In noting the absence of information on nutritional and therapeutic use of bee products have encouraged me to share with readers the foreground.
The valuable information on the nutritional and therapeutic use of honey, honeydew, or honeydew honey, royal jelly, propolis, pollen, or bee venom apitoxin, wax, beeswax and Apilarnil Pan, things like properties, characteristics, therapeutic uses, etc., little by little we know and getting to use it in its entirety for our benefit, products that accompany us from remote ages.
One technique little known in our country, but very much in vogue in Europe, Asia and America, is the Apipuntura whose origin is established in Japan, is the combination of acupuncture and the direct application of the bee in the human body's energy points and animals. (photos of article) Acu (needle ), Api (bee), the application of bee venom apitoxina or are trying to rheumatic diseases, multiple sclerosis, the dreaded AIDS in combination with propolis and other bee products and a vast range of health problems.
bee sting Although we know it hurts, when it caused can do the opposite, and become the therapy of some diseases. Researchers celebrated as
Joiriche (Moscow) and Dr. Saine (Montreal) have found the therapeutic properties of bee venom in the form of pitting caused.
There are several ways to practice Apipuntura:
Putting the bee on the sick, for example, gout and rheumatism, as did Charlemagne and Ivan the Terrible. This type of treatment is often given in stages over several weeks, reaching a total of more than 100 bites in total.
Treatments:
The Russian doctor Orlov tried in 1969 in the conference in Bucharest on the venom of bees and its effect on the central nervous system. According to some legends pray many cases of plague and cholera were cured with bee stings. What is certain is that today has proven effective in cases of bronchitis, goiter exophthalmic and ophthalmia.
bee venom revulsive properties faster than those of mustard, because it is a heart tonic, a blood thinner and vasodilator (dilates the arteries).
is very effective for rheumatism, sciatica, gout, arthritis, neuritis, neuralgia, progressive chronic polyarthritis and malaria.
bee venom is a general tonic, increasing the dynamism of the subject who submits to their bites in a controlled and voluntary.
bee venom, also known as apitoxina (from Latin apis, bee, and the Greek toxikon, poison) is produced by a gland secretion of acid and alkaline secretion including another inside the abdomen of worker bee. Is introduced into our skin at a rate of 0.3 MG. for each bite, for a device Vulnerant whose sting is particularly well known.
bee's stinger has a long stylet, about 2 mm. pointed, which was then extended to 0.1mm in diameter. In the pen there are several small teeth, some of 0.03mm in length. These teeth are those who hold the sting in the bee stings object, causing the loss of the sting and its life.
When you click the bee, the stylet penetrates the object crushed to half its length.
Bee venom is a clear liquid with pronounced honey scent and bitter taste, pungent. Its density is, 1313. A drop placed on the blue litmus paper turns red immediately, which indicates an acid reaction.
can be regarded as a violent poison endothelial as well as a strong stimulant of smooth muscle. We designate it as a general protoplasmic poison.
main features apitoxina or bee venom are:
Appearance: Clear liquid, slightly yellow, sharp and bitter taste, strong smell aromatic.
Specific Gravity: 1.1313.
PH. Acid reaction.
Soluble in water and acids.
almost insoluble in alcohol.
solutions are not stable, become infected and rapidly decomposed by bacteria.
It dries rapidly at room temperature.
very thermostable, supports 100 ° C for lh or freezing for 10 days without losing its power.
is easily destroyed by oxidizing substances: potassium permanganate, potassium sulphate, chlorine, bromine, alcohol.
digestive enzymes (ptialina, pepsin, pancreatin, rennin) and vegetables (Papin, papayotina) quickly weaken and vice versa, the poison quickly affects the effectiveness of enzymes. Destroy each other.
is destroyed by alkalies (eg ammonia) strong acids and strong antiseptic.
Like snake venom has no effect when taken orally.
glycerin is retained indefinitely (it has been reported about 22 years of conservation)
A bee sting is equal to 0.012mg of dried venom (0.03 to 04 mg. Of liquid poison) This is called a conventional unit.
Chemical composition of venom.
