Question 1

What's the difference between the original version and the "kids"?

Accepted Answer

Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out and your interest in our Propolis Sprays. We love both our Bee Propolis Throat Spray and our Propolis Throat Spray for Kids!

Both our Bee Propolis Spray (original) and our Propolis Throat Spray for Kids contain bee propolis, non-GMO vegetable glycerin, and purified water. The key difference between the two is that our kids propolis spray also contains buckwheat honey. Buckwheat honey is great for kids because it is full of antioxidants (one of the highest antioxidant counts of any honey) and it helps to sweeten-up the spray so kids will enjoy the taste just a little bit more! There is also an awesome study confirming the soothing abilities of buckwheat honey making it an ideal natural solution for little ones and earning a prime spot in our kids formula.

The kids propolis spray also contains slightly less bee propolis (77.5mg per 4 sprays vs. 85mg per 4 sprays in the adult propolis) and in Canada, we received a certification from Health Canada (granted after thorough review) for kids 2-12 years.

Please let us know if we can be of further help and thanks for your support.

Question 2

Why is the spray tasted sweet? I thought propolis resin doesn't taste sweet, only the honey does. Are there really only 3 ingredients in this spray?

Accepted Answer

bees make propolis from their saliva, beeswax (which is made partially from honey) and other natural items like tree sap.  Everything they make tastes slightly like honey.  Ever burned pure beeswax candles?  Smells exactly like warm honey.

Question 3

Could this be used in a dog

Accepted Answer

It has 2 ingredients. It states it does not have xylitol which is bad for dogs. With Propolis and vegetable glycerine it is ok for dogs. Propolis tincture can help protect dogs from canine flu, kennel cough, and other infectious illnesses. It can be applied to cuts, wounds, burns, bites, stings, hot spots, and lick granulomas (its bitter taste helps deter licking). However, its stickiness can complicate topical application.
According to the U.S Food and Drug Administration ('FDA') and the European Food Safety Authority ('EFSA') vegetable glycerine is classed as functional and safe when added in pet food as a preservative ingredient.

Question 4

What's the expiration date?

Accepted Answer

Hi there. Thank you for your interest in our bee propolis spray! The expiry date is 3 years from the date of propolis extraction but once you try it and experience the benefits, we highly doubt it will last that long :)
