Helena Health’s Pro-CAPE30+ Propolis Capsules contain 100% premium New Zealand propolis Scientists have shown flavonoids, caffeic acids and esters such as Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE) in propolis are responsible for its defensive properties, providing potent antioxidant protection and supporting the balance of the immune system.
What is Propolis?
Propolis is a broad-spectrum natural remedy that supports the maintenance of strong immunity.
Bees produce propolis by mixing plant resin with their enzymes, thus combining both natural defences substances developed by their individual immune systems with the plant-immune properties of the resin.
The purpose of the propolis is to create a sterile environment inside the hive to protect the bee colony from disease.
New Zealand's rich source of native plants and trees leads to bees producing propolis with novel properties compared to propolis produced in other countries.
What is CAPE?
CAPE is a bioactive compound that naturally occurs in some plants and can be acquired from propolis.
Since 1988 numerous scientific papers have been published reporting the outstanding health benefits of CAPE.
Researchers have shown CAPE to be one of the key compounds responsible for propolis’s health properties such as:
- Anti-inflammatory
- Anti-viral
- Anti-oxidant
- Neuro-protective
- Immuno-modulating
- Cyto-protective
CAPE by itself however has low bioavailability (meaning your body does not easily absorb it), however, according to professor Hiroshi Maruta when present in propolis matrix, CAPE work synergistically with other lipids and bioflavonoids making it 600 times more bioavailable.