Chemical analysis shows that in addition to plenty of water (88 wt%), contains histamine, melittin, a protein that is relatively simple: a lysolecithin, apamin (1-3%, and 2 enzymes, phospholipase A2 (10-12%) and hyaluronidase (1-3%).
also has formic acid, hydrochloric , and orthophosphoric, choline, tryptophan, micro elements iron, iodine, potassium, sulfur, chlorine, calcium, magnesium, manganese, copper, zinc and other compounds. It also contains melittin (50%) secapine (0.5-2.0%), peptide DCM (1.2%), tertiapina 80.1%), procamina (1.2%) dopamine (0.2-1.0%), norepinephrine (0.1-0.5%) r-aminobutyric acid, glucose, fructose, phospholipids, amino acids and pheromones.
has been reported their medicinal properties are due, essentially, magnesium phosphate, MG3 (PO4) 2, which represents 0.4% of the dry weight of venom.
is very rich in nitrogenous compounds, volatile acids disappearing in the process of drying and contains many diastase addition of phospholipase A and hyaluronidase as indicated.
apitoxin BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY:
The therapeutic value of bee venom is mainly due to hemorrhagic and neurotoxic properties. The effects of the poison are as follows.
- dilates blood vessels, accelerates and enhances circulation.
- has anticoagulant properties, carries inactivating action on plasma and tissue thromboplastin, and thrombin activity decreases.
- has bacteriostatic effect.
- has local anesthetic effect.
- Improves liver function.
- Improves brain activity.
- Cura myocardial diseases.
- has immunological action in the treatment of rheumatic diseases.
- has action hemolytic leucolipitica, plasmolítica and circulation.
- Increases nitrogen elements in the urine.
- breathing accelerates.
- Decreases cholesterol.
- Increases urate.
- increases metabolism, stimulates several metabolic processes, including bone metabolism (welding speeds fractures), increases the supply of oxygen and provides additional warmth.
- Destroys bacterial growth.
- is an active immunizing agent.
- is radio protector (injected into mice protects against lethal doses of radiation), so it can serve to protect against injury from radiation.
- stimulates the immune system, manifested in the formation of multinucleated cells, monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes T and B. immunoglobulin and cortisol.
- Improves impulse conduction in nerve fiber and decreases the dismielinización.
- During treatment of diseases, do not form antibodies against the venom of bees and thus the human body is not accustomed to it. The Repeated stings or injections of apitoxin in the body are becoming more effective.
- At doses close to toxic, can alter the normal regulatory processes, inhibits the descending and ascending reticular activity and exerts a strong influence on the upper regions of central nervous system, including bark hemispheres.
is the most active antibiotic substance from the familiar. Is 500 000 times stronger than any other known antibiotic.
A BIT OF HISTORY.
The first time they spoke was to APITERAPIA refer to the medical use of bee stings or apitoxiterapia.
But if we stop to make a little history, here is not because others do not have products apitherapists ancient history, as the use of propolis that did the ancient Egyptians, Romans, Persians and the Incas, like the wax and honey.
Just search the Ebers Papyrus (1700 BC) in the Torah (Pentateuch), Prophets and other books of the Bible, the writings of Aristotle, Pliny, Dioscorides, Galen, Hippocrates, Varro, Avicenna, and other scholars of antiquity to trace the known history of Apitherapy products from the hive.
The doctor Philipp Terc, father of apitoxiterapia. Austrian, had to face the academic dogma of the nineteenth century Vienna. Terc
1844-1915) born on March 30 in Praporiste, Bohemia, was suffering from severe rheumatism and joint pains. One day sitting in his garden, in 1868, was suddenly attacked by many bees and since then his pains began to disappear and the members gained new mobility.
Thereafter he devoted himself to investigate the cause of its amazing healing and spent 10 years doing experiments, although to be fought and ridiculed by his colleagues.
In 1878 and 1889 filed with the Imperial University of Vienna his remarkable findings on thousands of patients successfully treated, but found an audience hostile and intransigent to the point that Terc decides to leave Vienna for fear of being in a mental hospital. However, left as testimony to their research several publications and a book published in 1910.
After the rejection of Austrian scientific authorities of Terc investigations, other doctors in France, England and Germany, followed his methods and reaffirmed its conclusions.
is becoming increasingly widespread use of bee venom in the treatment of many diseases are dozens marketed preparations with apitoxina by the pharmaceutical industry. In 1920 Japan began acupuncture with bees, The Apipuntura.
has since continued the development of apitoxiterapia and now these are the main conditions treated with apitoxina.
