- Royal jelly is a secretion made by honeybee workers to feed larvae of future queen bees. All bees consume royal jelly, but once a queen is selected, workers then feed on pollen and honey, while only the queen feeds on the prized jelly. Referred to as the "superfood of the beehive," royal jelly contains much more nutrients than honey and is 20 times more expensive. Since the 1980s, production worldwide has grown from 700 to nearly 4,000 metric tons. Royal jelly can be found in its natural form, as a health supplement, or in skincare products, and it can reach $125 per pound. But extracting royal jelly requires great precision, as the process can only be done by hand.

Why Royal Jelly is So Expensive | So Expensive Food | Insider Business
Saying it’s expensive because of the nutrients is off. It’s expensive because it’s rare and takes much more effort to extract
Most of the videos in this channel will qualify your response. You do not have to make by hand where you do not have to!
It's more accurate to say that it's expensive because of the effort, but it's popular because of the nutrients and perceived benefits.
@@vdias No way, most ppl don't even care about nutrients. Remember when pink sauce got popular and it's rotten milk. As long as it's RARE or VIRAL. That's all that matters.
It’s not rare, it’s just difficult to get large amounts
@@dododostenfiftyseven4096 😂😂
For those who aren't aware, it isn't ordinary honey bees that are hurting the most, although they have taken a hit. The real threat is the global collapse of solitary bee populations, which take care of a significantly larger portion of their local ecosystem than honey bees do. Very few people actually know this and hearing so many channels talking about the threats to honey bees is discouraging, because the only reason they're the ones being propped up is because we profit from them. I wish more creators and public representatives took notice of solitary bees and tried to find methods to help.
Yes, and not just solitary bees other pollinators are also on decline for various reasons. Honey bees can also be detrimental to the ecosystem, since humans replace native plants with food crops and farmed honey bees that pollinates those crops ending up outcompeting native pollinators. Few methods i can think of to help native pollinators is by not using insecticides, plant native plants and or let your land grows wild plants (and let the ecological succession happens), abolishing monoculture practices and shift to polyculture (like food forest), etc.
It seems like bees require wild flowers and mushrooms to survive. Loss of forests is creating an environment with less mushrooms and it's causing health issues within many hives but mostly commercial hives
I didn't know this, very important info to leave out!
@@morgana8037 watch the video I pasted below and you'll be shown "what's the problem". Honey bee is one species of as many as 20,000 bees worldwide, many of which are specialised for pollinating specific flowers. Without those wild bees (and other pollinators!) many plant species will go extinct or suffer. Honey bee is not the solution.
If all bees go extinct, you lose your food security, so I'd say bees are priority, we canoot exist comfortably without them. Selfishness will bite us in the butt sooner or later.
@@morgana8037 don't be stupid, without bees there'll be lesser plants, which means lesser food for us. It also means an increased possibility of extinction of various other plants, indirectly impacting all animals, including us. Think a bit holistically before commenting bullcrap.
For those wondering, its does not taste like honey at all. Its bitter and tastes a little like spoiled milk.
I've been following this channel for a long time, and it disgusts me how many "snake oil" industries there are. They might give people jobs, but they're very harmful in other ways.
Many of them seem to be concentrated on spirituality and placebo, which while I respect people's beliefs, it'd be nice if they had some scientific substantiation.
@@nahor88 it's not snake oil. Actual tests and studies empirically show that it improves testosterone especially in menopausal women. The effects seen in men are not significant, though mood improvement is seen among the majority of non-placebo individuals. I believe there's both Japanese and Iranian research papers on it.
But for real, the genuine royal honey tastes like pinesol lol. Likely a high amount of phytoncides, at least that was the japanese theory.
@@Growmetheus yup, good old phytoncides aka the chemical that triggers the infamous Natural Killer
Specialty WBC
@@Growmetheus Those benefits can be found in way cheaper and more practical alternatives that are WAY less harmful to the ecosystem. Again, snake oil.
