NectarEase contains only two materials: Honey and Bee Venom. The honey is a creamed blend of Manuka honey and other honey, with Manuka constituting between 60-65% of the raw material before processing.
The bee venom component is considered to be the active compound in the product. The venom composition and strength varies between honeybee species and small variances are even identifiable inter-specifically between races and locations. The bee venom used in the NectarEase product is extracted exclusively from the Apis Melifera species of honeybee.
The following table expresses the composition of venom from a honeybee worker as stated in the findings of two separate studies (Dotimas and Hilder, 1987 (1); Shipolini, 1984 (2)). These components were measured as a percentage of dry venom, with water makes up approximately 88% of venom before drying.