Skin: eczema, psoriasis, topical ulcers, warts. Infections: laryngitis, mastitis.
Viral: Herpes simplex 1 and 2, warts.
Rheumatological: 100 times more potent than hydrocortisone anti-inflammatory effect of cyclophosphamide (Weissman).
osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, tennis elbow, bursitis.
Cardiovascular: Hypertension (Chronic and acute), arrhythmias, atherosclerosis, varicose veins.
Pulmonary: chronic pulmonary obstruction, emphysema, asthma.
Senses: Hearing loss, Vista, glaucoma, diplopia, iritis.
Orthopedic: stimulates bone healing.
Psychology: Depression.
Endocrine: increases the amount of sperm in bulls U. Penn (Dr. Alan Benton).
Nervous System: analgesic.

ALLERGY
apitoxin is important to know if a person owns or hypersensitivity to bee stings before starting any treatment. For this you can do a simple allergy test to check the anaphylactic reaction.
A 0.4 to 2% of people have a high sensitivity to Hymenoptera venom, including apitoxina. Although
happen very rarely, 3 known serious adverse effects of bee stings: Neurotoxic
1 .- (paralysis of the nervous system). Hemorrhagic
2 .- (increased vascular permeability of blood capillaries). 3 .-
hemolytic (destruction of red blood cells).
therapeutic procedure.
The bee venom therapy, once you made sure not to be allergic to it, produces no adverse side effect. No matter how long you have used.
is safe, effective and cost little. Can be applied directly to the patient bees that sting in the affected part of your body or use injections of the venom from the bees and stored in sterile powder until dissolved.
The main forms of implementation of the apitoxina are
- direct bee sting.
- standardized injection preparations.
- Ultrasound (phonophoresis).
- ionization.
- mechanical rubbing. Inhalation
- .
- Supralingual (under the tongue).
Here is a description of the other products of the hive: The well-known
honey originates from the nectar that is usually at the base of the petals of flowers. Honey is a concentrated carbohydrate energy or food, honeydew honey instead originates from honeydew secreted by some trees on their stems or leaves and to take the honey bee should be assisted by an insect called aphid that has a trephine Trompitos with which it opens the hole through which secretes sweet, bee retired after the insect eats the same, this is different from the honey nectar chemical constituents and logically its healing properties.
Propolis is a mixture of plant resins collected by bees from the buds of local plants or the tips of tree bark, which is available to meet your needs: a moldable putty or a varnish that bees spread inside the hive to adjust the size of openings and a physical layer to strengthen and waterproof the nest, and as a barrier to stop the invasion of the hive by microorganisms, for its antibacterial, antifungal, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and lift the defense system is an excellent medicine for humans and animals.
The pollen collected by bees is the source of protein, vitamins and fats that requires bees to feed the growing population of bees that make up the hive. The bees collect pollen generally in the same flowers where they collect nectar. For humans and animals is one of the best sources of protein and available at low cost for its use as a simple scoop per day supplies the daily protein requirements needed for good nutrition as well as good medicine for various health conditions.
Bee Bread is not predigested by the bee pollen, which stored in the cells of the honeycomb and coated with honey for preservation and is used for feeding calves. Being pre-digested by the bee brings different chemical characteristics in a term that the pollen collected and for therapeutic use has its specificities.
Royal jelly is a substance produced by bees (worker) young adults, they eat pollen and digest it. At an age when some particular glands in their heads produce a substance that looks a little yogurt with the nurse bees that these very young larvae feed for three days, also fed the substance to those designed for queens to birth what confer fertility and makes it grow twice the size of the working class. As we see is a remarkable substance in terms of food and therapeutic.
extract drone or drone, is made drone larvae extract and has a chemical composition similar to royal jelly, with the difference that is a source of male hormone or testosterone, while royal jelly is a source of or female hormone estrogen. Is known as Apilarnil lyophilized.
Beeswax is the main material of construction of the hive, the young bees secrete beautiful white flakes of wax glands on their abdomens. Chew on these scales, and shape them construct the set of pipes that form a hexagonal honeycomb. Beeswax has many therapeutic uses.
As we can see the hive is an amazing chemical laboratory, and its inhabitant the bee, an amazing healthcare worker have known about the composition, properties, therapeutic uses, etc., Of only one of its products, or poison apitoxina bee, knowing the vast information available about each of them, maybe possible in future deliveries.