Love that people see it potentially helps queen bees live longer and are just like "if it works for bees then surely it'll work for me!"
yeah people are idiots
it works on gullible people, actually the whole alternative medecine bullshit feeds off people's vulnerability
The harvester they interviewed is pushing 50. Something is working! 😜
@@RSMoreno seriously! Look at that guy
@@RSMoreno your kidding right??? That’s not unusual for Asian people, they tend to go grey later. Also 50 isn’t that old. . .
Uh, ok as a beekeeper here in FL, I’m not so sure that Royal Jelly has any more nutrients than your average multivitamin so its not expensive because of its super food qualities. If anyone knows what it takes to rear queen bees you would realize that the price comes from the effort it takes to raise and trick a colony into making multiple queen cups in one hive. As they usually only make one, MAYBE two when the queen dies or the colony rejects her for sub par work and egg laying. Queen Bee rearing companies have to monitor the bees every single day, sometimes multiple times a day to make sure the bees are making queen cups, and make sure they know where all the queen cups are at (which is why they seem to use a queen cup template) because if a queen is missed and it is raised into a full fledged queen, that queen will then hunt down all other queens and kill them in their cups. How they get them to make as many as we just saw in just ONE colony (looked to be dozens in just one colony) is an intricate and painstaking process. THAT is where the price comes from.
Multivitamins are highly processed, which I believe takes away some of the benefits. Royal bee jelly, as far as I know, isn't processed. At least the jelly my grandma took wasn't. She took royal jelly and natural super b-complex vitamins, and was never on any prescription meds. She lived to 96, she just passed last month, peacefully in her sleep.
I'm not saying it was definitely the jelly, but I think it did help. It may not work for everyone, but I think it did help my grandma. Love you Granny G!
It is antimicrobial in nature. It stimulates your immunity. It fights all types of diseases. Royal Jelly also stimulates stem cell production by about 50% increase.
@@devinnorsworthy9154 source? trust me bro.
@@devinnorsworthy9154 "It is antimicrobial in nature. It stimulates your immunity." Funny how any actual medical study shows it does nothing. You ate bee snot for no reason.
@@smileygladhands I'm sure your granny G is happy in heaven on the computer God got her so she can read what you posted.
This is a rare episode where the worker has complete control of the crop and the price. They really sound so expert and gradually improving the method which then improves the quality of the product and the price. Many other episodes in this series convey more of the struggles of the worker and the industry. These honeybee workers really work hard and work smart at the same time.

Without context it sounds so wrong
A beekeeper calling bees a "magical creature" is as wholesome as it gets. What a beautiful little docu!
Lies again? Reflection Journal Most Handsome
I guess so, but the actual act is taking baby bees/larva, putting them in an artificial environment to where the developed bees to give it food, then killing the larva after a few days so you can have the food instead. It’s a bit messed up. I’m not a fan of bugs, but I would hardly call this wholesome. I do like that the farmers seem to have an appreciation of bees, but it is exploitative. Not many options for work in China though so it is what it is
@@KBcollision humans have exploited animals since the dawn of time. With the beekeeper talking like that, I would assume that he does his work with more appreciation and care than someone who's just in it for money or lack of opportunity.
@@Sjalabais your words do not conflict with mine. But if we were to talk about whether history justifies continued practice, I would likely disagree with you
@@KBcollision That's a fair point! I love honey, but I've never tasted this particular product. If there is a way for bees and humans to coexist without killing larvae, I'm all for it.
This is incredibly impressive work tbh, major respect to the farmers that harvest this, it’s incredibly hard
yea, that's why it's sOoOoooOo expensive, because labor is involved and people of this generation can't or don't do manual labor, and inflation makes everything that has manual labor behind it so expensive.

White stuff excreted by bees. So basically bee sperm.
That's food for thought for sure.
