C C Pollen High Desert Bee Pollen Granules Bag - 1 lb

I have been taking our local bee pollen now for a few years. I generally take about about a teaspoon regularly except if I'm not feeling well I take much more but in smaller doses throughout the day. CC Pollen High Desert Granules seems to be more powerful. My husband also noticed that he felt increased energy after the first day. Excellent product and has a lighter more pleasant taste.

I've tried several different brands of bee pollen over the years and for me personally the High Desert bee pollen from CC Pollen Company of Phoenix Arizona taste great. There's no need to mix it with anything. I just grab a teaspoonful twice a day in-a-hurry on my way out-the-door, and it melts in your mouth! To me it tastes slightly sweet, and it disolves quickly and easily in your mouth. I store it in my freezer in a small plastic container (available from craft stores) for convenient opening and closing (instead of using the ziplock bag). The Amazon price is great, plus it's an item that can qualify for free shipping. Also, a side-effect that I've noticed is that regular use seems to reduce heartburn. I love it!!!

Purchased a 1 pound bag to add into my smoothies. I use bee pollen to desensitize for seasonal allergies. I grind up a portion to use. After reading the last and only bad review I wanted to put my 2 cents in. My sense of smell is a gift of my families genes and I smell all of my ingredients before adding to my drinks. The bee pollen I have bought smells like bee pollen with nothing added. The color is yellow and the granules are just that. I am a triathlete that trains for several full distance races a year. Having a runny nose and sneezing while on a bike is a mess. I think that bee pollen helps and that is why I am ordering another bag today. I don't know anyone from this company and I sure wish I got paid for writing this review, but I don't! I buy it from Amazon and that is my only connection. This product label clearly states that storing in the freezer, which I do, is best. v/r

I use bee pollen as part of my healty diet. I have read all the benefits and incorporate this product in smoothies in the morning. It has a very pleasant taste and a lot of people eat it by the spoonful. I find it a little grainy and prefer it mixed in something else. I have ordered this product before and the only complaint I have is that shipping takes a little longer than most other items I purchase through Amazon. This product is not shipped by Amazon and usually takes about a week to arrive. Most of the product I order from Amazon is is shipped through them and always arrives ahead of schedule. No big deal, but if you need this by a specific date, be sure to order in plenty of time. It was packaged well and arrived in perfect condition. I keep it in the freezer for optimum freshness.

It worked excellent for energy. How I used it is I first took a little at a time & I put it in my little blender & I put on the grind mill blade & I grind it up to a fine ground powder & then I sprinkle a tablespoon of it in my smoothies every morning & a tablespoon of it in my morning Wheatgrass & the ingredients for my wheat grass mix is a tablespoon of Wheat Grass Powder, a tablespoon of Raw Organic Honey, a tablespoon of Raw Organic Ginger Powder & 2 tablespoons of organic lemon juice, 2 Ice Cubes & then I blend all these ingredients in my mini magic bullet blender & then presto you have a fabulous healthy organic energy drink that is healthy for your body & does not damage your body like one of those regular energy drinks filled with poisons & it is way better & healthier for your body then a cup of coffee. When I make it for a lot of people, then I just increase the ingredient s size & then I put in my big blender & blend & then serve.Now if you don't have time for all of this you can just sprinkle it on yogurt or on oatmeal. Or just take a tablespoon of the ground up Bee Pollen & stir it into 1 full glass of water & then drink it. You can put it in a milkshake or what ever you like & watch your energy climb. It is good to take a dose of this right before you exercise. Anyway I hope this info helped some one!

I don't know how anyone could eat this stuff. I tried it raw at first and thought I was going to be sick, so I tried to disguise it in yogurt. Ha! That was not happening either. It tastes like you're eating grass and dandelions. (I remember the taste from when I was a kid.) I wish I could get past the taste because I would definitely love to reap the many benefits that come with eating it.As for the product itself, minus the taste, it was packaged perfectly and very fresh.
