For millennia, humans have turned to nature to heal themselves and enhance their well-being. At Propolia, we’ve chosen to restore the full value of a little-known yet extraordinarily powerful ingredient: propolis. This natural shield produced by bees is an endless source of benefits. Combined with royal jelly, pollen, and honey, it provides a natural solution to many everyday needs.
In fact, bees collect propolis to protect their hive from external threats: fungi, viruses, and bacteria. This plant-based resin, enriched by the bees’ enzymes, possesses exceptional antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties. Today, we harness these same properties to offer products that strengthen your immune system, soothe irritations, and care for your skin.
Propolis is known for its ability to stimulate the body’s natural defenses, which is particularly useful during seasonal changes when the body is more vulnerable. It works in synergy with other elements from the hive, notably pollen, which is rich in amino acids, antioxidants, and essential vitamins to support the body against oxidative stress.
Royal jelly, produced by nurse bees, is a true concentrate of vitality. It is particularly prized for its energizing and balancing effects on metabolism. Its high content of essential nutrients makes it an ideal ally for combating fatigue and maintaining overall balance.
Honey, in addition to being an excellent natural sweetener, offers numerous health benefits. Moisturizing, soothing, and antibacterial, it is used in both cosmetics and herbal medicine to improve the health of the skin and the digestive system.
It all began in 1975, when Marc-Alain Bernard, a passionate beekeeper, decided to set up his 600 hives in Occitanie. Fascinated by propolis—which was then considered mere hive waste—he undertook research to extract its most valuable active ingredients. In 1979, he developed a unique purification process that produced a highly concentrated, bioavailable form of propolis.
Since then, Propolia has continued to evolve. From its first propolis chewing gums —which became bestsellers—to natural cosmetics, the brand has successfully combined beekeeping tradition with scientific innovation. In 2017, the family-owned business was passed on to Marc-Alain Bernard’s five children, thus continuing a passion for bee products that spans generations.
The company has always made it a point of honor to adhere to rigorous manufacturing processes to guarantee the purity and effectiveness of the extracts used. Each batch of propolis undergoes thorough analysis to ensure an optimal concentration of flavonoids and phenolic acids—the key molecules responsible for propolis’s protective and purifying effects.
At Propolia, we believe in simple yet essential values:
