Today's episode is all about bees. Yes, you read right. Some are afraid of them, some think we should save them but aren't sure why...today should help clear all that up.
You've probably heard of manuka honey and its potential uses for skin rashes. So it's already established that honey can help!
My guest for today's episode is Carly Stein. Carly is the founder and CEO of Beekeeper's Naturals, a natural health product company developing innovative bee-made nutraceuticals to provide effective natural solutions to modern health problems.
Carly is committed to using her company as a platform to raise awareness and funding for the bee cause and promoting sustainable practices and pesticide-free beekeeping.
In this episode, we talk more about the different kinds of bee products and how they can be useful for those of us with chronic skin rashes.
Do you use any bee products in your skincare routine? Tell us about it in the comments!

Quotes
“There's all these different superfoods that bees make that have very different beneficial health effects.” [3:27]
“In nature, Royal Jelly has some pretty insane effects. The queen bee [who eats only Royal Jelly] will live three to five years, versus a regular bee that lives six to eight weeks during foraging season.” [6:43]
“Propolis will combat any sort of impurities and fight inflammation; honey helps with moisture, exfoliation and antioxidants; pollen is really high in vitamins...and Royal Jelly is the ultimate anti-aging agent: full of fatty acids, it's really nourishing and healing.” [9:32]
"Even in the natural product space, it's really hard to know what's clean." [18:30}
