History

The use of propolis in popular medicine goes back to ancient Egypt times. Its properties
were already known in the treatment of a number of infections, sores and even in the
mummification processes. In the early days it has been scientifically studied as an
antifungal, antibacterial, and antiviral treatment in the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe,
and China.
In the end of the 80’s Japanese researchers have discovered new active compounds in
propolis with special properties. Nowadays we also know that propolis is a strong
stimulant of the immune system.
