I believe everyone knows about propolis. It has the name of health preservation and is favored by many people. Propolis is rich in flavonoids and terpenes, and also has a variety of biological activities, which can inhibit the effects of bacteria in the body. So can vitiligo eat propolis?


Propolis is the resin collected from the buds and roots of the green plants and the secretions of the tongue glands and wax glands of the nectars, and processed to form a kind of gelatinous substance with aromatic taste, which is called propolis. Known as the "purple gold".


Normally, patients with vitiligo can consume propolis. If the physique is prone to allergies, it is not recommended to take propolis, because the composition of propolis itself is very complex, contains many different natural ingredients, it is easy to cause allergies, and severely may cause breathing difficult. In particular, allergies in patients with vitiligo will aggravate the condition of vitiligo, and the gain is not worth the loss.


Vitiligo patients who have no history of allergies can eat some propolis in an appropriate amount to reduce inflammation and detoxification. Eating it can promote cell regeneration, prevent skin from wrinkles, delay aging, and make our skin look smoother, rosy, and elastic. At the same time, it can assist in the rehabilitation of leukoplakia.


The efficacy and role of propolis:

1. Antibacterial and antiviral. Propolis has the effects of antibacterial, sterilization, disinfection, and mildew resistance, and has no side effects. Prevent the appearance of skin diseases in daily life.

2. Prevent tumors. Studies have shown that the substances in propolis can fight cancer and reduce the side effects caused by chemotherapy.

3. Anti-oxidation. Propolis is recognized as a natural antioxidant, and its flavonoids react with superoxide anions to play an antioxidant role. It can increase the body's ability to scavenge free radicals and prevent the oxidative damage of free radicals.


Warm reminder: When patients with vitiligo consume propolis, for safety reasons, they should try a small amount first, and then take it after there is no abnormality. In July, it's a dormant day. When you go out, remember to take sun protection measures to prevent sunburn from hindering treatment.
