What is the origin of Propolis?

Propolis is a sticky, waxy substance that bees make from resin that they extract from buds of trees (mainly from poplar, birch, elder, willow, lime and conifers).

The bees process this resin with their salivary enzymes and mix it with beeswax and pollen under the formation of a golden-brown to reddish-brown substance, propolis.

Propolis is hard and brittle at cold temperatures, softens above 30°C and melts around 60°C - 70°C. Propolis is Greek and means suburb, which indeed indicates a protective barrier.

Indeed, bees use propolis to seal cracks and holes in the hive, strengthen the combs (larval cell houses) and keep them germ-free, ensure a constant optimal temperature and protect the bee colony from invading germs, insects and foreign substances.

Propolis appeared as early as the time of the Egyptians, who used it in embalming the deceased.
Incas knew propolis mainly for its soothing effect on the airways.
The Greek Aristotle applied it mainly to support the skin's regenerative powers.