For anyone who's curious, rapeseed is essentially canola. Wild rapeseed contains some things that make it unhealthy to consume regularly and unfit to feed to livestock. So a bunch of Canadians (which is where the "can" in canola comes from) developed canola which is considered safe. There's also colza, which in some languages refers to rapeseed and canola in general, but is also used for non-food grade rapeseed oil.
RAPESEED?
@@xenomorphoverlord Yup
It's only called 'canola oil' in North America.
It's called rapeseed oil in the rest of the (English speaking) world.
The name was changed as part of a marketing scheme to increase sales of the oil by changing the name from something that Americans associated with heinous crime to something much more innocent sounding.
The oil itself is the same, and the plant is called the same thing, it's just two different names for the same oil
@@nectarinetangerineorangei believe the Canadians bred the strains of rapeseed that contain way less erucic acid in the seeds then normal rapeseed. Erucic acid in oil is the stuff harmfull to muscles of heart. It is not present in nectar or pollen in elevated amounts though and bees do not put raw pollen and nectar into royal jelly directly anyway.
Canola oil is a healthy oil since it's of the unsaturated variety of fat
Honestly after watching this the first time in my life im saying that something should be even more expensive than it already is
It's definitely worth! My grandmother only eats this honey and she's now 4000 years old.
Lots of stuff in this video that's inaccurate. All bee larvae are fed royal jelly, queens are just fed significantly more of it. The better feed at larval stage is what allows the queen bees ovaries to develop and mature. The workers aren't infertile because they consume honey pollen. Actually workers can lay eggs, but because workers don't mate they don't have the chromosomes to produce anything but male bees. They also keep using footage of aisian giant hornets (murder hornet) when they mention queens. Royal jelly isn't more expensive because of the nutrition, but because it's very labour intensive to produce. I am a beekeeper. I'd like to see the references for the "studies" mentioned.
Thanks, I would need to write this myself.
PREACH!
Glad someone had mentioned this. Made a similar comment before reading yours.
Exactly, all bee larvae are fed royal jelly. But only the queen eats it all her life.
It is more expensive because of supply and demand.
@2:59 When narrator mentions "drones" they show the image of a worker bee (female) carrying pollen on its pollen baskets. This is inaccurate. Drones (males) do not do any work whatsoever. They are a resource sink for the hive, which is why they are tossed out of the hive to starve to death at the end of the season.
I was looking for this comment. I kept saying to myself, that was definitely a female worker they showed not a drone smh
@C.P. totally great observation at 2:59, but roll the camera back 3 seconds back at 2:56 and pause it. Look at the Varroa mite on the worker bees back. #1 reason for most honey bee colony deaths but no mention of it on this video...
@@Barnesyrasta You actually expect this clickbait channel to do any research?
7:25 looks like something straight out of a ghibli movie

Yet he puts in fetus to be killed everyday AMAZIN
“Queens live 50 times longer than other bees” shows b-roll of hornets
Lol😅
You can notice from the video, the price is not as high as you would normally expect from this series. The high price mainly comes from the labor cost, and due to the nature of this product, the bloom season. With a little marketing effort which is just like ginseng with later is more well known in Asia.
Just take manuka honey as an example, think about how "special" it is. Comes from special trees, needs heli to transport to a remote local at a specific time, and gov certified mark. All these just bump the price and make the manuka honey special.
Maybe over 20 years ago, my grandma give me two bottles of this, but I never try to consume these, but just kept them frozen in the refrigerator I think it is due to the lack of sugar, and does not taste good.
I have some in refrigerator too
Just a heads up, but you don't need to refrigerate honey. There have been jars of honey found in Ancient Egyptian tombs that were still perfectly safe to eat. It never goes bad.
@@siaskies1704 you are right about honey, as most of the content are sugar. At least for general honey, it should have about 10% water and over 80% sugar.
But for royal jelly, over 60% are water and only 10 percent are sugar. So you will indeed need to refrigerate them.
