We all want a better way to stay well—especially in wintertime. That’s why Beekeeper’s Naturals craft nearly every product with propolis: the medicine of the beehive that contains immune-supporting vitamin C, zinc, iron, B vitamins, and more. We didn’t stop with immune support, though: Our products also fight brain fog, energize your workouts, and promote complete gut health… all with natural products backed by science and sustainably sourced from the beehive.

To help you navigate a season where it’s hard to feel your best, we’ve rounded up three easy ways to give your immune system some love this winter season.

Tip #1: Eat the rainbow

“Eat the rainbow” is one of those clichéd pieces of nutrition advice that actually holds up. Diets that are rich in many colors also happen to be rich in vitamins and minerals—which are essential to immune function. Research shows that a diet high in fruits and veggies reduces inflammation and improves immune function. So make sure you double down on greens, spuds, and fruit until spring. (Bonus for eating bee-pollinated plants like avocado, broccoli, melons, and apples.)

Tip #2: Go all-in on bee-powered health

While nearly every bee ingredient packs vitamins, minerals, and compounds, we recommend spraying our B.Immune Propolis Throat spray four times a day to strengthen your immune system. Every bottle is made with 85mg of sustainably-sourced bee propolis that contains antioxidants and other immune-boosting compounds in every spray.

Tip #3: Make time for aerobic activity

Aerobic activity (think: fast walking, jogging, or biking) has been shown to bolster immune health by potentially weakening viral infections. So make sure you give yourself plenty of time to squeeze in a workout (and enjoy all those feel-good endorphins, too). If you need a little extra kick of energy, try a spoonful of B.Fueled Bee Pollen right before your workout and refuel with B.Powered Superfood Honey once you’ve stretched and showered.
