Why Royal Jelly is So Expensive | So Expensive Food | Insider Business

Royal jelly is a secretion made by honeybee workers to feed larvae of future queen bees. All bees consume royal jelly, but once a queen is selected, workers then feed on pollen and honey, while only the queen feeds on the prized jelly. Referred to as the "superfood of the beehive," royal jelly contains much more nutrients than honey and is 20 times more expensive. Since the 1980s, production worldwide has grown from 700 to nearly 4,000 metric tons. Royal jelly can be found in its natural form, as a health supplement, or in skincare products, and it can reach $125 per pound. But extracting royal jelly requires great precision, as the process can only be done by hand.

    For those who aren't aware, it isn't ordinary honey bees that are hurting the most, although they have taken a hit. The real threat is the global collapse of solitary bee populations, which take care of a significantly larger portion of their local ecosystem than honey bees do. Very few people actually know this and hearing so many channels talking about the threats to honey bees is discouraging, because the only reason they're the ones being propped up is because we profit from them. I wish more creators and public representatives took notice of solitary bees and tried to find methods to help.

    Yes, and not just solitary bees other pollinators are also on decline for various reasons. Honey bees can also be detrimental to the ecosystem, since humans replace native plants with food crops and farmed honey bees that pollinates those crops ending up outcompeting native pollinators. Few methods i can think of to help native pollinators is by not using insecticides, plant native plants and or let your land grows wild plants (and let the ecological succession happens), abolishing monoculture practices and shift to polyculture (like food forest), etc.

    Uh, ok as a beekeeper here in FL, I’m not so sure that Royal Jelly has any more nutrients than your average multivitamin so its not expensive because of its super food qualities. If anyone knows what it takes to rear queen bees you would realize that the price comes from the effort it takes to raise and trick a colony into making multiple queen cups in one hive. As they usually only make one, MAYBE two when the queen dies or the colony rejects her for sub par work and egg laying. Queen Bee rearing companies have to monitor the bees every single day, sometimes multiple times a day to make sure the bees are making queen cups, and make sure they know where all the queen cups are at (which is why they seem to use a queen cup template) because if a queen is missed and it is raised into a full fledged queen, that queen will then hunt down all other queens and kill them in their cups. How they get them to make as many as we just saw in just ONE colony (looked to be dozens in just one colony) is an intricate and painstaking process. THAT is where the price comes from.

    Multivitamins are highly processed, which I believe takes away some of the benefits. Royal bee jelly, as far as I know, isn't processed. At least the jelly my grandma took wasn't. She took royal jelly and natural super b-complex vitamins, and was never on any prescription meds. She lived to 96, she just passed last month, peacefully in her sleep. I'm not saying it was definitely the jelly, but I think it did help. It may not work for everyone, but I think it did help my grandma. Love you Granny G!

It’s a bit messed up. I’m not a fan of bugs, but I would hardly call this wholesome. I do like that the farmers seem to have an appreciation of bees, but it is exploitative.

    Lots of stuff in this video that's inaccurate. All bee larvae are fed royal jelly, queens are just fed significantly more of it. The better feed at larval stage is what allows the queen bees ovaries to develop and mature. The workers aren't infertile because they consume honey pollen. Actually workers can lay eggs, but because workers don't mate they don't have the chromosomes to produce anything but male bees. They also keep using footage of aisian giant hornets (murder hornet) when they mention queens. Royal jelly isn't more expensive because of the nutrition, but because it's very labour intensive to produce. I am a beekeeper. I'd like to see the references for the "studies" mentioned.

The high price mainly comes from the labor cost, and due to the nature of this product, the bloom season. With a little marketing effort which is just like ginseng with later is more well known in Asia. Just take manuka honey as an example, think about how "special" it is. Comes from special trees, needs heli to transport to a remote local at a specific time, and gov certified mark. All these just bump the price and make the manuka honey special. Maybe over 20 years ago, my grandma give me two bottles of this, but I never try to consume these, but just kept them frozen in the refrigerator I think it is due to the lack of sugar, and does not taste good.

    People hear “bee” and immediately think of honeybees. Honeybees arent immediately endangered by urbanization and they don’t make up a majority of pollinators in the ecosystem. The real threat is to Solitary Bees, or bees that live by themselves without a Hive. These include Carpenter Bees, Field Bees, Leaf Cutting Bees, and the like. They rely on trees and plant life to survive, and urbanization hurts them the most.

There is an upper limit to the amount of honey and jelly bees can physically produce in a given season. If mechanization could reduce the cost of production or made more honey, the industry would have already done so decades ago. But they haven't because the machines will just cost more to buy and maintain than any amount of honey and jelly they'll ever be able to produce.

    This is one of the health foods that has some pretty dangerous potential and is very understudied. Royal jelly contains high levels of lots of different hormones and it’s unknown if these can interact with a human.

    I can't find any source that indicates that this is true. Hormones are naturally found in meat as well, but there are no links to hormones found in meat causing issues as a result of consumption. "Hormones" nowadays are used as scary buzzwords to stir fear, when ultimately there are not any studies that suggest that any can affect humans substantially. Consumption of royal jelly is not anything new, and the only negative effect it could have on a person is anaphylaxis as a result of an allergy. Please don't worry about this.

    So imagine this: A colony of bees is a super organism where everthing is micromanaged through vibrations, sounds and pheromones etc. The Queen Bee plays a huge role in the hive not just because she is the queen per se, but because she and her pheromones signal to the hive, that everything is working and noone is in danger. Now imagine the constant stress of the worker bees who do not have a queen and are in desperate need of creating a new one, putting alot of resources and effort into raising one just to get it taken away because of the goodie juices. Farming for royal jelly is so unethical, it hurts. But bees are just insects, like what do i know. (I dont want to start a "whataboutism" thread because there are more unethical animal farming facilities out there. We all know. But i felt, not many knew about bees) The cherry on top: It is not even proven, that royal jelly is the cause of a mere bee egg turning into a queen bee. (All larvae are fed RJ from day 1 to 3) Some studies suggest, that its even the other way around. When a larvae gets honey to feed, they change into worker bees. The absense of RJ and addition of honey starts something called DNA methylation, essentially changing the activity of some dna strings without changing the dna in itself and thus turning the bee larvae into a worker bee. BUT. The last fact is all information i have read online, so i can not vouch for 100% accuracy, though i would keep this in mind. The first argument alone is enough for me to not adore royal jelly. I just started beekeeping last year in june and it broke my heart when one queen died this spring and they tried to raise a new one. Their behavior was tremendously different than with a healthy queen, super nervous, loud and more on the aggressive side. Now imagine this stress 24/7. Have a great day and plant some flowers for your native wild bees, they need love as well

    @Gerry Teigland Eide I hear what you are saying and partly agree. But there's also the argument that we owe them safe homes that they can just do their bee thing in at the very least because we bulldozed so many of their natural hive sites in dead tree hollows. We should be treating these insects with absolute care and respect.