Even the ridiculously expensive Manuka honey isn’t 100% real….. I paid 125 bucks for a tiny bottle and compared it with the 250 dollar and 50 dollar one. (All overpriced honey to be clear) straight up fraudulent
this was very informative I was actually surprised that they didn't portrait these bee keepers negatively just because they are Chinese. You know what I mean, yes you do.
😂 yea I am surprised too but checking out the comment I think they didn't have to cause there are enough negative sentiments to fuel the hate anyways. 😂 Just a regular bee keeper explaining about how to harvest royal jelly, which I think his company's main product is still the regular honey.
I admire this man's dedication. His parents are proud. Thanks for sharing. His accent sounds country
A good point was made about how the larvae being killed is causing scrutiny since bee populations are declining but at least they're still eating the larvae rather than just killing it and throwing it away just to get the royal jelly, at least in this example anyways
Only wild bee population is declining, the farm bees are perfectly fine.
It doesn't matter if even a hundred larvae die, they are replaced almost instantly. A queen can lay 3,000 eggs a day in a healthy hive, the larvae won't be noticed really. It's better if they don't die, but it won't matter.
@@lukiValent
Yeah, that's a classic misconception, the domesticated ones aren't the issue. I mean when people talk about the declining bird population nobody's talking about future chicken wings either.
@@lukiValent this
@@lukiValent Honeybees are actually one of the reasons for that, not only pesticides. They outcompete the wild bees.
2:56 That bee has a Varroa Destructor on it. It's that red spot on it abdomen. They are a common parasite that infects bees.
its wild how many things bees do and make
I bought this in Albania four years ago and costed a fortune when thinking about the prices there. It has been used since ancient times and yes, it is promoted as something containing lots of nutrients. My mum called it, the milk of bees, which I thought she was mistaken as such thing didn't exist, but yes, apparently it did. The taste is amazing and it did cure my sore throat, but besides that, I don't know if it had any health effects.

"this sticky,white,milky cream"
Bruh
Wow! 🐝 Never knew the buzz about Royal Jelly! 🍯 Mind-blowing!
its not just queen bees who eat it, bee larvae also eat it when they are growing but then they switch to honey and bee bread. Queen bees keep eating it which is what makes them special
The royal jelly are high demand on skincare/supplements products rather than just consume on its own. So you probably won’t realised but you might have using these on your daily life.
Especially the royal jelly also called “蜂皇漿” has been known for ages in eastern asia like china,japan,korea,taiwan etc for it’s recovery purposes. So it is very common to use on mask, creams or essence or supplements for repairing purposes.
@@kristymong90 and tiger pennis powder and doplphin fin extract, chinksectoids are disgusting and non-human, eating everything aroumd them to extimction because of superstitions
yea, my impression of royal jelly is they're not for food, but for medicine and cosmetics
@@kristymong90 It has no health benefits.
these beekeepers have achieved gigachad status by handling bees bare-handed
I now understand why the really old ladies in my village in Western Kenya used to take the young larvae filled cells ("amaana") and consume them with honey and the jelly (used to wonder what the substance was)
I talk to the bees in my two hives everyday. You do start to have feelings for them. I’m very protective of my colonies.
Is it just me or when I hear someone say it’s a really crazy expensive price I think it will be a very crazy price like $10,000 a pound. $125 a pound is a good price for the labor and niche that isn’t common. I mean who’s out there making royal jelly on a industrial scale?
It's probably fake bro. Knowing the Chinese it's probably not even "royal jelly" and I'm sure the "larva" are maggots.
@@spammerscammer You have to be trolling

ikr
like why did it start like that
@@Cantmancant they prob know what they r doing
It always comes down to the production method than actual benefit of the product.
People hear “bee” and immediately think of honeybees. Honeybees arent immediately endangered by urbanization and they don’t make up a majority of pollinators in the ecosystem. The real threat is to Solitary Bees, or bees that live by themselves without a Hive. These include Carpenter Bees, Field Bees, Leaf Cutting Bees, and the like. They rely on trees and plant life to survive, and urbanization hurts them the most.
