👉 Bee fluid, also known as royal jelly or bee glue, is a complex mixture of proteins, amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and enzymes produced by worker bees. This fluid serves multiple purposes in the hive, including nourishing the queen bee, supporting the development of larvae, and enhancing their immune systems. When bees collect nectar from flowers, they mix it with enzymes to break down the sugars into a more digestible form, which is then stored in their honey stomachs. Upon returning to the hive, they regurgitate this nectar-like substance, which is rich in nutrients, back to the worker bees. The queen bee consumes this fluid directly, which is crucial for her longevity and reproductive capabilities. Bee fluid's unique composition makes it a vital component of the hive's ecosystem, contributing to the health and productivity of the entire colony.
