👉 The royal fluid, also known as the "royal jelly" or "Queen's milk," is a nutrient-rich substance produced by the queen bee during her larval stage. It is secreted from specialized glands in her abdomen and contains high levels of proteins, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, making it exceptionally nutritious. This fluid is crucial for the queen's health and longevity, as it significantly contributes to her extended lifespan, which can reach up to five years in the wild. The royal fluid also plays a vital role in the development and maintenance of the queen's reproductive system, ensuring her ability to lay thousands of eggs throughout her life.