That dude doesn’t look 70! Holy crap. He’s got to be a clone or something!
Fungicides are typically applied ro rapeseed in early bloom stage so its easy to imagine these chemicals accumulating in bee products.
The very first time I ever heard about Royal Jelly was in a short story by Roald Dahl.
I was suspicious of it's claims of being a superfood, etc (Still suspicious).
But it is good to see beekeepers specialize and take advantage of it.
i love that story. it's precisely why i tuned in to watch the video. 👍🏻
Superfood? It's not! Royal Jelly if consumed may cause Anaphylaxis (Hyper allergic reaction), itching, hives etc. People also claim Pollen Grains as a Superfood. There're tablets and gel made out of pollen for human consumption. Also it is believed to enhance Horse stamina during horse racing... These are absurd facts strategized for quick selling of something that's not even meant for human consumption... 🤣🤣
@@kevinclifton8276 most of these video can be sum up by rare, expensive, super food and/or alternative medicine. The same as how you would sum up snake oil.
Oh I forgot to include scam in there.
omgg is it the one where a father feeds his daughter royal jelly and then the daughter turns into a bee?
Makes sense that it takes so long to get a small amount of the royal jelly,
I read an article before that says each honey bee makes 1/8 teaspoon honey in their entire lifetimes
Seems it could be more efficient if they added pins to the back, or a peg key, to push the jelly out.
Not sure if that was all footage from those hives or if some stock footage was also added, but some clips seemed to show a serious varroa problem.
Why so expensive? Most Best series on TH-cam.
First 6 seconds & im flattered with the way they’re talking about me 🥰
This would seem like a good plot point for Bee Movie 2
Its honestly surprising how its not even more expensive, considering how niche it is and how finicky and tedious that looks to produce. Seems like something that could be automated eventually.
Quite unlikely that it could be automated. A lot of the movements require microadjustments on the fly to prevent killing the larvae during the grafting process. While during the harvesting process the larvae are so small that the kind of sophisticated machinery required would cost more than they produce.
Supply and demand. No one wants to eat that shit
That's because it's not as niche as it seems. There is a HUGE market for royal jelly in East Asia.
@@ReizePrimus Why not? bee's are automation, you could totally build a mechinised system to care for the hives, don't use a needle to get them out but suction. Our tech is pretty sensitive now a days that it could detect all it needs and only machines get stung.
First though is you need to train the bees to see a giant barn as thier "hive city" to participate.
@@shawnbell3468 They can't, its just not economically feasible. Beekeeping as well as any for of animal husbandry and agriculture can't magically produce more with mechanization. There is an upper limit to the amount of honey and jelly bees can physically produce in a given season.
If mechanization could reduce the cost of production or made more honey, the industry would have already done so decades ago. But they haven't because the machines will just cost more to buy and maintain than any amount of honey and jelly they'll ever be able to produce.
Bees truly are magical creatures.
"sticky white milky cream" perfectly describes something else that isn't made from bees
fr
10:45 not just excessive pesticides, but fake fertilizer. One common of is to use lead nitrate in place of ammonium nitrate, giving the soil the requisite nitrogen but reducing all future crops with each usage.
Yea pesticide abusion is a global issue. Hence I support GMO to lower pesticide usage .. but so far the one that became classic case study was GMO soybeans that were engineered to withstand higher levels or pesticides/herbicides 😑😑😑
While indeed the bee population is declining it's not the honny bees we should worry about but the thoudands of other wild varieties. There isn't much harm done in this bussiness rather theu're actually sustaining their own colonies of bees.

Strangely they seems to forget to mention the dozens of empty sugar syrup barrels on the field, nor the fact that bees bred for massive royal jelly production are so fragile that needs to be constanty under antibiotics

A milky white substance that has a pungent taste? That's not royal jelly I am afraid...
great intro
???? We not gonna act like that it’s not just bee cu-
I should definitely try this. I too want to be able to live 7 years and lay 3000 eggs in a day
Well it goes same with humans who eat mostly sugars everyday, they don't last as long as those who have healthier diets with less carbohydrates.
