On this week’s episode, we welcome Carly Stein. Once referred to as “that weird bee girl,” today Carly is the founder of Beekeeper’s Naturals, an incredible company that makes healthy, honey-related products in the most sustainable, ethical, and thoroughly-tested way. In this episode, we learn what it takes to sustainably harvest these products, why it’s so important to be selective about where your honey is coming from, and why supporting bees is one of the most incredible and necessary gifts you can give to the world. Carly’s interest in beekeeping was sparked when she experimented with bee products to heal her autoimmune diseases. Since then, Carly’s own medicinal experiments have become highly advanced, and Beekeepers Naturals have some of the most innovative products you could ever imagine. They have an antibacterial spray made from bee propolis, they make a nootropic with Royal Jelly, and, get this, they recently released CBD-infused honey! They do all this magic using sustainable harvesting practices with a team of genuine honeybee advocates. If you want to be whipped up into the wondrous world of bees and the diverse healing powers of bee products, then this episode is a sweet one for you. CLICK HERE for the full transcript.
