Does anyone have any ideas on how to eat bee pollen? I've put it in my oatmeal and on my toast and into my tea

BTW does anyone know if putting it into hot tea lowers it's nutritional value?

Usually cooking any type of 'food' depletes some of its nutritional value.





What exactly does bee pollen taste like, if it has a taste? If it doesn't have much of a taste, then I would guess you could pretty much sprinkle it on anything before you eat it.





Try it on a salad, on top of fish, on your ice cream, on rice, a bagel, dust the top of a cake with it instead of using powdered sugar.....
Reply:So when I used to take bee pollen I don't remember it having a very strong taste. I remember it being kind of dry and chalky and in relatively small grains. So if this is the case with your bee pollen, what I suggest is putting it some kind of drink, probably juice or something strong or high in citrus, then stir it up with a spoon. I know it wont dissolve but what it will do will suspend the bee pollen in the drink. So while it's suspended in the drink, just down it. This is what I did and it was a painless way to get my bee pollen in me. The taste of the drink is the same it just has some little grains in it.
Reply:Red: I am not sure what you are calling "bee pollen" Pollen is produced by plants, as part of their reproductive process. Pollen is not produced by bees. Bees may catch some pollen on the little hairs of their legs as they visit flowers........are you speaking of raw honey?


If so, you can put raw honey on toast, on tea, on oatmeal, or just take it by the tablespoon. Some people say that raw honey helps with pollen allergy, but the pollens that bees frequent on their quest to make honey are yellow, heavy, and waxy....the pollens that cause allergy are white, very light, and are blown around in the air. They are not made by plants that bees visit......but honey sure is tasty!
