Propolis is a resinous and balsamic
substance, it has some coloration and several consistencies, varying to brown
color to dark green. It is produced by the bees from leave sprouts and resinous
exudates of plants, and used inside the beehive " to fix " honey-comb, to
lacquer the alveoli, to close breaches for the reduction of cold wind entrance,
and, mainly, to protect of the natural enemies: fungus and bacteria. It is also
be used to embalm small animals killed by the bees inside the beehive, which
could not be getting out, avoiding in this way their putrefaction.
The chemical composition of the propolis depends on the botanical ecology of
each area and by the bee race, but generally, it is compose of 50% of resin and
balm, 30% of wax, 10% of essential and aromatic oils, 5% of pollen and 5% of
several other substances. Until the moment they were already more than 200
chemical compounds identified in the propolis, like the flavonoids, aromatic
acids, terpenoids, aldehydes, alcohols, aliphatic acid and esters, amino acids,
steroids, sugar, etc. The intense studies on propolis reveal that these
compounds are for its several physiologic actions: anti-microbe (it works as a
natural antibiotic), anti-inflammatory, healing, anesthetic and antioxidant (it
combats the free radicals).
The honey is produced by bees from the nectar of the flowers. It is a rich food,
which presents in its composition simple sugars with fast assimilation on the
organism, mineral salts (potassium, sodium, calcium, phosphorus, iron,
manganese, etc.), amino acids, enzymes and vitamins.
The honey used by Uniflora comes from Brazilian Beekeepers associated and
approved with constant verification of the production. All the lots when

tannins, flavonoids (mentoside, luteolin, isoroifolina), menthol, cafeic acid,
among other compositions.
The mint extract, produced by Uniflora is submitted to physical-chemistries and
micro-biologics analyses, performed in our own laboratories through the whole
production process that assured high quality and the necessary fittings of
