Malaika Honey  - (currently stocking their Propolis) - Malaika means Angel in Swahili. Propolis resin is produced by bees from plant extracts mixed with the bees own enzymes. They use it as a disinfectant to keep the hive sterile.
We can use it as an antibiotic, it soothes inflammations, speeds up healing of wounds, eases micumatic pains, combats fungal infections and strengthens the body's immune system.
It can be used internally to treat colds, bronchitis, stomach ulcers, respiratory disorders, liver and kidney inflammation, ear, nose and throat infections and toothaches. Externally it will heal cuts, burns, boils, warts, scabies and other skin infections.
Beekeeping toward a better future with...
Hives Save Lives - Africa helps farmers in training, equipment and beehives to create their own self sustaining income generation. Malaika is actively involved in these activities with 10%of the profits going back into HSLA activities.
Involving ourselves at this level and ensuring a market at set prices we are reassuring farmers for a steady reliable long term solution to poverty.

Beekeeping is a suitable crop for the poor farmer in poverty alleviation and is eco-friendly. The use of intercropping is also promoted so that if one crop may fail another may be relied upon for household income. Integrated farming provides a rich nectar source for bees, bees increase yields through pollination and is a low cost form of eco-friendly income generation. We are currently working direct with farmers promoting these fundamentals.

Try Absolute Organic Beetroot Chips - Delicious or nutritious Biotta Organic Beetroot Juice!
                                                           

What is in Beetroot Juice?
Beetroot juice is rich in essential nutrients such as folate, potassium, and vitamin C. It is often used in juice fasts and juice detox diets, such as Hilde Hemme's Detox Diet. It is typically blended with other vegetables(Biotta Breuss Juice) to achieve certain health effects.

Benefits of Beetroot Juice

1) Beetroot Juice for Lower Blood Pressure

Drinking just over two cups of beetroot juice daily may help keep your blood pressure in check, according to a 2008 study. Within three hours of drinking 500 milliliters (about 17 ounces) of beetroot juice, volunteers showed a significant decrease in blood pressure. What's more, that drop in blood pressure was sustained for up to 24 hours after the juice was consumed. The study's authors (
Bailey et al, 2009) suggest that nitrate—a nutrient found in green, leafy vegetables in addition to beets—may be responsible for beetroot juice's blood-pressure-lowering effects.

2) Beetroot Juice for Better Stamina

In a small study published in 2009, scientists discovered that drinking beetroot juice may boost exercise stamina. For the study
(Webb et al, 2009), eight men drank 500 milliliters of beetroot juice daily for six consecutive days before undergoing a series of cycling-based fitness tests. Results showed that the participants were able to cycle for an average of 92 seconds longer after drinking beetroot juice (compared to their cycling time after drinking blackcurrant cordial for six consecutive days).

The researchers also observed that study members had lower resting blood pressure after drinking beetroot juice.

3) Beetroot Juice to Fight Inflammation

Beetroot juice may benefit obese people by curbing inflammation (a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer), according
to a study published in 2009 (Zielińska-Przyjemska et al). The study also showed that beetroot juice may fight free radicals (chemical by-products known to damage DNA).

Beetroot Juice Recipes
Since beetroot juice has such a strong flavor, it should be blended with other juices (such as carrot, apple, and lemon) before drinking.
