Shah Angbin
Royal jelly is the main food of the queen bee.
It is also the food for the first 3 days of bee larvae.
Worker or nurse bees are the result of larvae fed by King Engbin in the first 3 days.
But the queen bee emerges from the larvae fed on royal jelly in the first 5 days.
The nutritional value of Shah Angbin is amazing.
As the queen of honey bees lives more than 50 times than the type of worker bee.
Also, during its lifetime, it lays more than 2000 eggs per day.
These 2 points seem to be sufficient in determining the amazing nutritional value of royal jelly.
Contrary to popular belief, royal jelly is completely different from honey.
In fact, royal jelly is produced from the lower jaw glands of the worker bee.
Nurse or worker bees start producing royal jelly from 6 days old.
The production of royal jelly by these bees continues up to 15 days.
Then this responsibility is handed over to the next generation of bees.
The main source of the natural type of this gelatinous substance is flower pollen.
This extremely valuable food item is stored in hornets (inside the hexagonal nests of bee larvae).​​​​​​
Literally, this edible gel means "royal semi-solid substance".
Royal gel has other names such as Royal Gel (Shahane Gel), Shah Engbin, Bee Milk, Queen's Food (Queen's Food) and Elixir of Youth.
