CONSUMER INFORMATION
The Honey with
propolis, watercress and eucalyptus is an excellent
expectorant and combat with effectiveness the cough, because
join the watercress, a long time used in the feeding and
traditionally recognized by your action fluidifying of the
superior aerial roads, the eucalyptus that works as an antiseptic
and the propolis a natural antibiotic. The presence of the
honey provides a pleasant flavor and benefits the organism
with your properties.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
The watercress,
scientifically called Nasturtium officinale,
is a small original aquatic or semi-aquatic plant of Europe
and that is well acclimatized in Brazil. Yours fresh stems
and leafs are eatable, it has characteristic smell and bitter
flavor, slightly spicy. Presents in your constitution essential
oil (pheniletile iso sulfocyanat), mineral salts (P, Fe,
I, S and Ca), sulfur heterosids, vitamins (A, B2, D, C,
and PP), glycosides (glyconasturnin) and bitter principles.
It has notable bio-availability of sulfur in your molecule.
The watercress composition
allows the following functions: stimulant, tonic, healing,
depurative, anti-inflammatory, decongestant, digestive,
diuretic and antiscorbutic (rich in C vitamin).
The Uniflora produces
her own watercress extract, what allows that has a total
controls of the production conditions, the physical chemistries
and microbiological characteristics of it. Before being
incorporated to the honey, this extract is analyzed in our
laboratories and if necessary, it is concentrated to produce
a highly efficient final product.
The Eucalyptus
globulus (blue eucalyptus) are found in humid valley
of New South Wales and Victoria; it is a leafy tree and
great load; yours white-creamy flat peel is going peeling
off and renewing along the time; the juvenile foliage is
oval and of silver-bluish coloration. The used parts are
the leaves and the oil. The active components are volatile
oils, mainly cineol (eucalyptol), a composed terpene with
the typical scent of the eucalyptus, terpineol and pinene;
polyphonic acid (gallic, caffeic) and flavonoids (eucalyptin,
rutin). It is a aromatic herb, stimulant, decongestant and
expectorant, relaxes spasms and lowers the fever. Externally
is used in inhalations, to catarrh, bronchitis, sinusitis,
colds, and grippe; in liniments (liquid preparations for
application in frictions), for bruises, twists and muscular
pains; in ointments, for wounds and abscesses.
The 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 quality of the
propolis extract is controlled through the following parameters:
dosage of flavonoids contents (through analysis in spectrophotometer),
Brix degree, dry residue percentage, alcoholic graduation
and density. Our microbiology laboratory has a standard
methodology to test the anti microbes activity of the used
propolis, with the objective to control and to check the
antibiotic power of the final product.
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. It presents the following properties:
expectorant, fluidifying, healing and antiseptic.
The honey used in Uniflora
becomes by suppliers approved with constant accompaniment
of yours productions. All the lots when then receive in
the company are analyzed strictly, not only with reference
to the purity, but also to the hygienic conditions of extraction,
that guarantee the quality of the product.
