Bee Wax
In stock
Beeswax is a natural secretion from wax glands on the sides of the body of honey bees and is used primarily as a building block for the bees’ comb cells in which the young are raised and honey and pollen are stored. To stimulate the production of beeswax, the honey bees feed themselves with honey and huddle together to raise the temperature of the cluster. To produce one pound of wax requires the bees to consume about ten pounds of honey.
As medicine, beeswax is used for lowering cholesterol and for relieving pain. It is also used for swelling (inflammation), ulcers, diarrhea, and hiccups.
In foods and beverages, white beeswax and beeswax absolute (yellow beeswax treated with alcohol), are used as stiffening agents.
Beeswax works well in cosmetic products because of the “wax esthers” that exist in both beeswax and human skin.
