07/04/2021, By RixieI am in kidney failure stage 5 and by family's advise that used this before, I bought this product. I was warned that the taste is bad, but when I got it, I was actually surprised because it it not that bad. Must say if you are desperate, like I am, the taste does not matter neither. I can not say yet that it works for my kidneys, but I am going for bloods in May and will definitely know by then. I can say for my family that used this, it definitely did wonders. What I did notice, it that it helps to heal wounds quick. I cannot wait to see my results in May when I go for the bloods.29/10/2019, By MicheleThis product may work, but I've found it way to difficult to get paste the vile taste. I just came across it again in my drawer as I have a cold and tried it again, this time in juice (before in water) but I quickly remembered why I have not been able to take this as a daily immune booster. The taste is just so bad and I'm someone who has managed to get a lot of horrid alternative meds down. Sad that I can't really advise on whether or not it works. Would be great if it could be taken in a capsule or tablet form.09/10/2019, By MishkaNeeds to be used on consecutive days no a once off cure. Taste is overwhelming though.30/07/2019, By Bees_kneesPropolis is the elixir to life, just mix with a table spoon of water, to overcome the strong taste20/03/2019, By SylmaQuite a strong taste. Really need to be motivated to take it orally, but I'll keep trying as I know it is all natural and the taste is what it is.23/02/2019, By FiefieI used it for ulcers. It worked faster and I would definitely be using it for the immune booster! I believe in Natural Remedies! Thanks
23/11/2018, By WBKThe alcohol was so overpowering. I had quite a bad bout of the flu and all this helped in doing was dry out my throat quite badly. A complete waste of my money.02/11/2018, By PiI love this product - it's amazing - my 6 year old even takes it even though its a bit harsh on the taste buds - we get better so quickly and we do not take pharmaceuticals as a rule. I use it for any and all illnesses and in between I use it for its immune system booster benefits.11/09/2018, By KirstenboschIt doesn't give you enough guidelines on how much to administer? i have only taken it once because i wasn't too sure on how much to take at a time and what is the best time of day to take it as well.08/08/2018, By CassieI was excited to try this product until I saw they use alcohol as the base, where as Simply Bee's Propolis Liquid has an oil base. So sad I wasted the money.11/05/2018, By GiuliaI love propolis, it's one of the most useful and versatile natural products you can find. Back in Italy my mom used to make me use it all the time when I was a kid, and finding it here made me so glad!
Wonderful quality, too.20/06/2017, By LeaThis is the purest form of Propolis I can find and let me tell you - it's AMAZING! A few drops a day and my skin looks like I've had some sort of cell rejuvenation therapy. It also makes a world of difference to my skincare products when added.13/06/2017, By SallyI've been taking this for 3 months now and I think it has definitely helped with my immune system and my overall health.26/05/2016, By SheenaAM trying this to boost our immune system for the winter months. Am hopeful having done a ton of research and only found good reports. Had a sore throat earlier this week which was taken care off, perhaps by something else however I did bounce back very quickly....much quicker than normal. So heres hoping.