Maybe the queen bee lives so much longer because it's pampered like a queen and doesn't have to do much work? Lmao
I wonder if the bees become aware of his smell and recognize him.
I feel sad for the bess
I understand but at the end of the day it is just another business. Humans have been domesticating and taking advantage of other animals for thousands of years. I see this as being no worse than killing animals for food and many times better than the commercial fishing ships destroying our oceans.
@@fqre9200 yeahhh so ever herd about bess pollinating shit?so yeah u he dead with out that just saying
So imagine this: A colony of bees is a super organism where everthing is micromanaged through vibrations, sounds and pheromones etc. The Queen Bee plays a huge role in the hive not just because she is the queen per se, but because she and her pheromones signal to the hive, that everything is working and noone is in danger. Now imagine the constant stress of the worker bees who do not have a queen and are in desperate need of creating a new one, putting alot of resources and effort into raising one just to get it taken away because of the goodie juices. Farming for royal jelly is so unethical, it hurts. But bees are just insects, like what do i know. (I dont want to start a "whataboutism" thread because there are more unethical animal farming facilities out there. We all know. But i felt, not many knew about bees)
The cherry on top: It is not even proven, that royal jelly is the cause of a mere bee egg turning into a queen bee. (All larvae are fed RJ from day 1 to 3) Some studies suggest, that its even the other way around. When a larvae gets honey to feed, they change into worker bees. The absense of RJ and addition of honey starts something called DNA methylation, essentially changing the activity of some dna strings without changing the dna in itself and thus turning the bee larvae into a worker bee.
BUT. The last fact is all information i have read online, so i can not vouch for 100% accuracy, though i would keep this in mind. The first argument alone is enough for me to not adore royal jelly. I just started beekeeping last year in june and it broke my heart when one queen died this spring and they tried to raise a new one. Their behavior was tremendously different than with a healthy queen, super nervous, loud and more on the aggressive side. Now imagine this stress 24/7.
Have a great day and plant some flowers for your native wild bees, they need love as well
People her in the comments seem to have a huge misconception of why things are more expensive than others...
Its Quantity / Demand. Because of the claimed high nutritions, the demand is high, and the high work required reduce the quantity. Its a combination of both, that makes it expensive.
He does not look 70 years old. He looks healthy and great skin. Even exposed to direct sunlight from harvesting, wow great royal jelly supplement.
Is he 70? He said he’s been harvesting honey for more than 30 years and he started when he’s 16, so that would make him older than 46 but did it say he was 70?

I am impressed with the way royal jelly is harvested.
Is it possible to buy from this farm?

Wow. The worker get 35$ per kg and the customer has to pay 250. Thats a great margin!
and the bees had to work their entire life without pay
Wow 100% pure royal jelly
Tried royal jelly before. The taste is horrendous, it's a bit spicy and honestly the texture is exactly like a certain white substance our fellow human males can secrete as well. Not worth the price, might as well just buy honey instead of spicy white stuff
So royal jelly is literally just bees unintentionally mimicking average human male cum in both look and taste but with high nutritional value as an added benefit?😂
You've tasted the white substance human males secrete then?
It definitely looks like that certain white substance... haha. I don't think I could eat this...
ಠಿ_ಠ
Wait ✋ people eat royal jelly? Isn't that for the queen of the hive ?
10 minutes in
we are all QUEEN BEES
Yasss kween
Yes, and honey is for larvae, and milk is for baby cows, and eggs are for bird embryos. Humans still use them. How is this a new concept for you?
@@simonsaysism you royal jelly is different from honey right ?
That would be amazing if they discovered something like that that made you live 50 times longer imagine that
rapeseed plants need to be planted more often, they save the bees, they can be used for biodiesel and rapeseed oil is better for cooking food then other oils
