, but it also has its own germ-fighting characteristics that make it effective in preventing the spread of germs in the body.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And when it comes to cancer, propolis cannot also be underestimated. According to Dr. Seema Patel of the San Diego State University and his study, he found out, based on animal and laboratory tests that propolis is effective in fighting certain types of cancers, including that of the brain, kidney and bladder, skin, pancreas, prostate, blood, colon and breast, among others. No wonder, it has over 300 active compounds, which are effective in preventing or fighting cancer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some of its functions include the prevention of the growth of new blood vessels, which would feed the cancer cells, an action called anti-angiogenesis. Propolis can also help prevent the spread of cancer from an organ to another organ as well as it stop cancer cell division. It also induces programmed cell death or apoptosis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To get all the healing and health benefits of propolis, make sure to buy it only from reputable sources.\u00a0 Finally, refer to this guide and share it with friends so that they can also learn about what propolis is and what its uses are.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;
